It's 100. Done deal. Lock it up.
I completely respect how difficult of a job it is and he will get it done. No doubt. Book itYou don't respect how difficult Pikiell's job is. It would be a minor miracle for any coach to lead us to the NCAAs

A C+ loll come on man. He walked into a dumpster fire and has landed multiple 4 star recruits and 4 star transfers. Juco All Americans. Already another 4 star for next year. What was he going to walk into the EJ embarrassment and land a top 25 class right away? If his recruiting has been this good on a last place team just imagine once the product on the court starts winningI said 60% only because it was the next highest option above 50/50. But really, it all depends on his recruiting and I'd give it a C+ so far.
I'm not comparing Rutgers to Rutgers history. I'm comparing Rutgers to the rest of Div I, which is whom we're competing against for 1 of 68 spots.A C+ loll come on man.

1. We already on that path. The beginning of the path but definitely on the right pathYou have to get 3 things right here.
1. He will get us on the path to be a threat to make the tournament
2. Rutgers will come up with the $ to pay him
3. He will want to stay and not go to a "better" program
My expectation is if we ultimately make the tournament it doesn't come out of left field. There will be a year where we really look like we turned the corner and at that point Pikiell will be in demand.
A grade not taking into consideration the circumstances is utterly pointlessI'm not comparing Rutgers to Rutgers history. I'm comparing Rutgers to the rest of Div I, which is whom we're competing against for 1 of 68 spots.
Why? We've had the same circumstances since 1991. We haven't danced. I think a C+ is fair. I'm not giving him an A just because we're Rutgers.A grade not taking into consideration the circumstances is utterly pointless
If you don't take circumstances into consideration that means that if I took over Duke and their recruiting plummeted but I still edged out Rutgers that I would get a higher grade than Pike in recruiting. It makes zero senseWhy? We've had the same circumstances since 1991. We haven't danced. I think a C+ is fair. I'm not giving him an A just because we're Rutgers.
should have had 10-30-50-70-90 as options....anyone with 0 or 100 isn't really being truthful

I think Hobbs has been trying to fix that. Hopefully we're in less troubleFootball. Football. That’s where $ goes.
Our athletic department has been constructed where football has to bring in revenue.
We are in deep deep trouble.

You think those teams will come calling if he never gets us to the NCAA tournament? You’re worried about him leaving before he accomplishes that for us? I don’t see it.So if Kentucky, Duke or UNC or the NBA comes calling he stays?
He left Stony Brook. I’d think he’d leave Rutgers.
Cmon Greene... man for someone who I think know the game you post dumb things sometimes. There is literally no chance programs like that come after Pike for getting us to the NIT. Honestly it’s highly unlikely they would come after him for getting us to the NCAAs. Sweet sixteen appearance? Ok. Those programs are going after the best of the best.So if Kentucky, Duke or UNC or the NBA comes calling he stays?
He left Stony Brook. I’d think he’d leave Rutgers.
"We need better players." Exactly. That cannot be disputed.Greene fig, understand your point. What if we beat Purdue last year? Would have been in semis. We can win tourney and get in. Was close to winning 3 games last year. We need better players.
He said in his tenure here. If you don't think he will get us to the dance in his tenure you are basically saying h isn't the coach for us. I voted 100% and I wasn't lying.should have had 10-30-50-70-90 as options....anyone with 0 or 100 isn't really being truthful
Please refer back to Geo’s stats last year. I like Geo a ton. I just fear expectations are a tad high.
"We need better players." Exactly. That cannot be disputed.
If Pikiell got Hyatt and/or Massoud then he would get a solid B. B+ perhaps. I'll stick with my C+. We're still picked to be last place. I just look for improvement. 13th place would make me happy at this point.
Did you see Geo in the Indiana and Purdue tournament games?

Of course I did. We played 30+ games.
