Basketball Rutgers Basketball defeats Boston University, 69-45

[sport2231]

When we were down and Pike refused to play Griffiths I was shocked. Could have maybe pulled out that game if he freed Gavin

His scoring is absolutely crucial

As much as I love Pike don’t be surprised about how hard it is for a old defensive coach to learn new tricks

But I think there has to be a reason GG got so much run in the first half when it was close.

we don’t have lock down defenders as compared to last year, especially with Mag out

Let GG Eat

If cliff is hurt he should rest..not giving 100%

Wife just proclaimed she is buying goggles.

Can’t spell Goggles without GG!

 

[Knight Owl]

BU hasn’t been good since Howard Stern played for them.🤷‍♂️

Was near the court Monday. Gavin looked like a deer in headlights. Eyes wide. Looks like he’s settled into college ball now.

 

[JDNB]

Stats show DS with 5 assists leads team 1TO

 

[RUinOhio]

get Cliff out of there

 

[LiKnight]

I wonder who is going to get the Player of the Game award

It's nice watching a 5 star player go off.

(This won't be the last time it happens)

 

[Scangg]

Cliff has 2 FG attempts. Noah has 1

 

[Rufaninga]

It’s only a couple games but it certainly seems like Gavin’s offensive potential will far outpace any lackluster D

Always thought its easier to take a scorer & turn him into a defender vs take a defender and try and turn him into a scorer

 

[Roy_Faulker]

Going to be interesting to see how the dust settles on tue rotation when we get to BIG play. Lots of new pieces.

My hope is the preseason rotations really help keep fresh legs towards the end of the season.

 

[Scangg]

This is the type of situation to get Chol some run and much needed game experience for development

 

[bac2therac]

Getting sloppy now

 

[Scangg]

Griffiths straight line speed is legit

 

[bac2therac]

And the Rac is emptying

 

[BillyC80]

Gavin just makes shots, from anywhere and everywhere.

 

[Scangg]

Griffiths is the most natural scorer we have seen here in forever

25 points... on 9 shots

And the Rac is emptying

Going nowhere

 

[ScarletLongIsland]

Again criminal that GG was stapled to bench vs Princeton

 

[bac2therac]

16-30 ft yikes

 

[Degaz-RU]

Pike going with two guard rotations of Noah/Austin and Simpson/JMike.

as someone else pointed out, he was like a deer in the headlights on Monday night. He's settled in now, to say the least

Tigers are a different animal than a Terrier

 

[Mr Magoo]

He’s got some work to do but it’s nice to see Griffiths truly is the best player on this team..as he should be.

 

[Knight Shift]

Offense is a train wreck

Premature bac2uation again?

 

[fluoxetine]

Aiden Terry got hacked.

 

[Knight Shift]

BU hasn’t been good since Howard Stern played for them.🤷‍♂️

Howard got crushed by little Nails Lofgren

 

[RAC93]

Wolf needs to step aside from the starting lineup and Gavin gets reinserted as a starter. He has too much shooting and scoring ability to be sitting over on the bench.

 

[ScarletLongIsland]

I watched Princeton. In his limited minutes, he was no worse than anyone else. This “deer in headlights” is nonsense. It was just a bad decision by Pike.

 

[bac2therac]

Premature bac2uation again?

Odd flex...There are still major problems..rutgers scoring came from 2 guys

Always with the Debbie Downer outlook.

Woolf should start.

Insert Gavin over someone else. Only need 2 guards as that is our weakest position it seems

I want to see more zone defense to eliminate weaknesses

 

[bac2therac]

Always with the Debbie Downer outlook.

Tons of issues right now...sit down and listen

 

[RUinOhio]

9 makes.

You can get help if you have issues.

who told him he was this great 3 pt. shooter? Still haven't seen any evidence of it. he needs to stop.

 

[RUChoppin]

Not sure how well he shoots in practice - some guys just need to keep shooting. Ron Harper Jr started his collegiate career 5/36 from the arc (.139). He was .354 over the rest of his college career after that brutal opening stretch.

 

[ScarletLongIsland]

He’s barely played in any college games. He needs to see the court and get comfortable. Sheesh

Bu is not a good basketball team. Everything has to be viewed in that context.
