Basketball Rutgers Basketball defeats No. 23 Illinois with return of Dylan Harper

Fairly officiated game with the usual missed calls.. some glaring.. both ways.. and the effort by one official to stop our fast break. I was impressed by the quick travel calls against Illinois and was a bit shocked they "m missed" that late one... and yet.. on replay.. I got it.. it was close.. he got the ball.. took a step and power dribbled.. then took two steps to pass the ball.. that's a no-no.. but it was close. It looked like his right foot was a re-established pivot and his left foot took additional steps.

One of the things the more cautiously optimistic among us said in preseason was that by the end of the year, if everyone gels.. no one will want to see us on their Big Ten tourney or NCAA Tourney brackets.

Make it so.

Fun to see em wearing scarlet at home. Wish we did it more often.

In a game where Rutgers was outtoughed for a lot of the second half, Rutgers was the tougher team in the last 4 minutes to earn the win
It was extra sweet to seal the deal with multiple OREB in a row at the end after getting abused on OREB by illinois
 
Are we pretending we'd make the tournament if both Harper and ace were playing now? I could've sworn they were playing when they were losing to the cupcakes like Kennesaw State and princeton
U R one of the biggest JOs on this board. 4-1 in the BIG with D Harp healthy. Does this YOUNG team with all new players get half the season to Connect. Stop being an idiot already.
