Basketball Rutgers Basketball's struggles continued as they lose to Iowa on the road

[Mholinko]

WHY DO WE STILL PLAY OSKAR!

 

[RUFan20231]

This is brutal. These guys can't shoot.

 

[rucoe89]

does this team practice putting the ball through the hoop at all? I have seen 6 year olds shoot better

 

[rtabachk]

Can't hit layups. That's pretty bad.

 

[FIJI'83]

Good night folks. Game is over. Pike has done a horrible job with this years roster.

Harsh words … but sadly true

 

[Scangg]

WHY DO WE STILL PLAY OSKAR!

Maybe because we are 1-15

 

[robjknight]

Can anyone make a layup?

 

[BOCA93]

My god this team is offensively challenged.

 

[cm_13]

Well that’s the fastest I’ve ever turned a Rutgers basketball game off.

 

[rtabachk]

My 3 year old can shoot better than this clown show. 😤

 

[bac2therac]

8 minutes 1 fg

1-12

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

wow we look really bad. what’s going on in practice?

Look at the roster. The starting lineup looks like a Final 4 team in practice.

 

[ColonelRutgers]

5 points in 8 minutes

 

[RU Mike73]

1 for 15 FG

 

[GillesDeleuze]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen any team have an offensive performance this awful

 

[FIJI'83]

We would struggle playing in the CAA.

 

[Scangg]

Don't worry Rutgers waits to be down about 17 before we start playing so we are due for a run

 

[gmay8]

I’ve never seen such inept awful offensive basketball. But I say that every single friggen game. It’s horrific. Unwatchable crap.

 

[Joey Bags]

gavin looks completely lost, i now have no idea how he was ranked as high as he was

People say he’ll improve, but improve to what? 6-8ppg?

 

[runner3283]

I don’t think I’ve ever seen any team have an offensive performance this awful

Since 1st half on Wednesday

 

[Captain Hogleg]

Hey Pike - in your postgame please address the elephant in the room that your team cannot shoot if their lives depended on it and it’s a point of focus moving forward to correct the problem.

 

[cRURah]

is this the worst shooting team in college basketball?

 

[Scangg]

8 minutes 1 fg

1-12

1-15!! You're giving them too much credit

 

[bac2therac]

Actually its 1-15 fg for 6.7%

Iowa is only shooting 31% by the way

 

[RUTrack94]

Some good news. Iowa shooting poorly and RU up 13-12 on the boards.

 

[PiscatawayMike]

It really is astonishing how bad we shoot

 

[NewJerseyHawk]

Fans complaining about how many shots Simpson or Fernandes forced up early vs Ohio State and wanted to see the guards getting others involved, have seen 8 minutes of basketball, when you do that.....

 

[scarletpumpernickl]

How did we beat Stonehill?

 

[Corycord1]

About 8 bunnies we’ve missed at the rim. I’m over being mad, just laughing it off. Every player on this roster can go next year minus Gavin and Jmike. Pikes obsession with Noah is weird too. He does nothing well

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

1-15!! You're giving them too much credit

I wouldn't mind RU only scoring 10 pts in the half to prove a point.

 

[Scangg]

If we can't make layups what does Pike tell them though? Hey guys you're all D1 athletes. Make layups please

 

[Sweet Peas Corner]

How did we beat Stonehill?

A gift 3 at the end

 

[FIJI'83]

Don't worry Rutgers waits to be down about 17 before we start playing so we are due for a run

What does say about Pikell’s coaching especially the starting 5 who he rolls out to start the game. And of course substitutions cannot be made until the 4 minute TV time out.

 

[RUJMM78]

The performance is embarrassing because the team is sleep walking against a opponent fully capable of scoring 80 points a game.

 

[bac2therac]

The complete roster is terrible across the board

You said this team is better than last year...lmfao

 

[FinalFourOrBust]

Every summer pike says it’s his best shooting team ever and every year people believe him

 

[NickRU714]

So is this "leaning into the defensive side of the ball" that everyone keeps clamoring for?

Now we get both no offense and no defense.

We are in trouble next year

 

[bac2therac]

The sad thing is the defecit is only 12

Iowa is playing poorly too

 

[RU Mike73]

This would be funny if it weren’t so sad.
