Ita very unlikely we go to the tournament and we aren’t moving on from pike.
Basketball Rutgers falls 80-72 at Penn State plagued with turnover, foul troubles
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
Agree. Winning the remainder of our six home games along with two wins at Michigan, Purdue, or Oregon would get us in at 11-9. That would give us wins over five top 25 teams.
That would be a pretty strong case albeit unlikely
Love him, he makes me laugh...but he needs to start growing up.
Again..he didnt look great before the ankle sprain.
Good for him for playing thru it…
He didn't feel well. The NCAA will understand that and take it into account. Otherwise we would be locks!!!!!
Grant was not able to defend their big guy...was a major issue in the 2nd half
And he had a wide open lane to his left. We only needed a 2 at that point Also down 10 with 4-5 minutes to go we ran down the clock on offense a few times?
i got your sarcasm meter but there are posters actually saying this lol
Oh, I'm well aware. I'm concentrating on the future... can't do anything about the past
The Internet has turned into the twilight zone because of the hidden agendas. When someone is saying something that doesn't make sense; or they purposely only tell half of the story it's because they are pushing an agenda. Lol they don't mention his defense, he was the best defender on the team tonight, his rebounding, his intensity, because that doesn't fit their narrative of him not caring about winning snd being a "me" player.
Yes and that’s going to be difficult
i would have given that up to have another scorer
Dude has been on fire 🔥
VERY MEDIOCRE, and that’s being generous. I don’t think they are very good, neither are we of course since we lost to them, but PSU is not good just because they beat us. No inside presence for PSU, they rebound as bad as we do or worse, in fact we crushed them on the boards 34-22. They are a middle of the pack big ten team, we are around the same level.

if he was here for 2 years we would be building statues but its now or never in a condensed career here. He certainly love hoops and you can see it.
Seriously? They are going to factor in his illness just like we heard they would factor in the OSU out of bounds win that was stolen from us and Magg’s injury would be factored in? You betcha……zero point zero chance that happens……zero point zero is also now our NCAA chances, this was one of the most winnable games remaining, especially out of the road games. Without being able to get this one against an average big 10 team, it’s impossible to see how we get 9 wins based on the remaining schedule. Can’t beat PSU, then we definitely can’t beat Michigan, Oregon, Illinois, Purdue, highly unlikely we beat Maryland, that’s 5 losses right there, tack on one or two more and at best we go 6-6 for a 16-15 finish. 2 lottery picks but the same results as when we had Andre Hyatt and Simpson
yes there were posters that thought the committee was going to not count 2 games where Dylan played (one of which he played significantly) or assume they won them even they lost both at home by double digits while overlooking a loss at Kennesaw State
but you are right...psu isnt a ncaa team most likely, not beating them but somehow some think there is a tear of road wins and top 15 upsets coming..thats said would you be totally surprised with a win over Michigan State at MSG that gives everyone false hope again
Only at Rutgers where we expect more from players because of a poorly constructed roster and inefficient coaching/schemes.
Smh
100% but the catch 22 is, there no way you turn this down because of the exposure.
I agree with you about roster construction and inefficient coaching, but if by more you mean I expect Ace to act more mature. Yes. There are frosh that act like they’ve “been there before”. Ace has so much talent it wouldn’t hurt his career to learn poise. Do I think he’s the reason we lost, no! We’re not in it without him. However I’m entitled to just like winning more than Sports Center highlights.
