Basketball Rutgers falls at Oregon with porous perimeter defense and struggling stars

[greenknight]

Great D let them get you chasing the ball with ZERO pressure on ball and swish shot at the buzzer

 

[koleszar]

I almost don’t care if we even make the B1G tournament anymore

Might be a blessing in disguise, not to watch this crap any more than we have to.

 

[RocktheRac]

Will walk ons even want to play next year?

 

[seansherm]

So still no PnR with Dylan and Ace. Cool

They've tried it in the past. Ace doesn't get within two feet of actually setting a screen before peeling off or Dylan goes early. They don't run it well.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Is Eddie Jordan available?

 

[BG1973]

We played hard in nearly every game this year, but when you look at Iowa and now this game, we have given up. Pike has lost this team. Bottom 3 finish and missing the Big Ten tourney is heavily in play now.

Agreed. They have officially checked out. Dylan and Ace, that is.

 

[Captain Hogleg]

Fire Pike and hire Bobby Hurley?

 

[RUDeac]

Turns out Hobbs is not a good AD.

 

[fatsam98]

Pike pressing now that the game is already over 🤣

As usual. My man needs to take a real long look at how he does things once this shitshow of a season ends.

 

[RU MAN]

So how does pike react to this? His usual bullshit or maybe he’ll call out players?

They have a 3.2 GPA.

 

[Scangg]

You win the message board!! Lmao

I mean that's literally what Derkack looked like on that fast break 🤣

 

[greenknight]

AB you are DOWN 16 why are you playing 5 FT off the ball WTMF

 

[KK1827]

You really think Steve has the stomach to continue after this year? ESP if we keep spiraling and everyone leaves?

I can give you close to 4,000,000 reasons why each year why he wont leave here voluntarily.

 

[RAC93]

We have speed limit offense (55) with no speed limit defense

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

So how does pike react to this? His usual bullshit or maybe he’ll call out players?

"Tough league. I like our guys. Check out GPA."

 

[RocktheRac]

Can we sit Harper and Bailey at the State of the game on Wednesday?

 

[Shelby65]

Harper just stands around and watches unless he is playing iso ball

Can’t blame him for that. They are all shitty, unwilling passers and he’d be wasting his time moving for a pass.

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

I can give you close to 4,000,000 reasons why each year why he wont leave here voluntarily.

I hear ya. But I also know that someone in RU admin somewhere is starting to ponder how to get rid of him. Take it to the bank.

 

[fatsam98]

It’s on me. We’re close. I’ve got to do a better job.

You know I tell you guys all the time it's hard to win on the road in this conference. Really well coached team. We're close though. We have 5 games left to get things turned around here.

 

[RU MAN]

Harper and Bailey were awful tonight. Couldn’t buy a basket if their lives depended on it.

 

[MCKnight2004]

Harper looks like he’s lost all confidence not even close to the player we saw in Vegas

 

[Hondo77]

You really think Steve has the stomach to continue after this year? ESP if we keep spiraling and everyone leaves?

11 million pays for a lot of Rolaids.

 

[Captain Hogleg]

Teams take on the personality of their head coach. I think we see evidence of that rearing it’s head here.

 

[bethlehemfan]

What did we all do to deserve this? Like wtf. I'm a good person. All I asked for was one season going to second weekend.

So it’s your fault!!

 

[The RUT]

I hear ya. But I also know that someone in RU admin somewhere is starting to ponder how to get rid of him. Take it to the bank.

So they’ve figured out a way to pay a massive buyout, but can’t figure out a way to land a portal 5?

 

[RU Mike73]

Historically bad game. Team is officially an embarrassment.

 

[DHajekRC84]

You really think Steve has the stomach to continue after this year? ESP if we keep spiraling and everyone leaves?

Lol.. of course that stubborn crap coach will. Not just the money but he actually thinks he's good.

 

[jtung230]

Seats will be available next year at the RAC.

 

[RU MAN]

To be down 5 at halftime and lose by 18, tells me the kids don’t give a shit of what Pikiell is selling.

 

[Mr Magoo]

I can give you close to 4,000,000 reasons why each year why he wont leave here voluntarily.

We should sue PIke for taking advantage of our simpleton sex-crazed Former AD.

 

[Plum Street]

long 3 days on the road til Washington

They will party a couple nights and get blown out

 

[RAC93]

You know I tell you guys all the time it's hard to win on the road in this conference. Really well coached team. We're close though. We have 5 games left to get things turned around here.

Toss in the team GPA, and mention that the Big 10 is a great conference, and how we have a great student section and you will have it all covered

 

[tm_nj]

these losses don’t hurt anymore once I accepted how bad we are

 

[tevans8407]

The notion that money is the reason that pike won’t be fired after this season is flat out wrong.

The notion that pike won’t get fired this season because Rutgers university and Rutgers athletics has no leadership and is a mess of a school is correct.

 

[RUJMM78]

75-57 final score,A total embarrassment in the second half.

 

[BG1973]

Team has no more fight. I’d rather have the 2017 and 2018 teams back that at least played hard. Clear they have checked out and after tonight so have I. I’ll still get sucked in and watch because I can’t help myself but I’ll probably watch with little emotion or care for the outcome.

 

[Corycord1]

Eddie Jordan teams were more fun to watch

 

[greenknight]

I'm not watching next game I cannot take a team that has ZERO heart

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

Can’t blame him for that. They are all shitty, unwilling passers and he’d be wasting his time moving for a pass.

He's often caught standing around on D too

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

The announcer closed the game by saying Rutgers needs to figure out how to play defense together lol
