Basketball Rutgers falls to No. 20 Purdue with porous defensive performance

[Mr Magoo]

Bailey is not that good, takes terrible shots.

Tons of potential but his stock is not going up right now. Not sure if he’s got the head though.

 

[Scangg]

Ogbole another nice random take

At least Ogbole has an excuse since he didn't start playing bball until late

Some of these guys look clueless and have played their entire life

 

[Ridge 22]

What must Dortch be thinking if he can't crack THIS lineup???

That he needs to drop down a level or two

 

[rucoe89]

Side note ---- Matt Painter is the best coach in the conference and I don't think its all that close... respect to Izzo but Painter gets everything out of this team regardless of who comes in out NIL portal etc etc

I hope we hire an AD that can get us the next Matt Painter for men's hoop and Dawn Staley for women's hoop.

 

[RUsojo]

Dercack getting toyed with. Probably a bad idea to get a “defensive stopped” from the worst D1 league in the country.

 

[NickRU714]

Pretty sure Braden Smith has played the entire game.

 

[Rutgers25]

I’m not sure if there is a coaching staff in this conference worse than ours. Dreadful

 

[RUsojo]

Lmao dercack at the rim again

 

[Rutgers25]

Pretty sure Braden Smith has played the entire game.

Amazing he doesn’t get tired while Bailey and Harper (even before flu) are constantly exhausted

 

[rucoe89]

Bailey is not that good, takes terrible shots.

He just needs better coaching.

 

[ScarletLongIsland]

Pike is an embarrassment. This team is atrocious in every aspect

 

[tm_nj]

this was never really a game. it was over after the tip

 

[RU MAN]

Dercack with another head scratching drive into the paint only to be denied.

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Derkak drives into the trees again. Bigs on the other teams just get ready to stuff him when they see him coming.

 

[Scangg]

Derkack looks ridiculous tonight. This pump fake cracks me up

 

[RULegion]

This team has no clue how to play basketball…great at 1 v 1 im sure… too bad its a team game

 

[rucoe89]

Tons of potential but his stock is not going up right now. Not sure if he’s got the head though.

He'll be fine in the NBA with better coaches and focus on basketball only.

 

[RUDivision]

He went to a High school game yesterday, to a women's game the other day and flew to Indiana with the team. Should have been resting up instead.

He’s doesn’t have the flu! That story has expired

 

[fatsam98]

Never left a game with over 4 mins left. Disgusting all round

 

[RUby RED]

Dercack getting toyed with. Probably a bad idea to get a “defensive stopped” from the worst D1 league in the country.

on a team that exclusively played zone, no less

 

[rucoe89]

Other than Bailey and Harper (possibly Acuff) they all suck 1 on 1.

 

[robjknight]

Derkack's favorite play is to be open in the corner, get the ball, fake a shot and then drive to the rim to get stuffed.

 

[Scangg]

We really have no team identity. No team stength. We don’t play like a team either

 

[NickRU714]

Why do we never run this same pick and roll with Dylan and Ace?

Was Ace set a single screen for Dylan all season?
It doesn’t always have to be Ogbole or Lathan

 

[Rokodesh]

He'll be fine in the NBA with better coaches and focus on basketball only.

And surrounded by other talent. He won't be playing with D3 talent on the Nets (or wherever he goes)

 

[RU Mike73]

Sadly the life of RU alum and fan. I know I won’t be in purgatory because this is hell on earth.

 

[Saint Puppy]

We look even worse in garbage time - LOL

 

[Mr Magoo]

He'll be fine in the NBA with better coaches and focus on basketball only.

Agree about the coaching but do you think he’s focusing on something other than basketball now?

 

[Scangg]

Derkack a one hand bullet pass to no one 🤣

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

fumblin bumblin and stumblin

 

[Salvi's Headband]

Never in my worst nightmares did I imagine this

 

[seansherm]

Ogbole again!!!!! No where to be found underneath. He is probably the worst player in all of d1 basketball and that’s not an over exaggeration. Pike also has Dylan on the bench with the season on the like and 4 minutes left? Just give up I guess. Season is a joke the coaching staff is a joke and most all the players are a joke.

Except he was on someone else and Ace left the guy under hoop alone, but sure, blame the wrong guy.

 

[bac2therac]

I would be surprised if Jmike is still here next year after Ace leaves. I wouldn’t even be playing him this year if I had my druthers.

Good

 

[Rokodesh]

Pike needs to resign after this game. I don't want to hear anything else from him.

 

[Scangg]

Defense holds them to under 70 and the offense is a complete no show unfortunately

Purdue played a beatable game tonight

 

[bac2therac]

This program needs an enema

 

[RU MAN]

Derkack looks ridiculous tonight. This pump fake cracks me up

And you had the audacity to defend him when I made a negative comment about him in the game against Wisconsin?

 

[Scangg]

Why do we never run this same pick and roll with Dylan and Ace?

Was Ace set a single screen for Dylan all season?
It doesn’t always have to be Ogbole or Lathan

Its insanity although Ace sets the worst screens ever

 

[RUby RED]

Never in my worst nightmares did I imagine this

Worst case to me entering the season was to be a bubble team — just miss the tourney.

But no, somehow we’ve got the worst team of the entire pikiell era (and id argue maybe the least likable, even more so than last year)

 

[RULegion]

My favorite play of the game guy from Perdue laying on his back gets a rebound over two of our players…such a joke
