Basketball Rutgers Hoops loses to No. 2 Purdue, 68-60

[fluoxetine]

I am joining the dark side.. I don’t want to see Oskar Palmquist on the court ever again.

 

[jordkap]

Shooting sub 30% against Purdue isn’t exactly a recipe for success

 

[MCKnight2004]

Simpson with another drive and miss. Worst I’ve ever seen at the rim

 

[tm_nj]

Get it to 4 at half.

this didn’t age well. 😞

 

[richthedentist]

It’s the Pike old adage why don’t we run an offense

 

[BillyC80]

Hyatt several good looks from three…nada

 

[RutgersChow]

Its 3-0 fouls because we are taking ridiculous shots without trying to work for it

What do you expect from a team that spent the entire off season trying to get off a shot in 13 seconds? Really smart approach for a team that can't shoot.

 

[Scarlet4ever]

If you can’t hit a layup what offense can help you?

 

[RU Mike73]

Simpson is horrible

 

[koleszar]

I really wish someone would ask Pike, "Coach what do you say about your team's inability to convert one of the most basic plays in basketball, a layup?"

 

[fatsam98]

It feels like we should be down way more than we are

 

[MCKnight2004]

Would think Fernandes would’ve gotten more time, u need someone to make a shot

 

[biazza38]

They really called that a foul on Williams? What a joke

 

[Shell21]

man, griffin has no lateral quickness at all. blow by after blow by. needs to go to speed school in the offseason

 

[tm_nj]

Gavin got smoked on defense

 

[Plum Street]

The earlier attempted lob by Cliff to Palmquist amongst edey and co. was not a thing of beauty

 

[runner3283]

Simpson is horrible

X10000000

 

[koleszar]

Announcer just let out a, "WOW" after the latest miss. Almost sounded like he wanted to continue that "Wow" with a, "do they suck."

 

[RUeric]

Clank Clank Clank. Getting tired of hearing that.

 

[RAC93]

Mag has disappeared

 

[gigantor1024]

This season can’t end soon enough

 

[Shell21]

mag isn’t even close

 

[rpiseman]

The earlier attempted lob by Cliff to Palmquist amongst edey and co. was not a thing of beauty

The lob from Cliff to Oscar was our worst offensive set of the season.

 

[richthedentist]

We are just impossible to watch how many times is 1 guy going to dribble and 4 guy stand around watching and doing nothing on offense

 

[bac2therac]

Defense solid

Offense miserable

 

[RUDeac]

Eddie runs better offense than Steve

 

[Plum Street]

Eddie Jordan watching on!

 

[rpiseman]

Pike in a tie today, I guess he was expecting a funeral.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Well that was way worse than the score indicates

 

[richthedentist]

Iowa ladies can shoot better than us

That’s not even a comparison

 

[fatsam98]

My kingdom for a 3

 

[koleszar]

Eddie Jordan watching on!

Probably saying to himself, now this looks familiar.

 

[bac2therac]

2 fg in last 7 minutes

 

[fluoxetine]

Does Pike run the best offensive scheme in college basketball? No. Is it below average? I dunno, maybe. But man is that not the main problem here, these players are just a fatal combination of offensively untalented and cold.

 

[richthedentist]

I really wish someone would ask Pike, "Coach what do you say about your team's inability to convert one of the most basic plays in basketball, a layup?"

Or what do you do in practice you obviously don’t practice offense or shooting?

 

[tm_nj]

YMCA basketball at its finest

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

26.5% fg , 0 for 8 from 3

 

[RutgersChow]

Mag and Hyatt forcing shots because the staff is incapable of running stuff to get them good shots. This is nothing new. GG's defense isn't good, but for God's sake you can't have him covering the PG.

 

[BOCA93]

Just a brutal offensive team. 20 pts, 0/8 from 3

 

[robjknight]

A waste of some good defense. Sad, sad that your 1st 9 players can’t shoot. Just average shooting and we would be up 7 at the half. There must be a vaccine that can cure this horrible shooting ? Most teams have a guy go cold for a game, we have a whole team.
