Basketball Rutgers Hoops vs. Michigan (CANCELLED) BigTen Tournament Cancelled

[RUJMM78]

Both tournaments were just cancelled.

Announcement just made on B1G Network.

 

[fluoxetine]

THEY WERE ALREADY ON THE COURT THIS IS SO DUMB

 

[rutgersguy1]

SEC as well. I’m sure ACC and B12 too soon.

 

[RU Mike73]

B1G tourney cancelled minutes ago

 

[MGSA99]

Next up, NCAAs for certain. The drought continues, it only took a global pandemic to make it happen.

 

[TonyLieske]

More evidence that our campus was built on a Lenni Lenape burial grounds.

 

[RUScrew85]

No doubt the NCAA tourney will be cancelled now too.

31 years and they cancel the tourney when we finally make it.

God. Hates. Rutgers.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

So so so dumb. There are few safer places on earth than a 100k+ square foot building with only 100 people.

 

[King of S]

See everybody next year. Unbelievable.

They're already there. In the building. They made our players travel all that way and use the same facilities just to go home without playing

 

[RUfubar]

You can't spell viRUs without

Well deep breathing gassed athletes may be a greater risk to contract WuFlu since it's a respiratory disease, no?

It's seriously the dumbest possible reality.

 

[Saint Puppy]

Why wasn’t this done last night? Baffling it took this long.

31 years and they cancel the tourney when we finally make it.

God. Hates. Rutgers.

Technically only 29, but yay us.

 

[WhiteBus]

Along with SEC and American. I'm guessing the NCAA is next

 

[ImBadRU]

Such a media hype hysteria BS.

 

[AshCatchEm]

Such a media hype hysteria BS.

Then you go to a bar and kindly get corona

 

[IndianaKnight]

Thanks, Fred (and I don’t mean Gruninger)—

 

[RUMED]

Such a media hype hysteria BS.

You believe the media is forcing all the medical experts to make these recommendations? Wow!

 

[BigEastPhil]

I’d still have selection Sunday and see how things shake out in next week and or to possibly postpone or cancel.

 

[MadRU]

Big East is playing right now

 

[JayRU09]

You believe the media is forcing all the medical experts to make these recommendations? Wow!

All these doctors secretly shorting the market.

 

[scarletrat]

I hate it as a long-suffering RU fan--I was in HS in 1991...but this is the right thing to do.

 

[rutgersguy1]

B12 too now. PAC 12 also

 

[King of S]

Instead of a summer league, have the NCAA’s start June 3.

 

[newell138]

For those watching the Big East tourney on ESPN, its from about 30 years ago

Turn on FS1 for the current game

 

[rutgersguy1]

 

[PSUriseANDfire]

Delay the tournament for a month. Allow practices like the NBA.

 

[JQRU91]

They should just have the players play the tourneys on Xbox.

 

[bac2therac]

good atmosphere in nyc actually

 

[rutgersguy1]

All the P5 conferences have cancelled.

 

[DennisHajekRC84]

good atmosphere in nyc actually

agree and surprised. Just need to turn the MIC up on the announcers a bit.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

Commish just made a mistake.. said he has been thinking about this for "a couple months".. I suppose, technically this all started in very late December. But there was no reason for a Big Ten commish to begin thinking about this until 2nd week of February or so.

 

[zebnatto]

Yeah, cant hear a thing, which is fine.

 

[Pancho1939]

Now we get to listen to Kyk for the next f-ing year demand that hobbs fire pikiell because they didn't make it to the NCAA tournament this year.

Thanks coronavirus!

 

[bac2therac]

seems like they really caved to alot of media pressure and took cues from nba

 

[tonyandruth]

sucks!!!

Disagree, his job is to be forward looking, so this should have been on his radar since early Jan. when it broke out in China
