Rutgers-Indiana Game Thread

[NewJerseyHawk]

IU will let RU back into this game, if we execute and get a couple of rebounds between now and the 8 minute mark.

 

[Ibuildfurnaces]

I'm a poor pathetic loser living in his mommy's basement. Please have pity on me.

 

[RutgersJoe]

57-50 Indiana, 9 min left

 

[SBP]

Foreman is either lazy, tired, out of shape, selfish, or all of the above..Not liking his body language or game at all!

 

[RU MAN]

It's bad enough Williams can't shoot outside. Now he can't finish on a simple layup.

 

[soundcrib]

Grier for Williams please

 

[PatrickRU92]

Williams!!!! Grrr......

 

[Rokodesh]

Cmon Mike!

 

[RutgersJoe]

Rough day for Williams

 

[PatrickRU92]

The offensive rebounds are killing us. It's so frustrating watching them get chance after chance.

think we're stuck there. We just don't have the size underneath with the injuries

 

[RutgersJoe]

Another wide open look

 

[PatrickRU92]

textbook drive and kick for the IU 3--the key to winning in college bball. I yearn for the day we can do that.

 

[cRURah]

Damn - Indiana can shoot the 3's.

 

[cRURah]

Daniels being Daniels again.

 

[RU MAN]

Most competent teams can hit open 3's.

 

[RU MAN]

Grier has been a pleasant surprise.

 

[itsRtime]

Is DJ Foreman not in shape?

He looks perpetually winded.

 

[PatrickRU92]

Most competent teams can hit open 3's.

Only if you have guys that can make the shot.

 

[RU MAN]

Only if you have guys that can make the shot.

That's my point. That's why someone like Williams has turned out to be a dud of a recruit. His second year and recruited for his outside shooting ability and he has proven he can't do it especially when under pressure. Look at IU now. They have three different guys that can knock down three's.

 

[RutgersJoe]

Bad bad pass

 

[RU MAN]

Geez. The first thing you're taught in organized BB is to NEVER try a crosscourt pass. Unbelievable how bad our fundamentals are.

 

[RU MAN]

In a game like this, you can see how badly we miss Freeman. He would make all the difference in this game.

 

[cRURah]

We miss way too many lay-ups, tips and even dunks.

 

[RU MAN]

When the IU guard drove down, THAT was good help defense by Lewis.

 

[RUAEPI]

Ok. There still is fight on this team. Nice penetrate and dish by Daniels.

 

[RU MAN]

The last four trips down we have been back to playing good sound fundamental BB and look what's happened. We're getting back into this game.

 

[PatrickRU92]

well win or lose it would be hard to blame the coaching. We are playing hard and we are just so undermanned. That being said, let's make a run now and shock these bastards.

 

[cRURah]

That must have been the 3 rd or 4th shot that just hung on the rim and didnt drop.

 

[RU MAN]

well win or lose it would be hard to blame the coaching. We are playing hard and we are just so undermanned. That being said, let's make a run now and shock these bastards.

Agreed. For the most part EJ had done a pretty good job so far.

 

[Rokodesh]

team is playing hard, great effort.

 

[RutgersJoe]

Finally hitting our free throws today

 

[RutgersJoe]

Wow huge break

 

[PatrickRU92]

dammmit dumb shot by Danies

 

[RU MAN]

Man, Daniels is an enigma. He can go from really sound BB to WTF is that?

 

[PatrickRU92]

oh what a BS foul on Lewis what kind of call is that

 

[cRURah]

Daniels always looks great with the ball until he shoots.

 

[RU848789]

Nice comebacks this game, multiple times - just not enough depth and talent to beat IU, assuming we don't have a miracle at the end.

 

[RutgersJoe]

Daniels wtf!

 

[soundcrib]

Daniels taketh us out as much as he tooketh us in.

 

[RU MAN]

EJ needs to talk to Daniels. Every time he gets away from passing first, he dribble drives know matter what and he usually hurts his team.
