Rutgers-Minnesota Game Thread

I agree with the post that said he was really pissed at Saunders. I second that and could care less if he leaves RU tomorrow. In fact I hope he does and not soon enough for me. To put the team in this position was horrible action on his part.
Do you know what it was that he did?
 
I am not upset that we lost. I am incredibly upset how stupid we play and just how bad our coaching staff is.

The 1st 10 minutes we run our offense and get good looks and then we play like we are Loyola Marymount. Minnesota is making multiple runs and we decide to push tempo and take quick shots. How many times are we going to wrecklessly penetrate? How many bad shots can Mike Williams take?

Bishop Daniels defense is so bad you would swear he bet the over. There is no effort, NONE.

Eddie Jordan not giving Laurent any rest on Saturday killed Laurent today. He wasn't moving at all and had ZERO energy.

Joey King is a huge threat outside 3 point line. We all knew that. How can he get so many open looks?

Tonight was not a talent issue, it was a stupidity issue.

We never defend the 3 point line, hence they shoot 35-40%. This will never change with this coach
 
What do the knowledgeable folks have to say now
Our two best players are suspended for poor decisions. One of them is indefinitely suspended. The other was suspended for four games when we had 8 scholarship players. You don't have to have much knowledge to know what great shape we are in.

Do you know what it was that he did?


it doesn't matter...what matters is that he did something serious enough to get a 4 game suspension, most likely not a first offense...so Sanders put his own selfishness ahead of the program. Its not Eddie people should be mad at the past 3 games. Sanders potentially cost 3 wins

ummmm Eddie brought him here. Made him the focal point of our team. Based on what Russ Wood said...with a tremendous amount of risk.

Sounds like a house of cards to me. Sanders, Freeman, Whittingham ???, Etou.

RU has had difficulty getting the better recruits to commit , so gambles are made to get some
that have some questions about them to come to RU while other programs are not that willing to gamble on them.
It's Sanders and Freeman's first year, lets now write them off as losses just year at RU.
Both might become better because of the discipline imposed on them.
When winning programs discipline and/or suspend players, I doubt their fans act like the sky is falling because those recruits she the traits of John Dillinger and Baby Face Nelson.

How many top recruits has RU MBB seen commit and how many of them panned out.
When you have a program like RU has been for many -many and many more years, getting the better HS players is mighty hard and sometimes you might have to take a gamble on the ones you can get,
 
sorry it was bad basketball...do you know that some of these guys are being counted on for next year...not showing anything. The only reason they were in the game is because Minnesota sleptwalked, they woke up and game over. There is a reason there are only 6 players that's goes beyond injuries if you want to dig deeper.

- didn't say it was "good" basketball...

- don't need to dig deeper, I know there are "other" issues, AND...

...ONCE AGAIN, BAC, I'm NOT defending Eddie. For the 50th time this month: I do NOT, at this time, think he is or can get the job done here. All I'm saying is that I'm not gonna harp on things, during or immediately after a game, when we've got 6 scholarship guys on the court. Just not worth it IMHO.

Now, as I've been saying for nearly 2 weeks: BET THE HOUSE against us in Game #4 with Corey.
