this is the problem. The game is changing and some people do not get it or understand it. They are stuck in he past.
I dunno, I think Chow has written dumber stuff than that.
Your response is similar to others that keeps coming up and the only reply worth mentioning is ante up or get out of the B1G Ten.Rutgers has faced financial constraints since joining the B1G Ten.They don't even have the funds for RAC renovations or the football facility to replace the Hale Center.
Agreeing with you, just adding. The rim protector and guards can’t just be low to mid major quality. That’s going to require talent evaluation that ls been lacking the last few years. The defensive system and accountability has to return to what it was before we sold out to offense only this year. I think the three point shooting starts with Xs and Os. We need to scheme to get shooters open. How can it be that almost every shooter we brought in here with a high HS or college percentage has underachieved. Finally, I wonder, will the GM be from the Pike tree and just be a yes man or will it be someone with a voice who can challenge the thought process that’s been going on back to 2021 recruiting.
There not leaving the big ten and they are not paying up. It will be status quo. Mostly seasons in bottom half of big ten with occasional bright spots. It's just the way it is.
I give kudo's to Schiano for recruiting his type of players,
Wow exaggerate much! This is some emotional shit here. We get it you hate Pile and want him gone. You love Sha and think he is the best. Folks have been to practices and reported they run plenty of things and Pike is on them but continue to ignore that. The hole will be much less than the Eddie Jordan hole that needed to be dug out but keep repeating that you know better. The national embarrassment thing is also over blown as well yes comments will be made and articles will be written but most basketball fans don’t give a F about RU not making the tournament either way and guess what a few weeks after the tourney ends the Block R will be all over the NBA pre draft and draft. Do you think all those people seeing that will go back and look at our record this year or will they just see Rutgers and say wow I didn’t realize they played there?
The days of recruiting diamonds in the rough who stay three years is gone. Pike needs to adapt or we won’t see the ncaas again
Another guy comparing Rutgers to Rutgers.
So in a condensed version of your post, you’re willing to settle for mediocrity in this program.
Given Rutgers ability to hire really bad basketball coaches, I think our best chance to have a good competitive team is with Pikiel. Whether he will be able to put together a good team is going to depend on how well he does in the portal and how well he does at retaining key players. I also really enjoy watching a good defensive team which is a personal preference that makes me appreciate Pikiel. That being said if he can’t get it done, Rutgers will need to go with someone new.
This is so true about comparing Rutgers to Rutgers. Pointless comparisons as we play in one of the best conferences in the country and we have to have higher goals for the expectations of our coaches. Pike got us out of the Eddie Jordan depths, but that’s over. Time to elevate to higher levels or it becomes time to move on to another coach. That time is fast approaching without improved results.
.400 winning percentage in the big ten over nine years and also over the last 3. He’s not doing any better in years 7-8-9 than he did in his whole tenure with the suck early years factored in.
Let me know when Rutgers football is hyped to get into the college football playoffs for 2 off-seasons, the school's marketing department is prepared for them to go to the national championship that year and they have 2 of the top 3 picks in the draft playing QB and WR and instead they finish 4-8 that season and lose to Monmouth at Metlife and Georgia State at Georgia State.
Um. This year? When they were hyped by Kirk Herbstreit as a potential playoff dark horse? I mean I’ve been previously scolded about different football is. I’m just saying be careful what you wish for.
