Rutgers vs Indiana / Game Thread
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Bac the refs are garbage. It makes no difference in the outcome but don't get it twisted.
If he can't get better players then he will have failed at his primary responsibility as HC, and he'll be fired and we'll start over yet again.
Bad recruiter = bad coach
Pikiell knows this more than anybody
Why are you assuming both teams are committing the same number of fouls today, called or uncalled?
I never said anything about the refs . Are you watching the game? How many points has Indiana scored running their true offense?
RU 16-35 fg
Indy 23-48
RU is actually shooting near Indy's percentage but they have taken 13 more shots

Refs always seem to favor the team with more skill and more quickness.
When that team is us we will get the calls too.
Get the friggen back hoes digging in the ground for the new facility now! Need every advantage we can get!
Indiana is only 2-14 on 3s,, thats pretty stunning
I think the thing we should all be pissed about is the horrific foul shooting...nothing to do with talent..and we have been particularly awful of late...its really unacceptable

Thiam needs some minutes. He needs experience and hopefully some confidence. So what if his D stinks right now
Turnovers and foul shooting same script every game. Correct these two areas and we're in these games till the end.
100% disagree. We don't shoot FTs well because we don't have players who are particularly good at shooting FTs
a positive to latch onto is that Rutgers is still fighting and battling and not curling up into the fetal position. This is a great attribute that Pikiell has instilled in these players. Kudos to the players who have continue to fight even though things are not going well in this game. This is something we as fans can rally around
1 of our last 8 from the line. We would be in this game if we shot just 65%
The free show issue has become Knoblauch-esque...
All in the head.
All in the head.
how long have you been watching Rutgers basketball...I dont think we had a good free throw shooting team since the Billet/Hodgson years

BAC - I used to think you knew basketball but you are coming off as clueless in this thread.
Post above is evidence item #1
(They are winning because they are better, not because of our mistakes.
What the hell does that even mean?
Have you seen all of our unforced turnovers leading to easy run outs, compounded by unnecessarily challenging layups?)
And your constant defense of referees is #2.
Are you a member of a referee union somewhere?
yes this is a worry for me because I thought that if RU was to win 4-6 league games, he had to contribute, right now we are getting nothing from him but he has really regressed to the point where he isnt playing.
Was just thinking the same thing. And Nigel is now passing up wide open looks that we need our starting guard to take. But when we get to the line it is totally in our head that they are harder to make than they are. Mike Williams is the one guy who can turn this mindset around for us.
Did we break ground on our free throw shooting facility yet?
Agreed. But that doesn't make the calls right.
They suck. We suck. They are independent of each other.
Anyone else think the color commentator sounds like Rick Sutcliffe?
because I am not going to blame officiating as to why we are losing a particular game especially a game where Indiana has been called for more fouls...my issue is every game RU fans bitch about the refs, yes there will be games that are not called evenly but when every game isnt called evenly I think people are projecting their fandom into it..,.and yes better teams get the calls, they are often quicker as well which causes the inferior team to foul
