Yes, most likely regarding poor performance next season. "Full" roster defined as every scholarship - nah, but enough to field a team with subs, no problem in this era of the transfer portal. May not be very good basketball players, but there will be players.

From out here in AZ I see a team that isn't cohesive and quite bluntly lacks the necessary talent to compete at B1G level. I know you didn't like CVS much, but her defense first mentality - and success at the defense - meant that Rutgers always had a chance even against "better" competition. In fact, the coach out here in AZ has a similar philosophy, and while the wins haven't come against the better competition this year (we snuck a few in previous years), we have been in games and generally held opponents below their scoring average, a la Vivian. I just don't see that happening at RU, you get decent scoring at times but almost every game appears over before it happens.
