Patrick, I saw the 1-3-1 zone that they ran. I knew we were in trouble. We can't pass the ball. And then Daniels throws his weak passes that get picked off. Sanders threw a pass right through the big guy. We need more talent. But to be honest teams like OSU and Wisconsin are struggling. Wisconsin lost at home to Milwaukee? Need Freeman back soon. Maybe Eddie should use a 1-3-1 zone. Our players would probably be in the wrong places.
As I said on the RT, Hobbs is a BB guy first and foremost and thus EJ's tenure is very shaky at best.
However unless EJ does what Cuddyer did with the Mets and bows out gracefully - I see EJ here until the end of the 2016/17 season - with 1 year left on his contract.
EJ's stature at RU and the unwillingness and inability to raise funds for another HC buyout will cause another year for EJ and Staff - to be coaching BB.
Unlike football, there isn't much cost to keeping him next year. The team is already at bottom and fan support is virtually nil. I think after year 4 and another 25 loss season we'll see action. Hopefully by then, shovels will be in the ground for the practice facility.
So we're now the 76ers?Unlike football, there isn't much cost to keeping him next year. The team is already at bottom and fan support is virtually nil. I think after year 4 and another 25 loss season we'll see action. Hopefully by then, shovels will be in the ground for the practice facility.
There is little to no chance he gets let go after this year.
And I posted several months ago when everyone on this board rightly predicted another long season that when the losing starts to commence people will forget what they actually predicted and start to criticize anyway.
It is just a fact that watching the losing is much harder than predicting it, it is human nature.
But the fact is RU isn't very good and has no difference makers. Coach Jordan has to land a few.

thanks - we don't really care what you thinkSome of you guys are crazy if you think some of these names you are kicking about would leave for RU.
And I think you guys are realizing that simply going to the Big 10 does not automatically elevate you above other schools. Many of you were laughing at SJU and SHU because they helped form the new Big East as if they are nothing programs because they don't play in one of the Power 5 football conferences.
Well you are finding out it doesn't work that way.
Its worked out about as well as you would think considering the money we were willing to pay on coaches.Changing coaches sounds like the sensible thing to do but how has that worked in the past 25 years?Without improved facilities whoever is the coach has nothing to sell .The players don't make shots and the fundamentals are better performed at the high school level.As long as there is no sense of urgency on the part of the athletic department the mens basketball program will continue to have no relevance and the dwindling fan base might start seeing games at the College Avenue gym.

Forgive me if this was mentioned elsewhere, but why would King Rices name not be mentioned as a Rutgers head coach candidate?We have so very much to do and Shopare so very much behind .
Villanova had 24 assists on 28 baskets the other night.7 Assist in a basketball game?This team c learly has no intention of playing for each other. Laurent led assist with two?
Recruiting the wrong people, I think.
You are right. However, take King Rice's polo and replace "Monmouth" with "Rutgers", and all hell will break loose.they aren't having a field day now with it
CondoleezaYou are right. However, take King Rice's polo and replace "Monmouth" with "Rutgers", and all hell will break loose.
Also, we'd have the Rice trifecta. Ray, Mike and King. We'd get laughed at for that alone.
The main piece has to stay. And are we making a change?RU has a decent roster and will be fine folks....once the change is made, things will turn quickly.....not giving up on this roster, it has a lot of pieces.....

thanks - we don't really care what you think
Of course you don't care....the negative crowd ( "we") only care about being negative and ignore reality.
After any catastrophic event, you hit bottom then you recover and build. Slowly, over time, like 4-6 years.....a time frame that is consistent with how long Danny Hurley knew it would take. ,Hence, his demand for a 7 year deal.
Only "basketball experts" on the Rutgers basketball board expect recruiting to soar after a scandal. It defies common sense and grown men should have more common sense.
No one ever answered why Hurley requested 7 years...want to take a shot at offering an opinion?
Yet Eddie took the 5 because what else did he have to do? 6.25 million reasons to take the job. But why take 5 years when you tell media it's long term rebuild? It doesn't make sense when you win 7-8 games in third year of 5 year contract. Is the goal to win 14 in year 5 and get a 5 year extension?
What's the plan?pray for four big ten players in the spring? He's a lame duck next year anyway.
You think Eddie has us on the right track but Hobbs probably has a different opinion on that. Has he publicly endorsed Jordan?
Anyone with half a brain knew Jordan was a stop gap measure after that Idiot Mike Rice.

You're the only one defending Jordan so maybe Hannibal Lector visited your house recently
yep and that's why its time to mutually agree to move on, just like I said at the end of last year...3 years of rehab and time to get a real guy in here...seems like you are starting to agree with me
Not defending....using common sense about how toxic the program was and understanding it would get worse before getting better......See Indiana example.
....SO, I'll ask you as well, Why do you think Danny Hurley wanted 7 years to build? Everyone avoids offering up an opinion. Care to ne the first?
