Rutgers-Indiana Game Thread

[RUJMM78]

A squad full of complementary type players will always have great difficulty winning league games because of the lack of consistent scoring threats.Indiana let Rutgers stay in the game with over 20 turnovers but their superiority with the 3 point shot was the difference in the second half.Grier had a outstanding first half scoring 15 points but only scored 5 points in the second half due to limited shot opportunities.

A entertaining game where Rutgers never gave up but the poor rebounding,missed layups and sloppy ball handling were the main reasons for the loss.

Doorson, Diallo, Freeman, Johnson, and hopefully Levitch

unfortunately the guy who scored the most points the past two games is gone in Grier and then the following year Freeman is gone...who is his replacement. Just not getting it done in recruiting short term or long term

I wish.

Ha, yeah just like him, except for the unlimited range and athleticism.

Freeman could redshirt. Could. If you can hold onto Sanders then the team has three scorers with Nigel in the picture for two seasons.

J.R. Smith clone

I don't know about that. I wish he were that kind of streaky.

Who will be signed during the spring signing period? Your post seems to indicate that you know the names because you state the staff is not getting it done........but, I know you don't, so this comment is meaningless. Will any of these be signed Nostradamus ? Thiam, Thompson, Stevenson, Levitch, Green (Sam or Devonte), Diallo

How about we Table this discussion until after the spring signing period, we will then know the short term and long term rosters, including the specific players. You can post your negative comments about staff recruiting at the end of April.

it is what it is you can keep saying its negative but its reality right now. Sure they will sign someone, but will it be another D'von Campbell, Justin Goode, Ryan Johnson or will it be a Freeman type because that's the level we need

That's my point. The spring signing period is months away yet you still make a statement like, " Just not getting it done recruiting short term or long term".

Most reasonable people would withhold judgment on 2016 recruiting until after the spring signing period. There are a lot of very good players still available and the staff is in the mix for many of them.

A talented SG (Maybe a Juco) has a clear path to starting on Day 1 and the staff can offer that in any recruiting pitch, not a guarantee...but, they'll be able to tell them that two senior SG's are leaving.

They also signed Laurent in the spring, is that right?
