Rutgers-Minnesota Game Thread

[RU Mike73]

This is a a poor representation oh B1G basketball. B1G network hoping for power outage.

 

[ruman]

At what point can we declare this a blowout?

Now

 

[80RU]

How on earth did Justin not get that last rebound?

 

[RUonBrain]

Man, Laurent is terrible at the line.
Just TERRIBLE

 

[RU Mike73]

7 points in 10 minutes.

 

[bac2therac]

8-17 free throws

 

[RUonBrain]

Nice drive by Foreman and food dish by Daniels

By the way 8-17 at foul line
GARBAGE

 

[Sweet Pea's Corner]

When we get everyone back next we will have 8 b1g wins even though we only score 1/in 10 min

 

[RU Mike73]

Layup drills 5:00 a.m. Be there.

 

[RUonBrain]

I feel like I am watching a scrimmage
(And a not very good one)

 

[bac2therac]

Laurent cannot hit anything other than a layup

 

[RU Mike73]

Seriously????

 

[RC85]

Nice to see the refs can start calling fouls on Minny underneath now.

 

[RUonBrain]

We really do make some good cuts to the basket and bounce passes that lead to layup opportunities.
Probably the best part of our O

 

[Sweet Pea's Corner]

What do the knowledgeable folks have to say now

 

[koleszar]

When can we pickup our participation trophies from the B1G. Because this is really bad, Minn. is really bad as well. Can't believe we're noncompetitive with one of the worst B1G teams out there.

 

[G- RUnit]

Daniels nice second half. Oh well.

 

[Sweet Pea's Corner]

Can't anyone see improvement?

 

[80RU]

Man, Laurent is terrible at the line.
Just TERRIBLE

He was about 70% coming into this game – – hardly horrible.

I can agree with this...we just don't the players to run it...and that not changing. RU couldn't execute these plays against a bad Minnesota so that doesn't bode well for next year against better schools. Foreman, Laurent, Williams all getting stuffed, they just don't have the talent we need

 

[RutgersJoe]

Goode thinks it's hot potato

 

[G- RUnit]

Another great pass by Daniels through Laurents hands. Should have five more assists easily.

 

[bac2therac]

listen if not for Daniels it would have been a total **** show tonight........you know who is to blame for this loss.....COREY SANDERS...selfish...selfish when the program needed him most and when Eddie needed him most to possibly pick up wins in a stretch of winnable games

 

[AreYouNUTS]

Can't give EJ a hard time tonight, sorry:

- on the close to the end of a brutal season
- 6 scholarship players tonight
- came out tough, however, that adrenaline only lasts so long

...gotta give it a rest for this one, IMHO, guys. Still think EJ is NOT the answer, don't get me wrong, but I can't ***** tonight it's just not fair to him or the kids.

 

[bac2therac]

Bardo coming with the excuses for Eddie

sorry it was bad basketball...do you know that some of these guys are being counted on for next year...not showing anything. The only reason they were in the game is because Minnesota sleptwalked, they woke up and game over. There is a reason there are only 6 players that's goes beyond injuries if you want to dig deeper.

 

[RUonBrain]

I know
I heard the stat and couldn't believe it
Every time he has a chance for an and 1, he seems to miss.
Maybe I just miss the ones that go in! (Although he hit 2 later on)

 

[RC85]

agreed

 

[rufeelinit]

Just overmatched with 6 guys. And Minnesota is bad.

 

[G- RUnit]

Good for Goode!!!

 

[RUonBrain]

Goode from 3!
9 tonight
Why doesn't he shoot more often when he is so wide open?

 

[RUonBrain]

Can ANYONE on this team make a 3 point play?

 

[RutgersYay]

Yup. Lost by 22 to the a team who is awful too.

 

[RUonBrain]

News flash
We lost
29 straight
Someone put the horse down

 

[APKnight]

Poor sportsmanship by the Gophers towards the end. I would like to beat this team badly at home.

 

[MCKnight]

Eh was close, called 10 for Goode. Can't kill the kid, not worth of a scholarship, but on a good team he'd serve a role as a spot up shooter

 

[B1GNJHoops]

It's actually 30 straight lol

 

[SDRU]

Been trying to preach that Batie could bring life to the team and he needed some PT

 

[DHajekRC84]

I am so disgusted by what this University considers a Basketball "program" . I see little in the skill and mid set to think what we have next year is going to make much difference. players and especially coach.

I figured Jordan deserved another year with healthy players. Not going to make a damn difference because I don't see much from the guys he has had for 2-3 years. Cut bait.

This NBA approach to the college game is not going to work. Record low for me as a fan of 40 years.

 

[wngarbarini]

I agree with the post that said he was really pissed at Saunders. I second that and could care less if he leaves RU tomorrow. In fact I hope he does and not soon enough for me. To put the team in this position was horrible action on his part.
