My apologies, meant in the scoring column. Most nights he does not score 1 in the first half and 9 for the game. Again no disbarrage to Geo.
Rutgers vs. Iowa Game 2 Thread
- Thread starter JQRU91
- Start date
Probably yelled at his son for not getting the shot off in time at the buzzer.
Geo was the Floor General and hit big shots. Real strong game for him.
Weird how the crowd cheered when he made it.
This was by far the best game of the season because Rutgers earned their 7th league win against a ranked team on their home court.It was also their third league road win.Harper was outstanding with his 3 point shooting ,A shout out must go to Thiam for scoring 13 points which is one more than his prior season total of 12 points.The coaching staff did a outstanding job defending the Iowa offense.The importance of the 3 point shot was shown by Rutgers making 11 in one game and clearly giving the team the margin to control the game in the second half.
Now all eyes turn to Wednesday and Penn State at the RAC.I'm hoping for a sellout crowd, a decisive win and a storming of the court by fans to congratulate the team on a unbelievable season .Winning really matters in so many ways.

Could you ever imagine a RAC crowd cheering a buzzer beater in a game we lost?Weird how the crowd cheered when he made it.
You know what.. as the glow of this wins wears off.. I am wondering where THIS team was all season.
We heard about from Geo about recent motivations.. win for the seniors.. win at Iowa to payback for their overly boisterous lockerroom antics in Piscataway.
Well.. if we can put up this kind of effort NOW.. why couldn't we have done that earlier.. more often that is.

sure.. why not... crowd probably assumed it was a deep bench player. I'd root for them to get on the scoreboard

It was 12 points this calendar year which is two months. Crazy stat but it wasn't 12 all season. He had a couple good ones right off the bat before going into hibernation.
Harper and Thiam 3 point strokes both coming back for the tournament makes us even scarier
Yes, I was there to witness it at the RU - MD women's game last month. Of course the crowd demographics at a Sunday afternoon women's game are somewhat different.
They cheered because he could be wide open and not shoot a 3. Drives us fans nuts!Weird how the crowd cheered when he made it.
eh, didn't Eugene do something similar against Wisconsin? I don't see how shooting a meaningless shot is a douche move.
If it was a sarcastic cheer, then i give them props
Don't take it personally. It's an inside joke. I'm sure he's a good kid and he had a good senior night.

When the other team (us) holds the ball and accepts a shot clock violation, and the other team jacks, yes it’s a douche move. Sportsmanship matters.
ah, yeah, I forgot that we had taken a shot clock violation. He should have eaten the ball, I agree. I don't think we'll be seeing a still of it on the bulletin board prior to the next meeting though
"douche move" is way too harsh.. I think the point is that it doesn't matter if they jack a three. The douche move would be for a team up double digits to have starters in and jack a three in the final seconds... if it were my call with a minute left and double digits lead... I'd put the deep bench in with a little nod to the opponents to do the same... and let the kids actually PLAY it out.
Its a douche move because we ran the clock out on last possession taking the shot vlock violation with no shot and then proceeded to not defend. Protocal says game over.
Don't usually have any issue when there are still back and forth attemots with shots put up or its a walk on trying to score

Where was this team all season? Really?
This team was green! They were in diapers. We had 6 players that NEVER played a B1G game. They needed time to develop, get used to the speed of the game and get to know one another.
Our guys have played with effort all season. It’s just that now, they have developed, they are confident and they have grown. There are no switches to flip, all of this improvement is the result of hard work, discipline and great coaching.
