Maryland plays hoops like it should be played

Rutgers will lose by 25

Wallace missed two point blank layups

Jordan can't compete with their centers, she is a huge liability in a game like this. She also got away with a push.

22-8. CVS needs to retire...she has decimated the fanbase in the last few years

She recruited one player and her style is for the 80s. Every school plays good defense..most better than RU

I would hope that after multiple years playing Wallace would make layups on a consistent basis.
Wrong, she was never meant to be a starting center anyplace. She has hands of brick as well. I would give Tyia more minutes if she is healthy enuf.

It is stunningly obvious why we are 17-5, and unranked, while Maryland has two more wins than us and is ranked #13 in the nation.


and its a down year for Maryland

RU feasted on the dregs of the league...5 of the 7 conference wins are to the 3 worst teams in league

Lot of parity/mediocrity in college basketball this season especially when it comes to shooting.Long scoring droughts far too frequent.

Where were you in the Penn State game thread a few days ago?
You seem to show up and pile Coach Stringer and the team during bad games.


where was I...we beat awful team, it meant nothing, thats why i wasnt there because I knew the level of play would get exposed when we play the real teams in this league. This today tells you where the program is on the national scene. Its a good Maryland but its not a vintage Maryland team and they are easily running the doors off of RU. The so called vaunted defense gave up 44. This program is good enough to beat bad teams but cannot compete with any top 25 team and that has been proven for the past few years...go find the record of cvs vs top 25 programs of late, its frighteningly bad

maybe I hold the program to standards because CVS had a great program going in the 00's but its clearly slipped. The article you posted was quite telling. CVS isnt really coaching this team anymore and that is an issue going forward. She is more a figurehead. Its time to figure out where we want the program to go going forward.

Thanks,Knight, saved me the time. But he is a RU FOOTBALL fan too, ironic much?


I have seen when this team is awesome....2007 is so long ago. We literally have one player. Guirantes is so good but I dont know what the heck happened with everyone else.

Noga still MIA, Joiya, and Alexis both still injured. No excuse though for the two seniors. Never had much use for Jordan, she is still woeful. But, KK where did you disappear to?

Disappointed to see a route at the half ... UMD on the road is a tough order. RU will finish Top half of the league with 20+ wins. Might get a game in either tourney. I’m happy whenever RU is in top half of B1G standings.

I don't know. I that his role? I like him A LOT but when he coached games last year it was more about tempo and style. I'm thinking somebody that can develop a players shooting . Re. Wallace. That is a fairly simple turn and hit your spot off the glass shot....not just throw the ball at the backboard stuff.
