one last thing.. the fans left the team after they lost that 9 point lead.. how does that happen at the RAC?

 

[RUsince52]

Overall, terrible performance especially after the second half start. And they were just as bad for a while. Can't win with so many empty trips. Didn't learn enough, I guess.

We were due for a home loss but this was a straight up collapse. Up 9 with the ball...Geo misses that open mid range shot and then...we get out scored by 17 the rest of the way? Huh?

Bad shooting half and Jacob and Montez killed us.

Horrible performance. We played so bad we took our crowd out of the game. Michigan has our number, and we should have won both games. Smh.

Opposite of the Illinois game

That was the worst half of basketball Rutgers played all year. After being up 9, they literally had 9 points over the next 13 minutes. Brutal

Wow unimaginable second half. That was tragic. How can you be 2 games from undefeated at home and play that bad.

 

[Candiru]

Simpson gets his third foul with over 11 minutes left. He is essentially the whole team. Yet we don’t go at him until under 5 minutes left. That is mind boggling to me.

 

[Boogs]

Two worst offensive performances both against Michigan. Both at “home” too. Ugh.

 

[jerzeyguy]

Now the team knows the have to win on the road. They better be focused for Wisconsin

 

[Caliknight]

We held Michigan to 16 points below their season average and still lost. That's hard to do.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

We pushed it inside.. did not get foul calls until Michigan was safe.. fn refs

 

[DHajekRC84]

What a POS effort by every player not named Yaboah or Mulcahey.
Paul play 21 mins and ked the team in rebounds with 6 and 4were offensive. 3 for 4.
Geo invisible 2nd half and 4 turnovers. Classic inconsistent play. Must have thought first half was 2nd'?

20% shooting at home 22nd half in this huge game. Wtf???

2 and 4 last 6 now.

Everyone blames the freshman pg who led the team for the loss. Meanwhile he outscored and out rebounded 3 veterans including the 6’11” “star” Center. This board is too much.

Missing threes are us, but missing uncontested 12 footers also kills us. And it's everybody that can't hit them. Plus getting the ball to our bigs doesn't help either.

 

[Hamilton's Cannon]

PS someone needs to remind Caleb the season didn’t end 6 games ago.

 

[Rutgers83]

Sad, season not over, many opportunities to show we belong.

 

[jerzeyguy]

Pike needs to stop playing Mulchay so late in games. He's by the worse defender and always gives up good looks to shooters. Illinois missed, Michigan made us pay for Paul being out there smh

 

[DHajekRC84]

Will Pikell ever get a technical foul and then Maybe we will actually get some calls in a game

He gave up on coach of the year in hopes of Mr. Congeniality.

B's!!! This wasn't a defensive loss. It was offensive. And Paul was 3 for 4. And led the team in rebounds with 6 in 21 mins. 4 of which are offensive.

 

[jerzeyguy]

He's horrible on defense. We would've had more stops if wasn't out there. And we needed every stop we could get

We could have had 10 more stops and still lost. Do you know how many,points below UMs average they scored tonight? You want to take Our jr. . Captain out for his 4 turnovers?
Blows me away you can pick on this kid given his overall game given what crap 90% of the rest of the team contributed tonight.
