Myles was phenomenal. When he is engaged and active the team is so tough to beat. He controls the rim. Rebounds getting swallowed up. His timing on blocks is very good.

We still don't get him enough post touches. A few times he had great position with no post entry

With Myles it is about consistency. We need him to give us more of these types of games where he unleashes the monster. If we get his A game we can beat anyone and compete for the B1G title

If had, or can develop, a little inside/post game, he would be an absolute monster/superstar.

Agreed - really showed what he's capable of tonight. When he plays with that kind of passion, he's a force. He and CO, who played pretty well, were a combined 16/21 - that's some production (I missed the first half - assuming they didn't play together).

I appreciate everything about this kid - effort and skill on the floor, clearly a great teammate - but also a very thoughtful and aspirational guy outside of basketball. Proud he represents Rutgers.

More of an edge tonight loved it. a shoulder chip away from being dominant nightly.

BAC, He is the difference between our team competing for a championship and finishing in the top half of the league . His wing span is ridiculous , as Hummel said in post game , he “snags rebounds, just engulfs them. His shot blocking and altering shots is now elite. Our only problem as a team is that they do not give him enough post touches as Scangg said. Put him on the block and he can back someone down and last year he had a nice jump hook over his right side. If he gets a drop step he will be really be a force on the offensive end. He is unselfish , a great passer , and he looks faster this year. Only one silly foul with the reach on their guard outside. If he eliminate those silly fouls , we can beat anyone. He set himself on picks and got no stupid offensive pick calls tonight. Dominate performance tonight as they had no one that could handle him. He could have had 20 tonight but Ron rightfully wanted to take over the game so hopefully he saves it for Illinois and Iowa.

He was dominant on the boards tonight. It’s textbook rebounding. It looks like he is the only one jumping because of the physical box out. Also, can’t teach strong hands. Sign him up at TE next year.

Great night for Myles and the team. Kudos to the coaching staff for Myles progression into a dominant big man in the best conference in the country. Truly an inspirational player on and off the court.

Look out Garza! Just kidding, but his versatility is something to see: rebounding, blocking shots, intimidating shots, passing, catch and dunk, and now free throws!!

Myles understands he has help and can now defend and rebound...his switching defense on perimeter helps prevent 3s, even though he's away from the basket. He's improving by being on the court, but the league is loaded with quality bigs....

He gets away with not boxing out because of his wingspan.
