Okay loss is somewhat on the coaches but the players have to make shots. Our two best players had a horrible game. Hopefully they get a couple good wins on the road against better opponents and those wins should knock off this loss.
Basketball GAME THREAD: RHoops vs. Penn State
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
Because they could hear them all since the arena is so carnivorous you could hear people peeing in the bathroom from court side
Just a very soft and pathetic performance by our guys. I don’t blame the coaches. Our players played like ****. Soft as charmin if you want to get punked you will. No heart. Embarrassing. Grow up boys and grow some hair and play on the road for f sakes.
Frickin douche bag frat boys with their nasti ******** was disturbing cuz there was no one in the place.
Well
It just shows how different we play on the road
I have seen this many a year and this year is no different
Again I point at the Water years as a comparison and we eventually gave up on him when he could not fix it
Pike has to do better than Waters in regards to the road
The game today was inexcusable , we did not even compete

Teams with veteran leaders are not supposed to be this impotent on the road. As underclassmen it was expected. We should be better on the road with all their experience
Need Luke to bring energy on road like he did without fans. We always play off energy. Need to generate our own like we did without fans.
Shoot 34% and won't beat anybody.
Our first few shots were clean looks and hit none.
Every time we closed to four or five we could not sink another to make it a one possession game.
Once they hit the two 3 pointers in about 8 seconds it was over.

yes its unfortunate that they turned this into a tit for tat and now every bad peformance will be brought up to counter the good performance. Its two straight bad games for Geo offensively, so he an outstanding game vs Michigan but then totally has disappeared. A veteran leader is going to be criticized for efforts like tonight, it would be nice if all the media guys dont protect him yet again
Yep. When PSU nailed back-to-back 3s after RHJ cut the lead to four, that was all she wrote.
Penn State asshats calling Rutgers a safety school. Now that was funny!
Coaching is definitely to blame for some of those insane lineups and for not getting to the team to even act like they give a damn.
Nah man. F that. It’s on the players. Coaches don’t mean ****. Players have to have some pride.
Isn’t it a coach’s job to bring that out of a team? If that’s the case, sit Ron and Geo the rest of the game.
Can't lose this game and think we're dancing in March. I was starting to believe again...
Lol. Ok sitting geo and Ron is the answer vs geo and Ron showing some maturity and showing up? Mmmk
They might want to look at the average SAT scores, lol. RU > PSU.
We would have danced 2 years ago with 2 b10 road wins. Probably need to win 3-4 road games and all but 1 or 2 remaining home games to even have a chance.
No letting them sulk and continuing to play is. I guess we don’t even need a coach then…let them sub themselves.
Thankfully, one league loss does not ruin a season.
Finish the regular season 9-6 and we're sitting on the bubble... 10-5 and we're dancing
Then you would complain about rotation. Bottom line it’s our seniors sucked.
Yes they did. But the coach is not blameless for a pathetic team effort and watching Palmquist flounder-flop on the floor for half of the game.
Not sure where the road wins come from other than maybe Nebby, NW long shot. I hope I'm wrong of course.
I was actually surprised he only played 12 minutes, it seemed that he fell more than 12 times. Personally, I think Palmquist is the last scholarship player on the team. I don’t like what I’ve seen from Jones, but I would even have played him or Hyatt more.
it also not that it’s just Palmquist. There was an extended period where Palmquist, Reiber, and Mulcahy were on the court at the same time. Mulcahy is fine when he’s on the court with good players, but put him with these two and we play like a rec league team. Palmquist fell three times on one possession and Reiber fell immediately afterwards. The lack of athleticism and foot speed was glaring.
Teams with VETERAN LEADERS. Geo is a 5th year senior who has started essentially all 5 years. Ron for 4.
Caleb for 4 and Paul too with tons of experience. Hyatt has experience.
Cliff Reiber Miller with the least experience and the ones who played decent actually

But you’re right…pike makes 2.6 million and gets credit for wins but the players only are to blame for the losses…got it
Hey you can't criticize Pike on this Board... It's like it's a socialist military environment and he's the ultimate leader. If you criticize him your family members might disappear.
