Why not? Reiber shut down TJD. If he picks up early fouls, who cares? Maybe Rutgers can hold serve early. Save Big Cliff.
Start Reiber on Edey?
- Thread starter RutgersClassof2004
- Start date
I dunno about starting, but I imagine Dean will see his share of minutes along with Willfolk.
Reiber would be tossed around like a rag doll.
I wonder if the Purdue board is having discussions about starting their back up big so Edey doesn’t get into foul trouble hahaha
Why would we start our 3rd string center against the best center in the country?
Difference is it's road game. Cliff prone to early foul trouble on road.
What if he doesn’t start comes in and gets 2 quick fouls?
If Cliff wants to get to the league he needs to bang with Edey early on, straight up. He can’t hide from him.
Maybe it was random, but Rutgers started trouncing IU with Cliff on bench and Rieber against TJD. We have nothing to lose by starting Rieber or Wolfolk.
No. You live with your star center, who very well might be playing in the NBA next year. If he picks up fouls early, then that’s on him but no other team doesn’t start their future pro center because they are afraid of foul trouble
Really this is just a foolish discussion. Cliff should start and will start.
Fair. Let's see what happens. Cliff would obviously get his minutes regardless. I stick by the idea.
Stick by the idea that’s fine. But even if Cliff picks up fouls early, it’s still the right move to start him.
Let’s start Aiden Terry while we are at it. Have him start a fight with Edey and get both out of the game.
Yes, but to be fair so is starting Reiber
So he’ll still get them when he finally comes into the game and meanwhile you gave up 5 minutes of him on offense.
Lol I realize I am getting killed by other posters on my unconventional idea! We will see. The idea is Rutgers with my man Riebs could hold serve without our star big man getting sent to bench with 17:00 left in 1st half.
So your idea to keep Cliff from riding pine all game because of possibly picking up fouls is to voluntarily have him ride pine? Pure genius at work here.
Lol is this thread for real
Wtf
Wtf
Oh...there he is...finally showing his face! Maryland over Michigan lol! Seems like you were off by what, 40?
Reiber plays smaller than he is and Edey is much bigger than Jackson-Davis.
But it is Tuesday. Cliff doesn’t get in to foul troubles on the road on Tuesdays when B1G network is doing the game
Reiber looked like a child when he tried to guard Edey. He got absolutely abused. Dean put up zero resistance. This is an all time bad idea
If you are worried about Cliff, why in the world would you even consider Dean over Woolfolk? At least Woolfolk likes to bang and has physicality to his game
You start Cliff.

You start Cliff.
As far as I can tell the logic is:
We can’t win if cliff doesn’t play
So sit cliff
So that he can play
You are a great poster, but I just don't see things as you do here. Cliff will get nabbed for two in first 2:30, and ride pine all game.
