Dean got beat on a simple drive to the basket. He trailed him on his hip instead of just beating him to the spot. Basketball 101 take the spot player wants get to away from hin. Make him go option 2. Instead he stays on hip picks up the terrible and 1 foul. College basketball have to be better than that. He hot yanked out less than a minute later
I seriously don't understand all the calls for Dean to be in. Are people seeing what's happening on the floor? He is a minutes and fouls guy at best - he is a role player PERIOD who has some significant flaws. There is a reason he gets limited minutes.

Can’t believe how absolutely lost we still look on every fast break opportunity

That half was simply Sandra Bernhardt ugly. And it feels like a long road back with the offensive deficiencies.

Id sit him the 2nd half. Hes playing like its pick up ball
We could really use his energy today, but man somebody really needs to talk to him about letting the game come to him and playing smart. He is flat out out of control at times. Really need to reign in him somehow.

No Iowa has us playing their fast paced up and down game. We are taking out of control ****** shots on the other end. DS needs to play under control
You play great D get a turnover you MUST convert on the other end. You CANNOT take out of control shot. If it's not there pull up and maybe you hit an open trailer going down the key. Just throwing up a prayer just ruined great defense

At least there’s wrestling at 2PM … Iowa loses to PSU finding its groove in the 2nd half … finds its groove vs Indy, then is manhandling RU on Rutgers home court.

To think RU won 48-46 last year. And gave up 42 so far.

Still have 20 minutes to turn it around. Maybe Pike chews them out and they come out on fire, or get blown out even worse.

In the past RU craps the first game after being ranked, or needs one more to be ranked, or is in a tourney game.

Great to be .500 or better. And making the NCAA. Got over those milestones. When (and if) will RU get a win when ranked, or make a tourney run?

If there will be a comeback. Paulie program will need to be huge leading the charge this half!

One more thing. Anytime they double Cliff its a disaster waiting to happen. He either forces the ball up anyway or throws the ball away.

The 3 shot foul call was the turning point. Looked like Wolf never touched him and then fake flop. Still don’t know why he was out 30 feet from the basket.

Team is completely confused today. Go back to your dorms a loser and get your heads out of your asses.
