Basketball Rutgers Basketball ends season with loss to Creighton in College Basketball Crown
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Lino Mark is one of the highest energy and at the same time most selfish player’s I’ve seen. Seems as if this year may be all about tape for USC/UCLA.
These are a bunch of guys that are not very good at putting the ball in the basket.
We need a lot of help.
Pull up that shot chart. Creighton just hits 3s and goes inside and gets fouled. RU jump shots and runners that never go in
He’s worse than invincible. He misses rebounds he should get. He doesn’t come in and provide help defense when he should.
Yeah I mean we’re going to have to drop 2+ mill on a big.
The players are going to change every year, that’s whatever, I’m more concerned about the consistent issues I see.
He’s a frosh and it’s frustrating there is nobody inside to look for. That’s what I’ve been trying to say. Big O is the only one worth anything but he doesn’t know how to get open on his own unfortunately.
The other guys? Nwuli? Grant? Even Buchanan providing nothing today (though I really don’t consider him a forward anyway). Denis hasn’t checked in. No Fall. We really have no interior game at all. Just whatever we get from BIG O. He’s by far the most underappreciated player on the team. It’s like he’s the scapegoat - folks say we’re bad because he’s not a good enough center. More like - we suck because he’s the only one who can help at all.
This game confirms we need at least 6 new players, and Grant should announce his portal intentions before the plane ride home. Wouldn’t pay him a dime
No surprise the most lopsided game of this first round is the one coached by Pike.
And along with the new players - we better have a different offensive game plan; not even looking to shoot a 3 - is ridiculous.
Same issues existed last year with 2 top 5 NBA picks.
Go look at the shot attempts from Ace and Harper last season. Insanity. We work so much harder than opponents for points because of offensive identity.
Needs to change in a big way.
Its not just guys on the inside. He doesn't look for ANYONE. Completely ignored a wide open Francis on the wing after rebounding his blocked drive, instead trying to force it up through multiple defenders. Leads team in minutes, still no assists.
Creighton’s offense is either hoist up an immediate 3 or let Graves iso and draw a foul. And it works
Yes he is an effort guy. Last time I checked the boxscore he had as many rebounds as Grant, Buchanan and Ogbole combined.
We are better off only shooting 3s the rest of the game on every possession…we cannot hit a layup and too many selfish people driving the the lane and only looking for their shot.
graves killing our defense (he is getting some calls by refs too)

Ive said it all year on EO. People think I mean hes good. No, hes just the best we have and should just play as if hes a normal center. Give him ball in post every once in a while, not a touch only on first possession of each half.
If Grant is on this roster next year I don’t think I’ll be able to watch any games
This game confirms we don’t have a starter for next year, if we’re going to be bubble team. anyone Brought back is a bench piece, including Francis in his 6th man role
After watching this Id be happy to see none of them next year
