    Would a different coach actually bring in more NIL here or would it make no meaningful difference?

    Nope! With the current NIL situation, goal simply needs to be to hire a GM with financial background with the ability to unravel RU alumni with Wall St ties searching for a hedge fund guru or similar super rich person(s). Of course, legal background as well to handle the NIL contracts. Wow...

    Andy Katz rates Ace Bailey as best player (not just freshman) in B1G. Dylan second best

    Hopefully, we have our rebounding in check before we play Maryland Queen/Reese matchup. They have (2) really tough bigs!

    Jamichael Davis was recognized as 20 under-the-radar breakout players by Jon Rothstein

    JMike=toughness and energy especially on defense so he will play. I think he’s best suited to come off the bench. He just needs to work on when to drive to the basket and become more aware of space. Hope he continues to develop his game, could be a huge leader next year post Dylan/Ace.

    Carino: Steve Pikiell on Rutgers' roster construction, schedule, leadership and summer workout plan

    How about JMike being the toughest kid on the team? After FT shooting, we needed an infusion of toughness. Pike thinks this team will play with purpose and toughness. Obviously, last year’s team was short on talent and toughness.

    Tyson Acuff - incoming transfer

    Thinking JMike may be a sleeper at the guard position for minutes. His defense was excellent as a frosh and is only going to get better. There will be many opportunities when we need to press and contain a big time scorer and will need his stout D.

    JWill Shoots Free Throws Like a Pro

    JWill is just so confident. It’s really remarkable how he missed 709 days on court and emerges as a team leader playing with confidence and swagger like he’s never missed a beat. He’s not tentative or plays just to fit in, he has taken a position of leader sharing the ball and making his...

    The enigma that is Derek Simpson

    Derek has some many good qualities, will be an important piece in next year’s rotation. I think he just needs to understand the level of practice needed to improve his shooting. As he gets better, confidence will go up.

    Mag

    Mag is a vital cog for next year, no doubt. He is a complimentary player and shouldn’t be expected to lead team in scoring. His experience and rebounding will be crucial next year. We need to see some JWill/Ogbole who could be a big part of next year’s roster. We have outstanding frosh class...

    2-0 with Mag Back

    He may be my fav player, just love his energy and defense. Also, hoping like last year, he develops as the season moves along and is that indispensable teammate. He will be a vital piece for next year being an experienced leader, defender and rebounder esp with all the frosh coming. We hear a...

    Jeremiah Williams May Be Eligible Soon: Decision Wednesday 10am

    I know kid made a mistake with the gambling matter (thinking a lot under 21 kids do gamble) but isn’t it about time the punishment ends. Kid transfers from Temple to Iowa St but doesn’t play at ALL due to injury and now judges’ decision cancels out the two transfer rule. Perhaps, we can get some...

    Pikiell Postgame

    Hoping coach was “ornery” in that locker room. What is so puzzling is Pike’s evaluation of his team. This is clearly not an 80 point team. The rebounding is terrible and how can you up the pace if you can’t rebound. Coach thinks this team is good?? Last nights game: Wake 29-11 RU 37-21 Wake...

    Let’s get off the ledge …and focus on this week

    Our team philosophy last year (led by Caleb) was we don’t score they don’t score! This team needs to adopt that philosophy and embrace it. Our only chance to succeed is defense and rebounding and we cant increase the pace on offense if we don’t rebound. We are better off in transition getting FB...

    Breitman Breaks Down Noah Fernandes’ Game

    Noah is not real athletic but is shifty and crafty, love the hesitation move to basket. Just want him to show the leadership to run the point and finding Cliff in open space. Was happy to see some swagger in him, got to like that feistiness on defense. He may be the most important part to run an...
