    Rutgers sports scores big in proposed N.J. budget, will get $100M for arena, practice facility

    Billions of federal tax dollars flow every year from blue states to red states so your premise is wrong. Would rather have tax dollars support higher education and research programs than go to states who refuse to support their own citizens including paying for good education and then expect...

    We should fire Pike after this year, however reality is he’ll get fired in March 2024

    Everyone sticks out their neck, you are hilarious again thinking you are special. It's not about being right or wrong, but how you interact. I said things disagreeing with you about interactions among players last year after talking with the players myself but even then I made it clear that...

    The enigma of Geo Baker and comparison

    This is not about toughness but please stop repeating inaccuracies to support your point, use real facts please. Geo was raised by a single mother who twice lost everything due to healthcare issues. See Geo's interview on Vice TV. He starting selling T shirts to help out when his mom had cancer...

    The Case for Giving Jones Mulchaey's Minutes

    I agree. And I think Pike is good about knowing when to let players play through mistakes (in OOC obviously) and having their own frustration then motivate them to learn from their mistakes and play better. I think that's a big reason why JY progressed so much at Rutgers.

    OT: Jacob Young Starting for Oregon, Offense being run through him and dominating

    Unlike you I support ALL the players and I wish them the best. When Ron and Geo had much more serious ankle injuries you didn't give them a pass. And you keep trying to fan make-believe player versus player feuds at Rutgers last year with wrong information like one player "being asked to...

    OT: Jacob Young Starting for Oregon, Offense being run through him and dominating

    I hope JY bounces back in his next game. I enjoyed watching him play and adding his energy to the floor when he was on Rutgers. We've talked a lot about the weaknesses of the Rutgers players recently and JY has his too. Like many players, he typically plays better when the team is ahead and that...

    Geo’s Body Language is that of a sulking child, he needs to be chewed out

    Geo’s Body Language is that of a sulking child, he needs to be chewed out

    Getting into NBA will be difficult but I don't think he ever hyped that up that I recall. And he never said he would get rich. He talked about the example of himself, starting a t-shirt business in HS to help his family financially as one example of why kids should have the right (that everyone...

    Here is article with pic from game. No look at me or disengagement. Focused and communicating. https://www.onthebanks.com/2021/11/13/22780358/unfinished-business-4-thoughts-on-merrimack

    AND you can't have it both ways. First you say you don't want a player to be a point guard and then you say he's pressuring the entire Bball staff to not be a point guard. You should be happy about it then.

    Well I'm sure I know more than you since you just make things up, including whole conversations. This is the basketball board where people talk about RU basketball based on actual things that happen, not on fictional conversations.

    You're "sure Geo has let Pike know.."? I'll have to report you for placing illegal recordng device in Pike's office then. Please send the tape.

    1. You don't know what's in someone head. 2. Denying NIL was wrong. Kids brought attention to it. Move on and focus on basketball. The kids have.

    Why sum are mad at Geo...

    Yes, exactly. The NCAA did not restrict money/compensation received by themselves, coaches, staff, schools, media. Only players. The way some of you talk you make it seem that a few players were able to hijack the Supreme Court. No. Not even close. But when something doesn't go your way you...

    Why sum are mad at Geo...

    Umm maybe you don't read much. Those contracts were ruled to be illegal because the NCAA created a monopoly. Or are you an anarchist who's against all rules? Do you want to get rid of rules of the road, rules against theft, rules against fraud? Because that's what monopolies do, they set up...
