    March Madness Expansion to 76 Teams

    Think schools like RU "should" like this in theory. Will put in us in the bubble convos a lot more frequently if we can get to the that even lower middle of the B1G. Having said that...gross!

    Coaching Malpractice

    I actually disagree that the pass shouldn't have been made. Getting the ball to the middle of the floor is almost always a good idea because of the space. The biggest screw up in the whole thing was Cayden immediately turning and dribbling when he had no idea what was behind him (up the...

    OT: Should Hurley have gotten a Technical Foul?

    like saying every time you put two hands on a guy it's a foul...sure it's a rule but it's just not enforced. listen to Hurley with the PMT guys...this is such a non story and just people getting mad for no reason.

    OT: Should Hurley have gotten a Technical Foul?

    stuff is called different at different times of the game, different situations of the game, and different stakes of a game. welcome to the real world... and did you hear Karaban's interview where he said something to the effect of "that ref was different than the other two. you can talk to...

    OT: Should Hurley have gotten a Technical Foul?

    if you call a tech there the entire building and everyone on TV better know exactly why in the instant you blow your whistle... you don't call one because a bench guy put two feet on the court for a half a second or whatever the hell this is above... it's one of the biggest shots in the...

    Coaching Malpractice

    i agree with this and think all the "coaching malpractice" stuff out there today is just 20/20 hindsight armchair coaching... they executed the inbounds play just fine....got it in to best player that uconn didn't want to foul...back to the inbounder before the double team got there...right to...

    **** all the people who think Pike can't coach

    This argument is never going to be settled so every time it's brought up by one side after a win will be brought up by the other after a loss. The biggest difference in the two groups is just expectations. It seems like on one side you have the crew that is just NCAA or bust. Don't want to...

    Basketball Francis, second-half defense powers Rutgers to Big Ten Tournament win

    agreed...i'm sure we're going nowhere but our path to the finals is about as easy as one could hope.

    GREAT Piece by Fonseca on Pikiell Playing Caveman Basketball

    So question for you since you said net negative. Seems to be relatively understood that we had bottom 3 NIL money along with PSU and Nebby. What Nebby is doing is ridiculous. Guessing all the winning will help them get out of the bottom 3 next season...but will be curious to watch if...

    GREAT Piece by Fonseca on Pikiell Playing Caveman Basketball

    Pike Really Has to Go...

    Certainly agree it's not only about money. Do think that is the driving force though. I mean I know we all just say the "Pike was good at developing players over 4 years" line over and over and I think it is correct overall but let's also not pretend that he didn't have a lot of success with...

    Pike Really Has to Go...

    I do agree with rotations being a legit concern/cause for criticism. Early season losses happen to high major programs all the time, but it does seem like year after year we are just throwing crap at a wall and seeing if it sticks. Really don't understand why Badalau was starting as long as he...

    Pike Really Has to Go...

    probably my favorite post I've seen of yours. i don't even agree with most of it (i still think most of the issues you listed are nil related) but appreciate the effort in trying to come up with real world solutions to the current problems.
