    Top 5 Rutgers Point Guards from 1970-Present?

    Eddie was tremendous. MVP of the Eastern Regionals in ‘76.. and for everyone who said he was outclassed by Michigan’s Ricky Green in the Final Four, it was Eddie who had the better pro career!..I saw him play when I was a kid - his dad sat in front of us at the Barn (drove up from DC) .. lost...

    He’s only worth it to another team that also has a real center

    Sweet Sixteen Thread — Thurs/Fri

    Was thinking the exact same thing! Especially coaching on the inbounds passes & timing of timeouts/designed plays after

    Official NCAA Selection Show thread - 2025

    Louisville/Creighton should not be playing each other in 1st round Carolina should lose to San Diego St.. I was at the game where they beat Houston in Vegas

    Scheduling

    Yes, can should avoid any of those landmine games. Nothing to gain, lots to lose. With Vegas Tournament, there is nothing to lose. Houston lost TWO games there (I was at both games) & they are still a #1 seed.. (Also Creighton looked terrible there, losing 2, and almost losing last place game...

    Scheduling

    not reasonable to get out of Vegas.. nothing really to lose there. Always much more to gain. Carolina has something like 1-10 record Q1 and May still get in the tournament. Since nothing really expected next year, take the NIL money. Schedule sensible easier home games at RAC.. then see what...

    Pike is just an idiot.

    Minnesota timeout was a completely different situation .. there, playing on was the correct call with only 8 seconds left & the ball in backcourt.. With 20 seconds, you can set up various options with a timeout. Instead we went iso for 15 seconds with star who somehow got cold feet on shooting...

    Basketball Rutgers Basketball Suffers Double OT loss to USC in Big Ten Tournament

    Why pass off?? To a non 3 Point shooter? Drive to basket, maybe even get a foul

    Free Shakes?

    I used it twice this season at the Shake Shack by NoBr Costco. No purchase & no questions.. saw on email from yesterday that now $1 purchase required. Couldn’t go today anyway, but as for principal, probably would not have anyway, unless in mood for burger..

    Did Rutgers make a mistake with Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey?

    Mistake was not hanging in to Cliff. Period More evidence this weekend. Was perfect fit for offense w Double teams on Superstars.. defense significantly better too..

    10th Place in B1G on the line

    2020 also had an Eastern Regional scheduled at the Garden... so could have even been a final 4 run.. was the toughest team we had too. No loss by more than 12 points

    Losing Cliff cost us the NCAA Tournament

    Not having Cliff is not only difference between making/missing tournament, but also being a team capable of a deep run. Even though he didn’t play much for Alabama vs RU in Vegas, if he was was on RU playing significant minutes, we win that game

    Five Most Brutal Losses of 2024-25 Season

    winning one of those 2 games in Vegas would have been a great opportunity, and could have put us ahead of the curve going into the Big Ten, even with the 2 "brutal" losses.. Oregon won the whole thing in Vegas, which jump started their resume. Even with a mediocre Big Ten season, they are...
