    Basketball Rutgers Basketball ranks Top 20 nationally in the Transfer Portal

    lol what? He played in the LNB—that’s nowhere near Big Ten level, and KAT has nothing to do with that league. Calling him better than guys who’ve already already played here is foolish

    We should go after Najia Hines...but will we?

    Per-40 stats don’t mean much here—he wasn’t conditioned to even average 20 minutes, so that production wouldn’t hold up.

    Agreed. Even Dylan and Ace was not enough to win without a competent front court

    Lino Mark

    People are writing Lino off way too early. Calling him “low upside” just isn’t true. He defends better than any guard on the team, has a 4%+ steal rate which is very strong for a guard, and a 44% free throw rate which means he gets to the rim and draws contact at a high level. He also converts...

    OT: Derek Simpson

    You can say that about literally anyone on any team. Of course a team might have more wins if insert* player played better. That being said, Lino is the 9th or 10th man, and his role barely dictates the outcome of the game

    OT: Derek Simpson

    I don’t think it’s a fair comparison to line up Game Score or PER between players in completely different roles. One is the lead minute guard, the other is essentially the 9th or 10th man. Those metrics are always going to favor the player with more minutes and possessions, and they also don’t...

    OT: Derek Simpson

    Did you not watch the Oregon game? Alongside Tariq, Lino’s energy and ability to get to the paint, finish and hit 7/8 free throws is why we won. I don’t think Jmike, has had a bigger impact on a single power 5 win this year, and he’s played more than double the minutes! Correct me if I’m wrong
