    RAPID REACTION — Illinois

    Our defense was really good. That Illinois didn’t dump it down low and kill us is a sign we are fighting and switching aggressively. I still think if we are healthy and play with this defensive intensity we can beat anyone.

    Well, they pulled him from the starting lineup, so it might time to be concerned

    Pike must go

    Coaches are retiring these days with the shifts in NIL and the portal. It’s quickly feeling like Pike is part of this group — good coaches who are just not right for the new landscape. Steve needs a roaster of guys who can guard every position to play together for 3+ years. That’s his formula...

    Relax... We are going to be fine......

    It comes down the role players. Some of these guys needs to step up. Martini, Hayes, Dercack, JMike, etc need to contribute. I’m bullish on Dercack, but the others have hurt us big time.

    GAME 7 ALABAMA: Optimism, Caveat, and the Needle

    One issue is that we don’t have 3 and D guys. We have 3 guys (PJ, Martini) and we have D guys (Dercack) but if we had a guy who could knock down shots and wasn’t a defensive liability, we would be a drastically different team. We need to keep DHarp, Bailey, and JWill on the court as much as...

    RAPID REACTION - Notre Dame

    We won’t be able to do it in every game, but the defensive switching in the second half won us the game. We had a lineup that could guard every position, reminding me of how we played with guys like McConnell. Will be tough to do tonight and against teams with strong post players, but I like...

    RU chopped through to the last play - I can live with the loss

    What upset me the most was how much the injuries hurt us in this one. I felt like Felter and Longerbeam were both sorely missed, not to mention Toure on the rush, of course.

    Have seen Pike over multiple seasons- a one year player or back up portals dont change the reality

    I like Pike a lot and hope next season is a success, but what worries me is that what has made Pike a great coach — developing players on the defensive end and on the boards — takes time and unity. In this new era, your roster is going to look so different every year. When he had his most...

    Is Simpson Around Next Season?

    This season is young. Simpson has had some big moments; let’s not count him out. I think he will be a huge contributor before the end of the year.

    Rapid Reaction - BU

    We just look like a team that hasn’t played meaningful games together much. Lots of passing and sloppy turnovers. I’m confidant we will settle down and pieces will start clicking. Our backcourt looks much quicker, but we just need chemistry to come along. I’m pretty sure we will have games where...

    Dylan Harper Update

    Dylan is one of the top prospects in the country. It’s not like the opportunity to go to just about any school wasn’t already a factor when many prognosticators said he was a Rutgers lean.
