    Season Ticket... Who's out?

    2 tickets, 40 years of season tickets Floor 3rd row I'm out It's a combination of things The first being the lack of continuity on the roster . I cannot root for mercenaries that happen to wear our uniform . We don't even get to watch a player develop any more How do you root for a player...

    We watched Latham for an entire season

    This just illustrates why recruiting freshman is pointless in the current climate. Freshman may be cheaper to recruit from an NIL perspective but we should not be concerned with a player's potential anymore. We should only be concerned with their current value. The minute a good young big shows...

    25-26 Current Roster

    Totally disagree; 1. Recruit freshman and develop them? You get inexperienced players with potential that can go anywhere as soon as they show any promise on the court. You still have to pay them to retain them. 2. Rutgers Football did poorly in the transfer portal? While the success of...

    St. Johns had $4 million for NIL

    We had the outside money to bring in two guys that would score 40 pts a game between them without touching our own NIL money. We literally were given the toughest players too find. All Pike needed to do was bring in complimentary players. We returned zero inside players with any proven...

    Pike Failed the Fans, Minimal Effort Towards NIL Raising Would’ve Made For a Special Season

    https://www.on3.com/transfer-portal/team-rankings/football/2025/ These rankings would say that Schiano is doing far better then pike in the transfer portal Not in the same universe

    Roster For Next Season

    Pikes way of building a roster is a thing of the past. There is no reason to pay a player based on potential whether its short term or long. There is too much visibility and volatility in basketball roster construction now with the limited number of positions available. I expect Sommerville...

    Ace and Dylan Attitudes

    I'm sorry, this is on Pike Dylan and Ace have exceeded expectations up until now. I believe their efforts have been excellent up until now but they have to be beyond frustrated with the situation . Each of these kids could be anywhere in the country and surrounded with players that could help...

    Dusty May, in so many words, said his game plan

    i seriously cannot understand our coaches. If I forget the entire roster construction thing for a second which is the real problem. Why cant we get Ace some looks off a screen or two or three in the 12-15' range He obviously doesn't need much space but we still can't get him any better looks

    Poor NIL is the biggest reason for our disappointing season

    This is a failure of epic proportions on the part of Pike and his staff and its not an NIL thing. I was told by a guy leading our fundraising efforts about the Cliff situation. Cliff wanted a mil and Pike told him he could get three good players for a mil. This was a generational opportunity...
