Basketball Francis, second-half defense powers Rutgers to Big Ten Tournament win
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Congratulations to the team on a very nice win. Good luck tomorrow!
LET’S FVCKING GOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!’
Just curious if anyone saved the comments of those who said Francis couldn’t score in the big 10?
So many different guys stepped up tonight. A true team win!
The Official Rutgers Payback Tour continues.
literally one game worse overall and in conference play than our team with two lottery picks lol
Best all around game we’ve played all year against a decent opponent. Played good defense, actually looked good in zone offense, and had 22 assists on 25 FGs.
Pike deserves a lot of credit for coaching them up to play this team.

I don’t understand. According to several posters Medved is a coaching savant who runs a precision offense that’s a joy to watch. Meanwhile Pikiell is a dummy, moron who doesn’t run any offense particularly against zone. How does this happen?
They were a number of good things tonight – – but the fact is, shooting 10 for 23 on three-pointers was needed – – if they had one of their 5–23 games, all the other good things would not have mattered.
Someone told him not to play Denis anymore.
Congrats on the big win. Nice job on the 2nd half. You can win again tomorrow and make MSU try and beat us for the 3rd time..
I would much rather watch this year's team instead of last year's, especially the way they have been playing lately
Dumbest Coach in the B1G.Only 2 more years of this Mickey MouseCoach.

I'll take my chances against UCLA somewhere other than the Pacific time zone
Great win, gutsy effort down the stretch. Let's run that back tomorrow night.
Ogbole is definitely a guy we should want back. You telling me we are going to get two centers in the portal better than what he can be??? He also fits in with our chemistry.

Yeah, MN by 19 and UCLA clocked us by 30 - let's do it!
It’s been rough, but definitely. These guys haven’t quit when most teams would.
Now let’s go hunt some bears.
This is a better TEAM.
I was watching the post game interview with Tariq and it was like “well, Minny killed you guys by 19 and I don’t need to remind you about UCLA…but I will. It was a 30 point bloodbath. How do you guys keep going when you keep getting your asses kicked”
Maybe Keli knew what she was doing. 
playing much better since the announcement….just sayin’
playing much better since the announcement….just sayin’While it was fun to see some showtime moments and even games last year, this year's wins were all based on teamwork and effort on both ends of the floor, as we're obviously not that talented, but sometimes talent isn't everything. I will say I would've liked to see Ace and Dylan with Francis, DB, JMike, Mark, and the recent version of EO.
Hope we get more from Powers and Lino tomorrow, but overall great team performance. Love the defensive pressure.
We went to this matchup zone at times in the second half that allowed us to switch very easily on the DHO actions they liked. Honestly thought we should have stuck with it longer.
Best win of the year

It was a particularly brutal matchup for Lino, not to worried about him
