Wow awesome effort. Need win on Saturday (though another Q1 away win on the road I think will seal the deal) and then get a few days off before the BIG tournament starts.

I was thinking the same thing during the last media time out. Then they come out of the huddle and Cliff doesnt look tired at all. Must be in incredible shape.

Yes unlike you, he didn’t give up on his team
Uncalled for, IMO. Tons of posters "gave up" on the team when they were playing badly, which is par for the course in a stream-of-consciousness game thread - you would not have wanted to hear the obscenities I was screaming for much of the game, but especially the last 19 seconds, when we almost blew it. IMO, what happens in the game thread remains in the game thread - although as I said in the game thread, people were way too quick to give up.

Posters are giving up 3 5 10 min into the game though it's pathetic

Cliff is blessed with truly freakish athleticism. I didn’t know until tonight that he leads the NCAA in dunks. I’m not at all surprised.
I've seen the stat a few times... we should get a Cliff dunk title tracker thread going. I didn't look hard but quick Google didn't see a stat for it

The posts in the first half were pathetic. We didn’t play well, but not like we **** the bed either. Responses were commensurate with shitting the bed

Kudos to Cliff. Not 100% sure but It seemed like Geo played the whole 2nd half too. Harper played most of the half too. In a huge game, all hands on deck...

No need for this stuff again, especially since you know it’s aimed at a huge, passionate Rutgers grad and fanatic
This team needs our support. Tired of guys who continually ridicule team and Pike. As I mentioned, people made it seem like we played horrible in first half.

Glad we're playing Sunday and not Saturday.

OT: IUPUI played five guys for 40 minutes in their horizon league tournament game
I think Cliff could play 40 minutes tomorrow lol. He's built different.

He is putting up James Bailey numbers of dunks
Never thought I would see another RU
Player near that

Doesn’t matter, it’s a game thread.
Stop calling out passionate fans.
Zap, you seem like a great guy and I enjoy your posts. Surprised at how you defend those who spew and criticize those who challenge the spew.

I’m highly aware of in the moment, exasperating comments by frustrated fans Ancient.
If you know the person is a “dick-non fan”by all means criticize, we all know who they are.
But Bac? C’mon….the dude hasn’t missed an RU game in 30 years and lives and dies with the Scarlet Knights…he doesn’t deserve being called out over being frustrated in a game thread.
All my opinion

The tone of the posts in the game thread at this point are quite predictable. Have been for years. If you do not care for them then you should just stay away rather than feeling the need to cleanse yourself by calling out others afterwards.. I tend not to post a lot there while watching a good game because it can be distracting to me. But during the commercial breaks, at the half or timeouts, I will read and contribute.

With regard to Cliff playing the whole second half, he might not have been the only one. Caleb was out because of foul trouble but not sure Ron sat and I think Geo and Paul might have been very close to a full 20 as well. I mentioned in the game thread that shifting to the zone might have allowed them to play more minutes but I also thought a little fatigue was contributing to Gernomino hitting some big shots around the paint in the second half. He was fresher off their bench.
