Geo Baker Tweet
- Thread starter MadRU
- Start date
Agree or disagree maybe not the time for this?
What's more disturbing is the RU Screwpod tweet underneath it
I wish Geo would save this conversation for when the tournament was over. All focus should be on stopping Nick Honor from embarrassing us again.
Hence the problems with his game, I think he should not let the knob hit him in the Ash.

I mean, I 100% agree with Geo on this too. But I 100% disagree with the TIMING of his tweets.
Shouldn't the focus be on beating Clemson? I just don't want some sort of controversy to erupt over these tweets, which would distract him and the team from the task at hand.
This is not the time. If the players come together and boycott i am so done with college basketball. Geo fastly becoming my least favorite. Now complaining NCAA makes 900 million and players in a bubble all year get nothing lol.
This is the time people care. People get all worked about somebody having an opinion. It will have no effect on the game
One from RHJ as well. Laser focused on Friday.

a bunch of players speaking around the country as wel...Bohannon too
okay then they all need to put their money where there mouth is...go out and refuse to play in the tournament, some will praise and some will just laugh them,
I wish I got free meals and free tutoring, free academic help, free workouts and free education plus free publicity

Really. Where is the focus on playing Friday. Geo is more focused on this crusade than the game looks like
To the 'Why now?' crowd, please stop! NOW is the perfect time for this conversation to get the attention and hopefully the traction that it deserves. The NCAA has drug their heels on this conversation for YEARS. They throw a bone out last year and then continue to delay any type of decision. It's a joke. NIL should be table stakes at this point. If the NCAA doesn't evolve, they will cease to exist. Good for Geo, Ron and others for using the platform to force conversation on change. If you think this makes them any less focused on winning a game Friday, you must have never picked up a ball in your life. They will be ready to play.
It’s a student athlete movement. They’re not alone in posting it - it’s starting to trend.
The NCAA makes 70% of its money on these two weekend. That’s the point of doing it on the eve of the tournament.

give up your scholorships then and go and work for you money
guess what...the players are safer here then they would be at home and they would also not be at risk to infecting their mothers and grandmothers....yeah life is so tough in the bubble...life is tough with trips to the speedway, life is tough getting all expense paid trip to Europe
I wasn't good but I played competitive sports from age 8 to age 28. This would absolutely make me less focused on the task at hand. Hopefully, that isn't the case with our team.
If Geo doesn't stop attacking the NCAA, methinks there will be an NCAA investigation of possible Rutgers recruiting violations down the pike. No pun intended. In light of his continued complaining, how can anyone think that he is coming back for a fifth year.
They all knew what they were getting into when they were getting recruited.
I saw the reply to Rothstein’s tweet about kids complaining that discussed getting deodorant and boxed meals while the ncaa makes 900mm last night. Thought about posting but decided not to. Would like to read JR response. I guess this kids feel like they will never have a better platform. Also they have little else to do while being isolated which seemed to be another point in Geo’s initial reply.
If he does not make the pros, he will want to be paid to play college ball.
He's right. He isn't property. He is free to leave whenever he wants. No one is making him play college basketball.
What I want to know is who forced these guys to sign to play basketball.
They knew the deal going in.
You sign to get a free scholarship to a four year education, and in turn you play basketball.
If you do not like that then don't sign.
If they didn't like the terms then don't sign to play basketball.

Who cares, you know it's possible for him to feel strongly about this and play his heart out Friday.
Great timing guys!

Amazed at some of these comments, considering you all consider yourselves 'supporters' of these young men. CBS paying damn near $1B for these rights. Meanwhile, Geo can't even conduct a basketball clinic back in Derry, NH and charge kids $50 without it being a NCAA violation...but at the same time Coach K can run Duke fantasy camps for old white dudes for $5k a week. You have to be kidding me if you think the system isn't broken and they should shut up and dribble because they get a scholarship. It's 2021, time to evolve the model.
If they do not like it then stop playing give the scholarship to someone else or better yet do not sign at all
