Is Baye Fall really 6',11" and 200 lbs?

[RutgersClassof2004]

That's what Google says. How is that even possible? Also, how did RU pack zero pounds on him since he signed?

 

[Shelby65]

He is nowhere near the top of the list of problems.

But near top of list of NIL!

Doubtful.

bro this is what you're worried about?? we fvucking lost to central Connecticut state

Well, neither Arkansas or Kansas St. could bulk him up either. He looks like a famine victim on the court.

 

[RutgersClassof2004]

I am also gravely concerned about our Euro Zrno. He was hyped as the answer preseason. Guy looks lost on floor against creampuffs!

Not really, he was pretty cheap considering there was little interest in him. That fit Pike's budget perfectly.

Those few minutes Baye played tonight were as atrocious as can be.

Dortch needs to be the primary backup.

Baye is a 5* bust, it's fine to say it at this point.

Unfortunately Dortch is going to get his clock cleaned playing the 5 against real competition. Just hope the guy doesn't get hurt.

 

[RUskoolie]

Baye has no strength at all, so he cannot play in the paint. He cannot shoot at all, so he cannot play on the perimeter. He is just a really tall and lanky person. He should probably be playing in the NEC. He’s useless.

 

[Sweet Pea's Corner]

RU got bamboozled getting Fall.

 

[biochemist001]

RU got bamboozled getting Fall.

Nobody bamboozled Pikiell on taking Fall. He spent 2 years on the bench at Arkansas and Kansas St. Pikiell f****d up. He wasn't bamboozled.

 

[EddieWilsonLives]

can we get a confirmed NIL payment summary for each player? it's the only way this nonsense stops and ALL NIL donations totally stop , so eventually we leave the Big Ten. imagine putting your hard earned money out for any of these guys.

No one got bamboozled or f*cked up, it was a desperation move because of what bigs cost in the portal. Fall didn't cost much of anything to get on the roster and you see why.

Put him out of your mind. He’s just another in a long recent line of misses. Not close to B1G level.

This is comical, this is the roster because RU doesn't have major donors.

And where is RU going if the leave the B1G, the ACC is a disaster and will be extinct as a major conference sooner than later. The American? I think Pernetti would say no thanks as retribution for being thrown under the bus as AD. And what effect does it have to the recruiting for every program, you haven't thought that through.

You are correct , and it never will . so people throwing them hundred here and there are lighting their money on fire.

Yeah but people do that daily in their every day lives buying lottery tickets/scratch offs, cigarettes/vapes, going to AC, daily $8 drinks at Starbucks, buying overpriced concert/show tickets, etc. We all pick our poison.

The benefits of being in the big ten go far beyond the performance of the basketball program specifically

the entire university benefits so it’s just not going to happen

the actual decision that has to be made is whether Keli will go find actual donors in corporate America like most schools with large pockets do or if we’ll just ride it out until the big 10 kicks us out

because leaving is just never going to happen

We had a big man last year we all didn’t like who got close to 1 million at Washington and we thought he wasn’t all that good

we couldn’t pay for him or justify paying him based on what we had so we signed what we could afford which is this

The wallet we had was similar to bringing a plastic fork to a gun fight

We make them too much money to be kicked out.

And we’re still not the worst.

It was worth taking a flyer on him as the 2nd or 3rd 5.

It wasn’t worth giving him so many minutes. He was totally lost. Couldn’t cover his man and prevented others from covering theirs.

It's not like Pike has a 30+ minutes starting big so his minutes would be limited. We really needed someone who could play like 15+ quality minutes. Woolfolk is a better player than Baye Fall and we ran the guy out.

Hindsight is 20/20. I don’t think anyone was clamoring for Wolf to stay a year and a half ago.

But agreed. He’s been a much better player than Fall has ever been at this level.

There is definitely some truth to that but the market for big men is also a problem

Some were clamoring for guys to stay. Upperclassmen are better than when they are freshman. Everyone thinks guys need to be ready right away. It doesn't work that way. I'd much rather this team w Simpson, Griffiths and Wolf over Francis, Zrno and Fall.

Yes, unless Keli can get the funds RU may never see a legitimate big in the future. Revenue sharing is going to push the market for them even higher this coming offseason.

I mean, I think most of us would have preferred them over who we brought in last year as well.

Gavin left on his own though - don’t think anyone wanted him to leave.

He probably would have played way more if he had stayed because Pike would have been desperate for anyone to step up not named Ace or Dylan.
