Young glued to the bench on a team that has no one else that can get to the rim in the half court. Assanine.

well it was a fun run while it lasted. The team has either hit the wall or been exposed. The lack of Defense and getting out hustled is very concerning, that is what had us winning earlier this year

I cannot believe the team was looking past these guys..

Not sure why I cannot believe it.. I have seen it for many decades now in just about every sport we play

Need to cut this to 10 or less by half

Going to be really hard to do when you give up easy shot after easy shot. They are playing horrendous D tonight and this lame zone is making everyone scared to pull the trigger on the other end

Whatever offense was schemed up for this game by NW its the most potent thing ive seen here. It looks like alot of off ball screens and threes and my god is that working like a charm

PM can not play point from the two guard position. He doesn’t have confidence in his shooting nor his defense.

Pike needs to shorten the bench and not take Yeboah out.

NW only has 1 TO?

Time to reset expectations after this one.

Maybe they have a great second half and break the curse.

If I wanted to watch crappy basketball I would put the Knick game on! This game is close to being over. We better cut into this before half time.

NW playing like they have the winning record and we are back to being sorry *** Rutgers. Mulcahy does not belong out there. We need someone who wants to shoot. He's too scared to shoot and it's hurting the team! Enough with the freshmen excuse for him

Well heres the positive. A black eye type loss like this is going to finally open some eyes to the deficiencies of pike.

Credit to @RUsojo whos been all over it for a couple years now but i didnt wanna admit it as pike was at least having us competitive but reality is nothing has changed over pikes tenure, were still just competitive due to our D and it gives us a chance every game IF a team goes cold or is tired. We quite literally do not run an offense, straight up. Its unacceptable at this level of basketball.

the clock starts ticking on pike next year, ultimately I think we wont can him til after 2022 season though when ron, mathis, caleb and myles dont dance their senior year

They are better shooters, better rebounders and better passers. We may have better athletes, but better athletes that can't put an orange ball through an orange rim may as well be gymnasts because they are of no use on a basketball court.

Sounds like a post for the women's team!

I can’t see us losing this game tbh.

They are not that good good lord 6-15 for a reason
Play on the court says otherwise. Argument can be made we are not that good despite out 16-7 record. Still a 1/2 to go so hopefully we can turn it around.
