Basketball LIVE THREAD/PREVIEW: Rutgers Hoops versus Michigan

[rob kight]

Outplayed by 3 freshman

 

[ImBadRU]

Hyatt liability. Such a disappointment.

 

[gigantor1024]

This game is garbage

 

[CoachCap36]

This is so frustrating

 

[GORU2014]

Paul needs to zip it and play

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

These refs hate paul

 

[hbbsm713_rivals]

So frustrating. I had hope this would be different. Guess not

 

[Scangg]

Paul can't catch a break on either end and the rest of the team crumbling instead of stepping up

Shows how important Paul is

 

[shields]

Ron sat too long. That was a joke.

 

[ImBadRU]

Their freshman are top 100 players

 

[rob kight]

We don’t need Hyatt shooting king threes

 

[RW90]

They're playing with house money now. Free and easy.

 

[bethlehemfan]

Stop blaming the refs, we can’t score and our defense is slow

The refs deflated us. I blame the refs.

 

[richthedentist]

Ron is nowhere to be found and we we can't score a ****ing bucket for 10 minutes

Yeah he gets a 3 point play and Pikell promptly takes him out

 

[Plum Street]

Almost time to warm up the bus get ready for Wisconsin

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Don't blame the refs for him playing like ****

Maybe he's off tonight but the 2nd foul was b.s. and he's getting fouled continually .

 

[RUTrack94]

Still a lot of time left

Sounds like the same message I heard repeatedly in the Minnesota loss

 

[80RU]

In the first half the almost identical contact was an offensive foul against Harper. This has been a horribly officiated game.

 

[TonyLieske]

I guess I am just used to this. Rutgers does something to get the countries attention, and then we **** the bed while everyone is watching. All those commentators that jumped on the bandwagon are going to think twice before they compliment Rutgers in the future.

 

[MLBash93]

Mag plays like a bull in the rodeo. Just runs around without any direction.

 

[cubuffsdoug_rivals]

Can someone people tell how that is a blocking foul on Paul, but that same play, in the first half, was called a charge on Harper?

 

[bethlehemfan]

Look we have no energy I get it. But it is deflating to get screwed all night. I know some of you don’t get it.

 

[KingOfTheEast]

Have to go 3-0 the rest of the way

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

This is the team that lost to UMass and Lafayette

Yup. No energy or urgency from the start.

 

[FIJI'83]

So now the season is going to come down to beating Whisky at home. Hope Davison has another poor night shooting 3s.

 

[RedChucken123]

Paul is not there today.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

These refs hate paul

Yep. Ref memo #1 tonight was get him out. Has played poorly but they put a bullseye on him no doubt.

 

[richthedentist]

Ron sat too long. That was a joke.

He was out for the 9-0 run I don’t know what Pikell was thinking

 

[RuBird]

Need a Paul Crewe moment here. Fire a ball at the ref then give him a wet Willie and ask him to call a fare game

 

[ScarletteK80]

Paul's worst game in a couple of weeks - needs to stop whining and start playing hard, like he can.

It's the constant toddler whining I can't stand.

 

[anon_0k9zlfz6lz9oy]

Texted my group chat first two minutes about geo’s body language. His whole game can be predicted on his body language. Some games he comes out just looking like depressed. Other games he comes out looking all giddy and ready to eat someones lunch. He came out with poor body language and knew we were doomed

 

[Shell21]

Refs are brutal but we are playing like crap regardless. They are crushing us in the pick and roll and we can’t score at the rim

 

[rufeelinit]

We needed this one badly.

 

[Ridge 22]

Their freshman are top 100 players

Why does that matter. You only need some hard working, under the radar types that you can coach up. Or so we are told.

 

[RU848789]

Stop blaming the refs, we can’t score and our defense is slow

Exactly - it's 9 to 6 in fouls and sure a couple were bad calls, but a couple of bad calls don't make for a 12 point UM lead and them shooting over 50%

 

[cubuffsdoug_rivals]

Hyatt liability. Such a disappointment.

just stop it.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Paul can't catch a break on either end and the rest of the team crumbling instead of stepping up

Shows how important Paul is

He had been a leader when things were going well. He needs to be a leader when they are not.

 

[Rokodesh]

Refs are brutal but we are playing like crap regardless. They are crushing us in the pick and roll and we can’t score at the rim

Refs are fine. We suck tonight

 

[scarletknight077]

Too predictable. Whenever the stars align for us like last year nebreska. This year Minnesota and now Michigan. We dont show up

 

[rufeelinit]

Martelli is showing more energy than we are on defense!
