Rutgers won

Not the game I am referencing. We lost

 

[Plum Street]

Was that Kent Culuko (sp?)? He was from Jersey originally but I also remember him throwing a dirty elbow in one of our guys’ eyes either at the RAC or down there. He was not a fan favorite.

Yeah it was him and it was a bad loss in 1993 at the rac.

I remember the two different games just don’t remember when and where the dirty foul occurred.

After we beat Jmu In the NIT, we had a classic second round game against the manahattan .

 

[RUPete]

I decided to do a bracket on my own this year after years of deciding not to. I can confirm that no matter what the stakes are, it still pisses you off when you don’t get things right!

Did that enter your 40-year pantheon of March relevance?

 

[RUChoppin]

Looks like we're down to Grand Canyon and Yale as our last chances at a Cinderella making the Sweet 16 - though I suppose NC State might count if you squint, even though they were the ACC tournament champion.

Ha
Not when we lost to Manhattan

Yeah we had the road to MSG paved for us and we couldn’t take advantage.

Wenzel was on the show with mad dog Friday afternoon on Sirius . Kinda co hosting and talking tourney games and the state of college hoops . Some jimmy v stuff.
Really good listen. But he didn’t talk about the 92 NIT

I always thought Bob was a good broadcaster and a good Xs and Os coach. He brought us to a respectable level but he just couldn’t elevate it. Needed a pitbull recruiter on staff. Some of it wasn’t his fault - see Freddy’s earlier decisions.

 

[RUChoppin]

Doesn't look like that Alabama player's head was touched at all - was it just an act?

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Forgot that recruit we got that was overweight and lookked like a guy who was on a burger king commercial.

He should have went to a ACC school. Conference is inclusive for fat people

This Alabama/Grand canyon game is getting very chippy.

Has any non-RU game had nearly as unanimous rooting interest on the board?

Is anyone at all rooting for UConn?

 

[fatsam98]

Gonna switch to that then. Northwestern is in over their heads. Shame about their injuries

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

I guess carrying is not called

Yes Rutgers let Manattan guard scurry the length of the court unscathed in 5 seconds

 

[bac2therac]

Baylor blew a perfectly timed comeback with 2 missed ft

 

[biazza38]

UConn is abusing Northwestern

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Oh no. Not martinelli again.

 

[RUChoppin]

He's out for the rest of the game. Really didn't see any contact that would have caused that. Crazy

 

[fatsam98]

Oh no. Not martinelli again.

Could really go for a pizza right now

What I miss

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

He is so bad

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Could really go for a pizza right now

It would be cold if he delivered

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Time to watch lopes

 

[RUChoppin]

What I miss

Alabama player closed out on a three-point shot, then hit the ground and didn't get up for a bit. Was helped to the locker room and apparently isn't coming back out.

I watched the replay a few times on slow motion, didn't see any contact with his head at all. Very weird.

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Looks like they have figured out how to clone DJ cartinson in the lopes game

 

[fatsam98]

Wait that's not him???

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

Not sure if either of them are DJ

 

[G- RUnit]

First time I saw Donovan K really dominate a game this year.

Where did center from last year end up?

 

[G- RUnit]

Baylor blew a perfectly timed comeback with 2 missed ft

They hit free throws they win this game.

 

[Nycrusupporter]

Earlier this year I remember a couple of posters trying to tell me our defense was better than UConn’s . . .

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

This game is crazy

 

[fatsam98]

Sunday Night WWE Smackdown out in Spokane. Grand Canyon - Alabama is wild

 

[Greene Rice FIG]

7 really needs to settle down.
