Rutgers down 9 with 2:00 to go just took 25 seconds to get a shot up.

The problem with this team is that we have like 8 guys that are essentially the same player and usually 4 of them are in at the same time at any given time. The only player out there that is different is Myles Johnson
That would be great. If they could shoot.

Myles Johnson has played a good game around the basket.Baker good first half and then disappearing act in the second half.

It’s one game and Pikiell is a notorious slow starter IMO he doesn’t figure out rotations til game 2 or 3 of conference play every year

The assessment isn't based on just one game. I will grant you we looked putrid until like mid-January last yr too but I'm not sure that's much of a defense.

Gio was awful after the first few minutes . Can’t win road games with your most experienced player playing lousy and turning it over . Also 0 points gm for Caleb and young isn’t going to cut it

Bac and kyk might as well repost any recap from last year. Seen this rerun all too often.

a bunch of role players it is turning out.....the same thing we had under Rice and Hill except we had Rosario and Mack who could hit 3s, I would put this team right now below some of the Hill years

They were looking ahead to Michigan State...hahaha

Seriously, just dont see much progression in the team from last year. I am not sure what others are seeing here and maybe I am missing something.

Very undisciplined team
FT shooting is abysmal
No offensive strategy
Very loose with the ball creating turnovers for the other team

OK ... try to be positive ... broke 60 on the road ... had a lead in the 2nd half ... no one injured ... still early in the season

Pike's rotation choices have to be very demoralizing to the team. Hot hands get pulled. Young continues to get way too many minutes. I just don't get it. Short of a complete turnaround this year - I just don't see it happening unfortunately.

Passing was a joke. Not strong with the basketball at all.
