I would be very surprised if we even play tomorrow. Been with a few Rutgers fans at the 2 games tonight and just was at the team hotel bar with a select few having a drink before coming up to my room. It was almost a surreal feeling. From some in the know that I was with, they suspect we will not be playing. It really sucks for the team.

With everything unfolding as it has today and the supposed playing the game with only family and a few others tomorrow, there is too much swirling around especially with Fred Hoiberg getting sick and also the NBA situation with Rudy Gobert.

Forget the plane cost. Forget the room cost. It is just such a terrible feeling. It feels like someone died. I feel so bad for all of Rutgers Nation(all of us), and especially for this year's team.

When I wake up, hopefully the news is the game is still on even though I probably will not be able to attend unless I suddenly adopt one of the players and am able to get included. Let's hope we will play, but I doubt we will play and who knows whether we even get to play in the NCAA tournament.

This hurts so bad. It is only a part of life, but us waiting so long, words can not describe the feeling right now.

Best of Luck,
Groz

Sorry you had to go through this Groz. You are a great fan. Hope you and all the other brave Rutgers fans who travelled have a safe trip home...and maybe we get a 2-3 week pause and get to play the ncaa tourney in April

Life's about what brings you happiness and meaning. Nobody can tell you it's silly to get emotional about a basketball game, because end of the day l we're just meat bags on a floating space rock.

Not referring to the people crisis. That's serious......But,

A Bad scenario is if the NCAA cancels the Tourney before Selection Sunday. Selection Sunday is canceled before Rutgers gets an official Bid. The 30 year streak is not ended.
