Biggest game of his life - five assists and zero turnovers. ZERO.
Paul Mulcahy UNREAL STATS
- Thread starter RUSCFORMERLYRULOU
- Start date
Truth be told, he happens to be the best man on the floor.
He is calm, cool, and collected at all times. Smart kid.
Geo Baker - “Paul will be a Legend when he’s done here”
He really created so many smart plays tonight. Over the past two BIG games, he hasn't looked like a true freshman at all. It's going to be a lot of fun seeing him develop more throughout this year and the rest of his time at RU.
Three CHEERS for Mulcahy!!!
Everything slowed down for Rutgers when he came in.
:WooHoo::WooHoo::WooHoo:
I wouldn’t call them unreal stats but played a very good game. Looking forward to continued improvement.
Love his game. As a fan you feel like good things will happen when the ball is in his hands.
We are in section 105 and we had the perfect line of sight behind Mulcahy when Myles had his man pinned in the low post IN TRAFFIC IN THE LANE, with Myles’ left hand up as a target. Paul saw it, looked away for a sec and passed it perfectly to Myles’ hand, for an easy catch and a Myles lay up.
A thing of beauty. Even the Russian judge gave that pass a 10!!
I hope he works hard on his shot. If he add a shot, look out!!! Love this kid
Hoping we see the same kind of soph year improvement in Mulcahy that we do in Myles.
All 6 Guards have at least 1 more year after this. Not a bad problem to have.
He has a shot, just didn't want to take it again. There were times I was screaming for him to shoot ! He's over 50%!

Someone above said it... he settled the team down in the first half when we looked completely lost.
Then Jacob punched them in the mouth. Love it.

Paul plays like a Brazilian in soccer. Beautiful and creative
Great job OP!
Paul Mulcahy single handedly kept us in the game for about 10 mins in the first half.
He did so many little things that dont always show up on the stat sheet...wow...I LOVE this kid...

Excellent description 83. Nice to get that perspective.
That pass down low to Myles helped stem the tide. Critical play in the game.
You can see Paul being the floor general. I love it. I feel good about someone getting an easy two when it’s in his hands. And the great thing is he has so much upside and things that can be greatly improved to make him an even better player. Defense , mid range shooting and being an offensive threat — that’s gotta be his offseason focus and I’m sure he’ll improve on those massively
I'd like to see him take more shots and be more of a scoring threat. There were a couple times he had a wide open shot and passed it off.
Paul would rather get an assist than score. I said this a year ago after seeing him play 11 times in high school. So many said he was too slow and would hardly play. He is a PLAYER and a very important part of our team.
he is playing almost the most minutes 2nd game in a row

He drove to the lane. The book is he will pass. He made a layup with the active NCAA leader in blocks (is that really true?) next to him
This kid is a stabilizing, calming influence.
He was overwhelmed by the foot and hand-speed of this level at first, but he’s learning the spacing and angles every game.
He still can’t get his shot off, but that will come too.
Great vision, along with protecting the ball, and getting much better on D.
He’s now another big piece of our success

He's got a 3.5:1 assist to turnover ratio on the season, and a 10:1 ratio across 4 B1G games. Wow.
With his uncanny natural court vision and (so far) unwillingness to shoot, plus his really strong rebounding ability for a point guard, he's basically our version of Ben Simmons. I personally think he's the best basketball player on the team and have since game 1. Not the most athletic or the best shooter, obviously. But the best basketball player. (Go ahead, ridicule me.)
I don't know about "best basketball player on the team" - but he's definitely out there playing chess with opposing defenses. "I fake here, you shift your weight there, I dribble here, you overcorrect, annnddd.... there's the passing lane I was looking for." Just a lot of fun to watch.
You’re inviting people to talk about his weaknesses so I’m not taking the bait.
I love the kid
But I heard on postgame (Jerry Recco or WRSU) that Mulcahy was the only Rutgers player to have negative plus/minus last night so there's the negative if you take that stat as something.
