I hate to make enemies on this board but I feel the OP just invited the a-holes (they know who they are) to come out of the woodwork. Why can't the moderators delete un-constructive threads like this. I'd like a response since I've been a paying customer for a long time. It makes the board unreadable.
@Richard Schnyderite

You have to tag him if you want him to address something.

For starters this is on the free board, not the premium board aka The Round Table. So I will admit that it does get moderated less as the paying board would be our main concern. Also if you see something against the rules then please hit the report function underneath said post as we can’t go through every thread and check every single post, then it will alert our team of mods plus myself, then we can determine if further action is needed.

End of the day we like to let people vent each and every opinion whether it’s in agreement with everyone else’s views or not. Will there be debates? Of course but that’s what makes this forum so popular. Now if you don’t like a specific posters views/post then I will suggest you use the ignore function and you won’t see anything they post anymore.

Now if you want strictly more information and less back and forth — check out the premium board The Round Table as that’s where everyone goes to get inside scoop on the team, recruiting and more. Any other questions or concerns please send me a private message and we can discuss.

Obligatory disclaimer: I think Pikiell's recruiting is fine, not trying to run him out of town, etc.

The 2024 contact period opened at midnight.

Here's a Twitter search to catch all 2024 prospect who have heard from Seton Hall: https://twitter.com/search?q="heard from" seton&src=recent_search_click&f=live

I count eight: Deuce Jones, Jaye Nash, Brayden Crump, Kany Tchanda, Trentyn Flowers, Jaye Nash, Jason Asemota, and Malachi Palmer.

Here's that same search for Rutgers: https://twitter.com/search?q="heard from" rutgers&src=typed_query&f=live

Zilch.

Now, no prospect is making their decision based on who contacted them at 12:01 AM but this strikes me as the sort of no-downside thing the staff should be doing. Presumably they've contacted Dylan Harper and no reporter has gotten around to reporting on who else has contacted him. I guess there are some others too?

But three have "heard from" Penn State. Three have "heard from" Wake Forest. Three have "heard from" Stanford. At least six have "heard from" Kansas State.

Why is Rutgers sitting at zero?

Best to get Pike on a podcast so Richie can ask directly.

My guess is they aren’t at zero.

Pike likes to get to bed by 10pm.

The irony is great. The cupboard will be bare because we are losing so many great players. Pike can't recruit. We are losing McConnel is the #2 ranked super senior and B1G DPOY, Harper who is an NBA guy, Baker was an All-B1G player. Cliff might leave early to go pro. Pike can't recruit, except for all these A+ players that are leaving I guess.

Just to be clear there have been a ton of updates about Rutgers contacting players since my post.

Obviously the coaches depend on my message board advice.
