That is what you say when you do not land the top recruits.
Yet those players helped us get to the dance arguably two times with an outside chance of a third. Yet someone after a loss to a ranked team the Pike haters come out hmmmmmmm

How BIG is your if
Not as big as your chubby when we lose

You are a weird dude who gets off when we lose

Like you're genuinely fired up.

Thats why you're a loser. Always will be. Even when we win and you throw around back handed compliments

You're a straight up loser.

And you take losing as its' common place and it shouldn't be.

Reiber has developed into a player who would come off the bench for plenty of teams.
Palmquist we'll see after continued development. Not everyone sees the floor for major minutes on every team
Miller is a defensive sparkplug which every team needs and again continued development (which Pike has delivered in spades) will be key
Agee has been a great teammate/locker room guy but I agree there the play hasn't been up to snuff. Got some good minutes in a few games but well worth taking a flyer on him considering it was a one year commitment
Your head is in the sand.

Jalen Miller is Rudy. Useless hustle player. Pray he transfers with Palmquist and stops stealing a B1G schollie. We need offense, I refuse to see his value over Jaden Jones.
Take a look at Ozzie Smith’s offensive stats through the fist quarter of his playing days and tell me how St.Louis kept him on the field for the rest of his Hall of Fame career.

A useless hustle player? Even at the middle school level kids make teams based upon their defense.

Give yourself an fminus.

The portal renders the term “for a while” moot.
Well, it’s not moot. Pike needs to get a stud in the portal this year. He hasn’t done that here …yet . So it’s a legit concern.
He also gets more equity in the fanbase bank if he makes the tournament this year.

Miller has played great defensively. To tell him to hit the road is flat out stupid.

And yes, I don't know why he doesn't shoot the ball. That's frustrating .
This may have been discussed elsewhere, but regarding Miller's defensive play and "deny" defense yesterday against Wisconsin:

Jalen Miller played 16 minutes.
Chucky Hepburn played 35 minutes. 13PTS, 5-11FG, 2-4 3PT.

During the 16 minutes that Jalen was on the court, Chucky Hepburn scored 0 points, and RU outscored Wisconsin 29-20.

It felt like we played well with him in. This is good to see.
I actually don't think Miller playing as much as he did and not being a threat to score was a problem. There aren't a ton of teams that have five legit scoring threats on the court at all times. Miller's D was about as good as it gets yesterday.

Anyone who understands basketball saw what Miller did yesterday.

Hilarious people chosing this game to rip him. Makes zero sense.

At least you can use this to identify those clueless

It’s the B1G, gotta play both ends. He isn’t even a remote threat on offense and his defense is over-rated, no balance.

Nah., I went to Rutgers and grew up next to Seton Hall in the Ivy Hill Apartments. Actually the philanthropic and business communities of Santa Fe embrace me. I have access to the mayor 24/7 and every key philanthropic and business entity in Santa Fe and I'm on numerous boards. So you Pike-eez I'm sorry that my jersey candid speaking on this board has upset you clowns but I'm extremely well respected both personally and business-wise where I've called home for the last 26 years.
Sounds like KyK’s brother

The recruiting crying has been proven to be exaggerated.

Our stars didn't execute Saturday. Had little to do with the bench.
