yes the talent sucks but beyond that there some disturbing signs...excessive fouling...arguing with refs...senseless turnovers to a bad team, not bringing effort, no leadership
Does. Pikiell ever get after any of the players? I mean getting em out and giving them the business. Don't necessarily mean Bob Knight but you can't always be mr nice guy players coach when you see some of the plays these guys are making.
not saying that but the point is he is not immune to criticism. I like Pike, but the talk here is almost like he is god, reality is we won 3 Big 10 games last year and may win the same 3 this year and finish in last..next year you are talking about the same just about....so slow down, yes we need to be patient, however we need to be realistic too...he needs to improve the recruiting big time and stop sugarcoating recruiting right now. RU needs ALOT and Pike made some mistakes by redshirting Johnson, not booting Bullock, taking Mensah and Kriss transfer...its killing us
Knee to knee, definitely a dislocated knee cap, hoping that nothing is torn. Eugene is the heart of the team without mike on the floor
I'll be long dead before this team makes the NCAA. At this point I'd be giddy at 500 before I'm in the ground.
How so? I’d say the fans are pretty good. Sticking by a terrible team and a lackluster program for 20+ years.
They’ll be back next game to cheer the team on
for next year.....Mensah and Bullock need to be booted out. Juco guard brought in, hope to get lucky with a 5th year guy....I am not so high on Johnson so maybe review whats going on with that. This program needs an infusion of players who can contribute..they do not need roster spots or marginal talent playing
Feel so bad for omoyuri. Probably my favorite player on the team. Huge loss.
Losing Mike Williams was HUGE. There was a good bit of enthusiasm and some very good performances up to that point. We had no margin for error or losing players.
