Does BTN+ generate any money for Eric’s fund?

Good question. Free parking today?

Good question. Free parking today?

I may be forgetting- but werent you supposed to register your license plate for parking, or am I confusing this with the open practice parking?

Have we gotten any updates on Caleb lately?

 

[Scangg]

Simpson with a niceee move to be basket

 

[Scangg]

Cam Spencer 0-2 but 2 dives on the floor already

Cliff looking good. Hit an outside jumper and in and out on a 3

Paul some good passes and a couple bad plays

Mag a couple scores attacking the rim

Fairfield looks pretty decent. Young is a good coach

 

[RedTeamUpstream94]

Any idea if this on radio?

 

[zebnatto]

Are they keeping score?

Probably? Watching on B1G+

18-17 RU as Simpson splashes a corner 3. 10 min left

 

[Scangg]

Simpson another 3! He is going to play major minutes if this is how he is going to play

Paul leaning into his heel role with that facial hair

Paul goes out for the first time. Simpson running the point. Simpson clearly ahead in the pecking order as first guard off the bench to replace Cam at the 2 and 1st option to replace Paul at the 1

Chol makes first appearance

Hyatt started btw. Dean not in the game yet still

 

[BillyC80]

Female analyst (came on late so I missed her name) on the B1G+ sounds good, with spot-on commentary.

 

[BillyC80]

Dean was in there.

 

[Scangg]

Geo will be doing play by play for 2 games on the radio this year

 

[Scangg]

Dean was in there.

Yes my mistake. Briefly

 

[Scangg]

Rutgers extends the lead after buckets from Hyatt and Mag to 31-24 with 5 min left

Hyatt nice strong take to the rim. Mag mid range jumper

A lot of passing and ball movement

 

[Scangg]

Spencer looking rough offensively. Shot is wayyy off. Has to be 0-4 or 5 until an easy layup. Hopefully that gets him going

 

[Scangg]

Woolfolk makes first appearance

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

My ticket rep said it’s very likely the policy for vaccines and testing could change before this game. For now it’s still vaccine or negative pcr

Wait what. ??

Rutgers still has any measures ?

Any updates on the game?

 

[Scangg]

Miller makes first appearance. Immediately plays great D and causes a bad miss

Paul with some really nifty ball handling and a coast to coast tough finish

 

[e5fdny]

Should have been a separate thread for this, @Richard Schnyderite. Not everyone can post on The Round Table.

Hope no one gets hurt and we play well.

 

[Scangg]

1st half stand outs

Cliff pretty dominate when he gets the ball as expected and rebounded

Mag scored a bunch of points. Grabbed boards. Attacked the rim with and without the ball. Had good position on a couple of his misses too. The Mag breakout is coming. He is clearly the starting 4

Simpson. Splashed 2 3's with an effortless confident stroke. Really nice move to the rim. He looks quick and athletic

Can probably throw Hyatt in there. Couple nice buckets. Started and played a lottt of minutes

 

[fatsam98]

Simpson brings a ton of energy.

 

[Scangg]

Stock down 1st half

Cam Spencer. Looked bad shooting the ball. Missed all non layups and not the in and out type misses. Nice to see him dive on the floor twice though

Dean Reiber. Unless he's hurt, he barely played and wasn't involved at all

Miller PT related not performance. He barely played but made a defensive impact. Simpson looks to be the 1st option as both the backup 2 and 1. His path to more time would be if he was the first option to backup Paul at the 1

Miller Chol Dean Woolfolk played the least minutes. Oskar didn't get any I don't think

Chol did look a bit lost out there. Woolfolk looked athletic. Definitely has slimmed down from his HS tape and looks more like a bball player body now

 

[Scangg]

Paul had an inconsistent half. Some nice plays. Some bad TOs

 

[gregkoko]

Why did this get moved to the RT?

Hyatt looks more comfortable with ball in his hands so far.

 

[BillyC80]

Fairfield playing well but they have no answer for Mag.

 

[Scangg]

Fairfield is a good team. They should do well in their conference
