How did a greatly outmatched RU team go head to head with, and ultimately beat, nation’s #1 team and complain about coaching? Do you know how many of decisions a coach has to make in the course of a game?

Team had one helluva effort for sure, and Pike does get credit for that much like he was getting criticized for lack of effort in other games.

Also Harper is a straight up dog and played the best game of his career tonight IMO.

But my issue with Pike has always been with things like crappy plays coming out of timeouts and offensive sets. I’ve been consistent in saying this, but IMO he doesn’t put his players in a position to succeed offensively. Nothing I saw tonight changed my opinion of that.

Again, I’m happy as hell the team won, great effort and RHJ drives the ship. We go as he goes.

Seriously disappointing thread. On my a night I figured Rutgers nation would unite just for a day or so.

We’ve had way too many negative clowns that have been spewing the same negativity over and over on this board the past month plus.

I was actually serious. I hope they enjoyed the last 2 minutes from their couch. They probably tuned in when they got a text or saw it was a close one via Twitter.

Well I can't speak for them. I enjoyed every freaking second of it and have been getting texts from old friends from all over the country tonight. Nothing gonna bring me down tonight.

Hahaha. This is the most Jersey thing ever.

Something beautiful happened tonight, and your first response is to turn around and yell F*CK YOU to people on your own side.

I think if every poster here had it their way, Schiano and Pike would have a dozen naty’s between ‘em, and we’d be donating money for their statues in 10 years’ time.

Lighten up. This post proves that you, like all of us, are too emotional about Rutgers sports. Enjoy this HISTORICAL WIN.

Sorry but I couldn’t help myself after reading this board the last few weeks.

Also when probably 50 + % of the 200s around me (which are all season ticket holders) are filled by Purdue fans, it had to be said.

Geeze, unbelievable that you'd post a thread like this right after such a scintillating win.

Spirited effort. Epic finish. Great f'in win!

Mag flashed tonight. If Pike can process Palmquist and Reiber and mine the portal for B1G caliber players, we should be competitive next season.

Hahahaha.

Go root for another team.

While I agree with the OP I’ll always root for RU… the criticism of Pike early on this season was warranted.

100% agree there is always room for criticism.

I just prefer it to be constructive as opposed to negativity on a broken record.

Tonight was a great night to be a Rutgers fan. And that last second Ron Harper shot was the greatest shot of the college basketball season so far this year. WOW. JUST WOW.

I always assume everyone would understand that regardless of what’s posted about a game or the team on the boards, it’s in the context that everyone is happy for a win and wants the team to win. I say this again before posting what comes next. Which is…

Somehow criticizing pike after the 35 point loss was being overly negative, (same could be said for losses to umass and Lafayette as 20pt favorites) and shouldn't be allowed, but gushing over him for a 2 point win over Purdue is just what we should do automatically no questions asked.

The reality is when we were REALLY terrible people were very critical and when we were “pretty good” against Clemson people were commensurately positive and tonight also positive in line with the outcome.

Now if post are referring to the firing threads in particular than ok I see the thought behind it but that and the other criticism are separate but being lumped together (could be wrong).

Its definitely fine to be critical. No one (including Pike) expected to be 5-4. Where I draw the line is with the fire pike idiots. That’s just insane. Pike has done an amazing job here but he isn’t perfect. Rutgers will have years they don’t make the tournament. Fans have to understand that.

To be fair, the only thread on it was to hire a HOF coach in his place.

The only other name thrown out was by Kyk and even he said not until 2023-2024.

If you wouldn’t hire Pitino tomorrow then I think you’re insane. But we all can have our opinions.

I haven't been paying close attention. Have people actually been whining about the men's basketball team because they're a little down this year??? Didn't they almost beat Houston in the tournament last year?

There have actually been "Fire Pikiell" and "Nails in his coffin" Threads. 😂 😂 😂
