Do you think they regret going to Rutgers? I know they probably went to the highest bidder but basketball players are competitive. No one wants to play on a sorry team.
Ace Bailey and Dylan Harper
- Thread starter Boyd94
- Start date
I think Harper was a lock going there just given his dad. Maybe Bailey has some regrets. I thought Rutgers would be better with those two.
They, like many one and dones likely could care less about winning in college. They get the bag and are still heading to the league
Maybe the better question is….is Rutgers happy they entered the one&done arena .
Yeah, cause all the other guys not good enough to make the NBA aren't doing it for the money lol funny.
Seems like the season is going about like last years . They were 19-14 or something. Would have been interesting to see how they would be if their big center hadn’t left for Bama .
I mean, Wall and Cousins made UK competitive day 1.
If these two top5 recruits can't get Rutgers to compete in a conference that's undoubtedly not "all that" as its not the SEC, than thats on them.
But they probably couldn't care less. Lol

Different era. Wall and Cousins didn’t play against teams full of 5th year guys. And Harper and Bailey are not built like those two either. They were grown men.
Also, Rutgers doesn’t have a Patrick Patterson to help them out.
Yeah talk about comparing apples to oranges. Like another poster said, it would have been interesting had the center not transferred to Bama.
Probably more than anything, the game is no longer played in a way where players can use just sheer athleticism to dominate games, like a John Wall or Derrick Rose could.
Patterson does help our case, as does Miller and Liggins.. but Rutgers still has some talent.
Until a couple of years ago many of them weren't doing it for the money and outside of P5 schools many of them are still doing it for little to no money.
They spent a lot of money for a 9-8 record. Maybe they should have spent some of that on a better coach that could win. He has a 52% career win percentage.
