At the 5

Probably depends on what those equal pieces are, safe to say Manny isn't getting votes no matter the set up here
I liked Myles Johnson a lot, but he was frequently in foul trouble, averaged less than 22 minutes a game, shot almost 40%, not from 3, but from the foul line, averaged 6.8 points and 7.4 rebounds per game and blocked 1.5 shots per game. He did shoot 60% from 2. For most of his career he was the best we had at the 5, but these numbers don’t exactly shout out first team Big Ten.
I predict Gurdak will be more impactful and fortunately there are some options behind him at the 5 with this year’s team.
This poll is premature. How about this season we vote after we see Gurduk for a season
Defensively he was huge. 2.4 blocks per game his jr year but most important he deterred offense. No one wanted to challenge him. In 2019-20 he lead the Big Ten in defensive rebounding rate and total defensive rating. No other player on that Rutgers team lead the Big Ten in any advanced stat.
How about we don’t. Suppose I say that on October 24, 2026 you have these four centers to choose from for the season given what you know, which is of course limited.If you had to choose one, who would it be. Yes, this involves considerable speculation, and I apologize if this offends you. An option would be to simply not respond.
It has to be 100000% obvious we’d go with Myles who is a proven B1G starter - the glue to our defense and if we had a better offensive system I believe he could have scored more
Gurdak is a TBD
Cliff underwhelmed most of the time
Ogbole sucked
The poll question was who would you want on the floor right now as your 5. Based only on two exhibition games it’s risky to take Gurdak over a much more known center like Myles Johnson or Omoruyi and their known abilities, but Gurdak looked so impressive with his ability to score, rebound and court sense that I would go with him.
Not 10000000000000000% to me. Choosing today--which was the point of the question--I'd roll the dice and go with CG.
I did it as a courtesy. Why be an a/hole and pretend you know iit was a lack of seriousness.
Including a guy who clearly doesn't belong in the conversation you are supposedly trying to drive is being an a-hole as well.
As someone who has done a considerable amount of polls, I love this one. CG could well be the best 5 we have had since Hinson its great to watch people ***** about your format when it doesn't conform to their logic
I do but didn’t make the connection.’next time use last names
Pretty slow not to make connectioun. Next time, think. Who do you think you are telling me to use last names? ? Chet, you realize you're a little fukn hard-on, don't you?
Wrong. It's showing appreciation ("a courtesy") to a guy who gave his all for RU. Just don't vote for him.
Over Pikiel’s coaching career who else would you include at center C.J. Or Shaq? Not a long list of Big Ten level centers to choose from.
Dude relax. So you can’t take somebody suggesting you use last names? You need thicker skin man
Or, as you said: “Who are Manny and Chris? Could you be any less descriptive?”
“next time use last names”
i’ll stick with my description of you. But I do like your use of dude and man as your openers and closers, very cool.
Continuing to act like an a-hole is a rather interesting approach since you took the lazy way out in making the poll options.
