If they play like they did this past week they can be a second weekend team
Dayton per Wachtel Saturday 330
- Thread starter RUsojo
- Start date
And last year has absolutely nothing to do with this year. Plus, I’m not “hating” on him, the guy is doing his job, I just think he knows how to get attention to what he’s tweeting and he’s doing it well. Good for him!
Winning games is better than losing games. Excellent insight as usual.
Another example of the inconsistency. You can negatively factor a missing player to the detriment of selecting but you can look at say the last 10 games? " Body of work"
We'll which is worse,m a team missing a key player doing well or a team at full strength on a losing streak last 10?
@kyk1827 we can definitely make a second weekend run if bracketed properly. No question playing the way we did the last two days.
*** to my wack-a-doodle friend/stalker - on his fifth monikerin the last two days - please read my above words very carefully. I am not saying that we “will” make a second weekend run. It is not a definitive statement. Comprende, amigo?

It means he’s good at his job and predicts things correctly. Pretty easy concept.
Buddy you said he’s purposely ranking us lower for clicks. Just an all around silly comment.
Maybe, maybe not, but I’m allowed my opinion. No big deal. You realize that these guys do purposely tweet things in order to get more followers and more responses and retweets, correct? It’s part of their process. This is nothing new.
Without the Michigan win, I think Rutgers would be in real trouble. But, that win bumped up the median-NET-win quite a bit for Rutgers. When RU had 18 wins, the Wisconsin win (NET 82) was 9th best. Now the 9.5th best win would be a solid 70 NET (Michigan is 58 and Wisconsin 82). Average NET win is horrible due to the weak non-conference schedule.

His tweet has 53 likes in 2 hours. If Brad wanted to move the needle it’s not working at all.
@AreYouNUTS if he wanted Twitter engagement he wouldn’t be tweeting about Rutgers lmao
I’m starting to think the two of you are the same person lol!!!
Get real. We had the Lafayette loss as well as UMASS plus no blowouts out of conference against a mediocre schedule. Our NET was high all year and still high after beating the 4 ranked teams. Still was in the 70’s. We were sweating Selection Sunday and a blind aunt was predicting Dayton.
This year we have the same lousy OOC schedule but he conveniently forgets to mention we beat the Quad 4’s by 35 points each. We have no Quad 4 losses this year some tourney teams or bubbles do.
Our wins especially on the road are elite and very few teams in the country , if any , have a better win than at Purdue when Purdue was the hottest team in the country and overall #1 team
Our metrics and NET are good and the third best defense in the country is something no team other than # 1-3 seed teams can boast ( Houston UCLA Tennessee )
There is no comparison between last year and this year.
This guy is the most negative tweeting guy around , sloppy , lazy.
Go compare Auburn resume to ours and Brad has them as a 10. Their best win and there are not many is against Tennessee who has lost to almost the entire SEC in the last 6 weeks. Check out their losses to the top 2 teams in the SeC , Alabama and Texas Am 2 times, plus Georgia. , Vandy,Kentucky Arkansas , who they beat as well They also lost to Memphis USC and WVU teams in the field.
They have done almost nothing
At least you’re starting to think, that’s step in the right direction
Pretty much. I don't want Dayton but it's not like we're projected to the two seed.
SOR is very important… it’s the common dominator used to determine how difficult achieving each teams record would be. Its also one of the few metrics that can be compared apples to apples with Mid majors. Being last in the field makes me nervous but considering 7 wins v field + Purdue win I think Dayton makes sense (if not better)
You are one of our least knowledgeable posters and your takes always have a slight at Rutgers. No wonder you are defending BRAD.
You never have a problem with his post / tweet only accentuating the negative things and not balancing things on the positive side in the next tweet. His last 10-20 posts about RU are either negative or neutral. Anyone following him gets the negative take. That is not accurate or good for RU. But I am glad you like it because after all you are the fake fan who has been called out on this board multiple times. Do us a favor go root for another team.
Why don’t they look at the 4 quad 1 road wins? Not being blown out all year? Winning at Purdue!
Also almost all of our losses have an asterisk * next to them - 1 or 2 starters missing, winning shots that should not have counted..

He mentioned a million positives about Rutgers on the most recent podcast. He’s not anti Rutgers he’s a Rutgers alum. Can’t fix stupid geez.
Defending him? I said tough to argue. You want to argue with the guy who’s better at this than nearly every college basketball fan in the world? Have fun. Wish I had your brazen arrogance.
Also those tweets aren’t “negative”.
Okay there Skippy….
I was gone for 6-months like 10-years ago … for speaking the truth about something…move on lol!
I'd say that's a pretty big miss actually.
One neutral court tourney around Thanksgiving would solve that problem.
When we scheduled Seton Hall did anyone expect they would be this bad this year
He also thought Caleb was a horrible player so shows his bball knowledge
Dude we scheduled them years ago. Not one person would know if they would be good or bad this year.
If Caleb wasn’t so tired all the time who knows he could’ve been the best offensive player in the conference …
Not the best but certainly would put up better numbers. So are you still claiming that Montez Mathis was deserving of all of Caleb’s minutes years ago.
I still stand by Montez should’ve continued to start along with JY like he did when we were ranked. Not really on topic though.
