that would have happened already, we were not doing anything much on defense
Yeah, really. You’re a guy watching a basketball game, not a prophet. Shots go in, shots roll out. Yeah, I was at the game. ANYTHING could have happened in OT..
Disagree for the most part most of those 3’s were highly contested and you can’t guard against a banked in 3
Defense was terrible…too many guys blowing by people and have them gteat looks at the basket.
Hyatt looked asleep out there YET again for the limited minutes he played on defense. PM was getting blown by. Simpson was getting screened and not fighting over them

The B1G overall doesnt have great athletes so we can get away with it in the regular season. The b1g is basically the last league on earth that relies on bigs and big bulky guards as opposed to speed, tempo and athleticism.
the winning shot in regulation, what do we call that with Cliff
Problem with NIT is players don't care and effort isn't same.
We are not good as the favorite and toss in playing mid major in NIT and you have a recipe for poor defense and lack of passion. That spells probable loss when its the super bowl for the opponent.
Their center averaging 3points a game goes off against Cliff for double digits.
Why can so few acknowledge this? We had a weak effort on defense and on the boards aside from Caleb ans Spencer. Which sadly has been the case for alot of the year. And people wonder why Mag was such a huge loss? Check out that young man's relentless hustle and it's pretty obvious what happened.
6th loss at the RAC
now 4 in a row.....did Pike lose 4 in a row his first year
RU lost 5 in a row back in Pikes first season where they lost 8 games at the rac....4 game rac losing streak heading to next year and 6 rac losses in year 7
I dont know, people are so in awe of Hofstra making great shots, i get they did, but not all of them were, most in fact were wide open, they go into the seams or got right to the hoop in the first half. RU did nothing to make them uncomfortable..where was the rac home court advantage, the fans were frenzied standing and cheering on every play and every play the same defensive again and again and again, no surprise everything was going in. RU was literally doing nothing to disrupt their offense
Pikes strategy was the press and that worked at times, but it appears he had not one other counter
The put back to tie in regulation we had 4 guys around the basket. Cliff jumped and perfectly tipped it over Derek to the Hofstra guy. Derek was right there for the rebound if Cliff didn’t touch it. If Cliff grabs it or misses it entirely we get the rebound. The slight tip just over Derek was the only possible outcome where the Hofstra guy gets it.
There were two opportunities for Cam to get game winning shots, in regulation & in overtime..
instead of a full court pass that went out of bounds, it should have been one or two quick passes, with screen for open Cam shot.
In OT, yes kick it out to Cam, the way Hofstra was shooting, odds were against winning in 2nd OT
