Rutgers vs Purdue / Game Thread

[RUJMM78]

This second half is following the same scenario as the Minnesota game where the opponent goes on a scoring spurt and Rutgers shoots bricks.54-37 Purdue.

 

[bac2therac]

the defensive effort is flat out embarrassing

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

No effort on D. Just pathetic.

 

[koleszar]

Wow we're really trying to put the exclamation point on the word Suck.

 

[Scangg]

When McConnell is healthy he should be a ton of minutes at the point

 

[G- RUnit]

We sadly look really bad. Bummed.

 

[RUJMM78]

Rutgers outscored 18-7 in the second half.

 

[Bob Chaewsky_rivals]

If we are going to be a quality P5 team Baker can't be the PG.

 

[Mikemarc]

We sadly look really bad. Bummed.

We are really bad.

Sadly. Again.

 

[MCKnight]

Baker trying to do too much

 

[RUONTHERISE]

Can't believe refs are favoring Purdue. 6 calls against Purdue this half and just 1 on rutgers. These refs are unbelievable.

 

[MCKnight]

Paul can’t get here soon enough, will start and play 30 minutes from day 1. Without a True PG you have no chance in this league

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

I think they shoot threes at a higher percentage than we shoot layups and foul shots.

 

[Jim_from_RU]

Someone ought to stick a fist in Cline’s face.

 

[Scangg]

Great pass by McConnell. He should be playing a ton of minutes

 

[koleszar]

We hit the bottom of the rim on a free throw. You have to be sh*tting me.

 

[soundcrib]

Peter Kiss.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

kiss is just awful.

 

[RUTrack94]

Just checked ... ouch again ... can we just forfeit ... something like 1-68 on the road in B1G play (just kidding, but why bother watching unless at home or a neutral court)

 

[shields]

Kiss stinks.

 

[Scangg]

Johnson with a really good intentional FT miss back to back attempts. Kiss throwing the laziest pass ever

 

[bac2therac]

Unwatchable

unfortunatley while we watch the freshmen progress..mainly Mathis....the other schools around the league are not just waiting around getting worse....so the issue becomes how do we get better compared to those teams..its going to be an uphill battle

Someone ought to stick a fist in Cline’s face.

Is that what you do to all the Trump supporters?

 

[Caliknight]

Is that what you do to all the Trump supporters?

Dude's angry.

 

[80RU]

They are 52% from three, we are 38% from the paint. Johnson seems like he keeps on anticipating contact.

 

[RUJMM78]

Its beyond embarrassing watching games like this because Rutgers has no answers on offense while the opponent scores with ease.Far too many complementary type players on the Rutgers team and no go to scorers.

 

[RU848789]

When McConnell is healthy he should be a ton of minutes at the point

Sorry, he's improved, but he wouldn't see the floor for any other B1G team. Baker would be a sub and nobody else on our team would see significant minutes, other than Eugene. Doorson, Mathis and Harper would be 8/9 guys at best. That's the problem - we're just not that good.

 

[bac2therac]

RU was 11-22 in the first half and now 2-13 in the 2nd

 

[Scangg]

"this game is by no means over" loll

 

[BOCA93]

Everything starts with the guards. We literally can’t bring the ball up the court. Hunter is harassing the f$&@ out of Baker and McConnell and there’s no answer

 

[koleszar]

Did he just say, "this game is by no means over". [roll] WTF is the announcer watching?

 

[MadRU]

At least Seton Hall lost

 

[Degaz-RU]

It’s just unbelievable how much offensive talent Purdue has.

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Sorry, he's improved, but he wouldn't see the floor for any other B1G team. Baker would be a sub and nobody else on our team would see significant minutes, other than Eugene. Doorson, Mathis and Harper would be 8/9 guys at best. That's the problem - we're just not that good.

Doorson would not play on any other B1G team and neither would Kiss or Thiam.

[DHajekRC84]

Just once. JUST FREAKING ONCE I want to see Pike get in one his players face over this crap.

 

[RU848789]

Is Thiam 0 for 2019?

 

[bac2therac]

Sorry, he's improved, but he wouldn't see the floor for any other B1G team. Baker would be a sub and nobody else on our team would see significant minutes, other than Eugene. Doorson, Mathis and Harper would be 8/9 guys at best. That's the problem - we're just not that good.

bingo...we like what we see from McConnell but if this who are putting are hopes in for the future than Pike will not make it to year 7. We need significant upgrades to get where we need to be...not talking about winning a few games here and there. I mean winning 10 or 11 league games to make the NCAA tourney

65-39 "This games not over yet" -Announcer

yeah, that cracked me up - 25-7 run and we might make that up, lol...

 

[soundcrib]

Thiam and kiss should sit next to Joey downes for the rest of the year
