I am very curious to see what the minutes distribution will look like because clearly the Center position is sorted out. But Pikiell has such a log jam of wings and combo guards now and only 1 real point guard on the roster. Slightly clunky roster construction but

Lastly, I think Rasheed Jones is talented and a good signing for Rutgers. Haven't had the time for an in-depth scout, but love his peripheral numbers. That said, unless Lino Mark takes a massive step up my worries for this team have not changed. They need a quality point guard

Also, as many have noted, the NCAA Tournament's expansion is a disgustingly blatant cash grab that ruins the integrity of the tournament. That said, if Rutgers can spring an upset in Vegas next year, they could be in play for one of those potential play-in spots👀

Beating up on what has become a joke of a Syracuse basketball program is always fun, right @jwkasdan

Is Rutgers having Syracuse on the schedule the smartest move from a NET perspective (high major team that could be Q3)? I don't know, but I still love the schedule addition because it gives me an out-of-conference game I am both excited for and will go to.

@CraigHelfgott Def easy no doubt you said easiest path and that's just objectively not true. 2013 Heat, 70s Bucks prob 1999 Spurs. Amongst others all had easier paths

Can only play who is in front of you, so no fault of the Knicks.. but this has gotta be the easiest path to the Finals in a long time unless I’m missing another obvious one

@CraigHelfgott Off the top of my head from the last 3 years lol . Clearly victim of their success before the series everyone was predicting Knicks in 7 for those series but hindsight is 20/20

@CraigHelfgott @RutgersOn3 That’s what makes it more painful. It was there for the taking. That Illinois game still enrages me one of the stupidest coaching decisions I have ever seen

@EllisVGordon @RutgersOn3 And now that I'm on my rant, if we didn't choke away the Illinois game in '24 & then Penn State in '25.. man would that 14-11 look a hell of a lot better and be remembered a whole lot differently.

Just watched the Athan Kaliakmanis every-throw cut-up that @RutgersOn3 made (thank you for that), and all I could think about was how good the offense was and how a historically bad defense really killed what could have been a good Rutgers team.
