RU is such a joke. Wish I could take the bus from class to class. NJ fall back college.
Relax. Seton Hall is basically open admissions man. Call Rutgers a fall back college when you crack the top 125 in the US News rankings.

No thk. I’m rolling in cream as a grad from the Hall. Tell Ghetto clydes n the fat back trucks serving grease
Yeah nobody who ever went to Rutgers got a job.
USNWR says RU grads make more than SHU grads but I'm sure Uncle Hector is right and not them
Never sad that cuz. Just telling u n dirty jerz I’m a grad of Hall n rolling. Take it how u like. Tell the clown show u think u roll with
Sorry I Don’t google junk or on social clown media like cats wives telling each other’s they have life’s n post garbage
30 decades- wow I don’t think basketball was invented 300 years ago!
This is the issue when RU starts rolling off wins. They come here and start trash talking and starting threads about themselves. The worst was when Mike Rice had that great recruiting class and the entire summer they were over here talking about being a top 10 team that season. And to a lesser extent when they won 2 games in the Big tourney.
I always root for RU when I tune in , but part of me knows how annoying they will be on this board all summer if the make the tourney.

My guy is Rice. Legit guy. Never should have left BOBBY Mo but happy for my guy Toole. Rutgers a dead end job. Joke
Ru is without a doubt a top 25 team at home. But with a single road win against Nebraska (Kenpom 160) they are still to be viewed as pretenders

Lotta grown men on both boards that expend an insane amount of energy just to be shitty to other grown men that happen to be fans of a team other than their own. It's pathetic. Especially when instead we can all unite in snark over another true villain of the sport like say...Duke.
There are plenty of players for both teams. Both teams being good is optimal. It's good for area basketball and will increase media exposure for both. Esp since the Knicks stink.
There are so many more RU alum because of the relative size and purposes of the 2 Universities. It must be annoying to SHU grad/fans to always be outnumbered even though SHU has had much more success.
The only time it can be measured has been games at the Continental and now Prudential Center. There's been much debate, but I don't think there's ever been more than 1/3 of the crowd rooting for ru. If they make a run this year, I expect the demand for tickets at the Rock to increase, and I would hope and expect that SHU will make if difficult for ru fans to get their hands on tickets, much as they did for the game at the RAC this year.
Back "on" topic, I took a look at the remaining ru schedule for the season, and I've been reading that fans are harassing Carino to rank rutgers, and they are trying to calculate how many wins gets them "in." I have to tell you, I don't see more than 5 wins left on that schedule for them. I think they beat Indiana, Minnesota at the RAC, Nebraska again, and maybe 2 other RAC games. OK, so 6 maybe. And they have 11 currently -- Caldwell doesn't count. Even an 18 or 19 win ru team with that shabby OOC is probably NIT bound.
If I'm wrong, and I may well be, they will have to win a couple of games against the U of M's, Sparty at home, Purdue. If they make it, I will be impressed.

So many more alumni yet so many less fans! Seton Hall’s attendance blows away anything Rutgers attracts!
Their next game is really important one. Chance to beat a decent team on the road and show they are legit. They should knock into the top 25 if they can pull that one off. After that they have another 5 winnable games in a row. They need to do really well in that stretch (4-2 at minimum) since their Feb/March is fairly brutal.
Interesting game with Illinois. A couple of teams that have some parallels in terms of playing well and a fan base hungry for success. Illini are 9-1 at home with some good wins.
I am a huge Rutgers believer this year, but man do their fans NEVER learn. Every year the bottom falls completely out, and every year they get right back on the horse talking sh**. What has to happen to wear these guys down?
Seriously? A lot of Rurgers fans are the most negative, beaten down, fans you'll ever see. This must just be the guys that come here.
We beat SHU
Having bragging rights for a year
Already makes this a successful season . By the way KenPom predicts
RU to win next 6 at home which would
Give them 9 Big 10 wins
Win 1 more and they are in
10-10 in Best League in Country gets

I bet you couldn’t make it 4 years in a row if you were in Big 10 vs a watered
Down Big East
Seton hall was 6-2 vs Big Ten teams over that 4 year period
And I believe 15-5 vs all basketball 6 conferences during that time. (Not including tournament games).
It's not a lock that 10-10 the way you describe it gets RU in. Almost all home wins against the middle of the pack or worst of the league. 18-12 (before B10 tournament) and potentially no quality road wins is no sure thing. The SHU and PSU wins should play well with the selection committee but sweeping the likes Northwestern and Nebraska won't impress anyone.
Ask NC State how well a weak OOC and .500 ACC record worked out for them last year.
Threads like this are great for 1 purpose...
To find the new RU trolls who come here and then immediately put them on "ignore".... I think my number (this this and previous threads) is up to 12 ignored RU trolls who have posted in this thread alone. 2 of them I have let slide so far because they actually seem to be posters. Let's see how long that lasts.
It's good to have a culling every once in a while. Thanks OP.

Sweeping Northwestern and Nebraska would get us to 20 wins and another road win. Your math is off
