Player interviews

Halldan1
These are all quotes so I will not use quotation marks

Jacine Toumi

I am a versatile player. I can dribble and shoot. I play multiple positions. I have a high motor. My motor never stops. I can't tell you how excited I am for the year. Seton Hall fans are going to love us.


Basketball has no positions now. Whatever coach wants me to do I will. Coach lets me do everything. If I get a rebound he lets me push it down court. He lets me play free. I would say I am more a forward. I was about 6-2 four years ago and I was a point guard and then one summer I got much taller so that's why I am 6-10 and can handle the ball.


I like to take fadeaways. It was something I worked on all summer. I like to fashion my game after Mamu. I know a lot of players tell me we have similarities me and him. I like players who are really good in the mid post so that is something I work on.


Unfortunately he was my last interview and the staff called him back to the locker room.

Schiano will some day be the biggest state of NJ Pensioner regardless of what he ends up achieving at Rutgers.

If I remember correctly, even if they counted his original hire, he began his time at Rutgers after state university employees stopped being eligible for PERS, the public employees' retirement system. I think the cutoff was anyone hired after 6/30/00, and he was hired that December.

So at least there's that.

He will probably wind up being a big buyout for the next AD at some point, however.

We’re probably properly ranked at this point, I just don’t like that he releases a metrics-based formula before games are played. I probably wouldn’t even mind a starting point if it was embedded and first metrics released 12/1.

Is that the science of today, men can't get pregnant? Just confirming as I can't keep up with this issue. But I was once a fetus, not sure how you view your life, but I wouldn't have wanted my mother to end it there for me. Curious if we can get a simple majority of people who wish their mother's ended their life there.

That's idiotic as saying the consequences of putting your hand on a hot stove is an ice pack.

The problem with preseason KenPom is it assigns a number to something that is metrics based. We’ve seen it takes a lot to move numbers through the year.

Everyone should start 0.000. Arbitrarily assigning a metrics rank with no metrics is stupid.

They make you believe if you're against abortion you're against women's rights. 1% of abortions are from rape and 0.5% are from incest.

Indeed, abortions because of rape and incest are very rare. Almost as rare as abortions after 21 weeks of gestational age, speaking of blowing things out of proportion.

I know you don’t share their belief, nor can you get pregnant… but they see the potential consequence of their action is an abortion. The men involved largely share that belief as well.

Agreed. Social media blows up all of the crazy ones, so when you see a handful of people going overboard, it makes it seem like it’s happening everywhere.

It’s not a huge issue at all. Dems just can’t offend anyone ever so they can’t say where the line should be drawn over what should be acceptable… so republicans know they are winning that issue based on public perception so they blow it up.

It happens on both sides. Social media makes it sound like all conservatives are right wing nut jobs. Abortion is blown up in the same manner. They make you believe if you're against abortion you're against women's rights. 1% of abortions are from rape and 0.5% are from incest. 98.5% are from people doing what they want and not wanting the consequences of their actions. But it get's blown up that if you're against it, women everywhere have no control over their body. Obesity wouldn't be a thing if we could all put whatever we want in our bodies and have no consequences for it.
