Carino: Bad news for Rutgers men's hoops

[Halldan1]

This was similar to what happened many years ago to Mark Bryant who coincidentally missed the first game (an NIT clash) of the year at Rutgers.

Forgot who we played.

Why on Earth is Rutgers playing Rutgers-Newark? You are telling me they couldn't find another lower D1 team to play. And yes if Seton Hall did this they would get absolutely crucified and rightfully so.

Smack in the face to your paying customers. You put out a garbage product and then force feed this slop to the season ticket holders. Terrible.

Will they even draw 2,000 people at the RAC for that game?

Didn't we play Kean in the reg season?

At least Rutgers-Newark is a team Rutgers (Big Ten) might be able to beat.

We did play Caldwell a few years back.

That was an exhibition, not a season opener.

nope, I am referring to Gonzo's first year, 2006, when we played Caldwell at the CAA, followed by a loss to FDU

 

[Fzacsattac]

At least Caldwell is a Div II school.....

We have no room to criticize with some of below cupcakes we've had our schedule over the years to fatten up our wins. Everyone is guilty of this, not just Rutgers.

Nope. Season opener in 2006-07.

It stinks for the fans when players get suspended. They purchase season tickets year after year, they donate to the school, and when the season finally starts the player they've been waiting to see is riding the bench.

We live in the largest of glass houses. Don't throw any rocks.

 

[Muggsy Blue]

Donations to your college shouldn't be based on who's sitting on the bench. I would hope that you would be donating to Seton Hall because of the fine education you received,

Maybe they are hoping to use it as a tryout to get into the NJAC! They certainly don't belong in the Big Ten!

Oh, yes now I remember. You have a good memory!
