He knew what he was getting into. Rutgers is a dumpster fire in every major sport. They're in a power conference with power conference money yet look lost many years in many sports. He'll at least make them respectable.
We aren’t talking about losses to Big10 teams, but about losses to mediocre teams from a mediocre conference. These losses are inexcusable, especially at home. No pass for Coach Pikiell on these losses. His game day strategy is rearing it’s ugly head.
If it wasn’t for Warney not listening to the coaching in the 2nd half against Vermont and just taking over the game, Pikiell would have 0 NCAA appearances.
The best thing about Pikiell is that he cared about the basketball careers of his players after they graduated from Stony Brook!
