I''m back after a month break to discuss the positives of Rutgers hiring William Tate IV as its new President, the importance of getting the AD hire right, why this past year was so disappointing for fans, why changing perception with a better reality is a must and much more.

The Scarlet Knights added an intriguing 6'8" international wing Denis Badalau who played in the top Italian pro league and for the Romanian national team. In what is expected to be the last scholarship player taken for next season, some initial thoughts on how the roster was built, strengths and weaknesses, upside as well as concerns for Steve Pikiell's new team.#rutgersbasketball

David Anderson returns as we discuss our assessment of the Scarlet Knights following spring game in a fact or fiction format. Topics include several key positions, players and the big picture outlook for this program.#rutgersfootball

Steve Pikiell landed a much needed three-point shooter in 6'6" Euro Wing Harun Zrno. The former Indiana commit recently visited Villanova and Miami while also being recruited by Wisconsin, Creighton and Virginia. The roster is taking shape with one major spot still to fill. A full discussion on Zrno and the potential rotation that will certainly rely on freshmen but will be a team that got older at the same time.#rutgersbasketball

Aaron is back with thoughts on many Rutgers topics:- Basketball landing a big man as well as the current state of the roster plus what is still needed.- The biggest takeaway from the Spring Game was AJ Surace is developing as we all hoped.- Football transfer news in and out with Mo Toure a big loss regardless of health.- Men's lacrosse advances in Big Ten Tournament.- Chloe Timberg defends her Penn Relays Title.- Rutgers continues to be without a President, Athletic Director, General Counsel & hoops GM with May approaching which is deeply concerning for multiple reason. #rutgersbasketball #rutgersfootball #rutgersscarletknights

With Spring practice more than halfway complete, David Anderson returns to discuss with Aaron the five things that the Scarlet Knights need to have answers for in order to have a successful 2025 season. #rutgersfootball

Roster construction is critical for Steve Pikiell to move the program forward next season. While there is logic and reason to adding GW transfer wing Darren Buchanan Jr. earlier this week, building a backcourt with three smaller guards with two who are inefficient offensively raises questions as to what the strategy is this offseason. We cover both pickups, concerns with the staff dynamics and why not having a GM is an issue.#rutgersbasketball

Portal season is here and I give some thoughts on the type of player Rutgers targets this offseason. There are many traits that are more important and track better than the name of the school or conference that players come from.#rutgersbasketball

A full breakdown following the departures of Lathan Sommerville, Jeremiah Williams and Jordan Derkack, how much money the program has to work with, the long term concerns for Rutgers, what will Pikiell's strategy be and instability within the university continues.#rutgersbasketball

A rambling discussion on the massive disappointment that was the 2024-2025 season, the missteps of Steve Pikiell, NIL, a search for renewed identity, the need for a modern offensive approach and the importance of change as a critical offseason begins.#rutgersbasketball
