We are finally here hoops fans, as the Rutgers men’s basketball team tips off the 2019-2020 season on Thursday night at home against Bryant. Steve Pikiell’s fourth season at the helm brings great expectations. Ending a fourteen year period without a winning record and postseason appearance hopefully comes to end this coming March.
Rutgers was on the cusp of doing so last season, but a young team with a 14-14 record hit a wall and lost the last three games of the season. The half glass full view is that type of disappointment can benefit this team this season.
