Worrying about Rutgers men’s basketball is different this time

I’m worried about the Rutgers men’s basketball team.

This is nothing new for me or any other longtime fan. This program has brought plenty of heartache, embarrassment and losing over the years to lead to diagnosed anxiety at a minimum. However, the Steve Pikiell era has marked steady improvement and last season produced the most regular season wins in 37 years. The program is officially on the rise.

We all know how things ended in March, both with tremendous hope for the future and a bittersweet taste due to the 29 year NCAA drought continuing.
