Rutgers postgame

Yeah, tell me he's checked out. This is a undermanned team that is trying its collective asses off. I'm so happy for them that they get paid back with a W tonight.
 
Fran seems to have Pickiell and Mike Woodson figured out, for whatever that's worth.

Something he did or said at halftime clicked. Iowa was actually the aggressor on both ends of the floor down the stretch.

Granted I don't think Rutgers is all that good this yr. They have a couple stud freshman but that's about it. They got hot for awhile but couldn't sustain it and Hawks just wanted it more. We out rebounded them for peats sake. How many times have we out rebounded anyone all yr let alone on the road? Doing that along with making FTs and shooting 50% from the field will win you road games in this league. If you play just a little bit of defense anyway and tonight in the 2nd half they did that.

Happy for the players those dudes have had a rough month or so. They deserved to have a happy locker room after that one and flight home. Fran too. I know I've been amongst the he's checked out crowd. I meant that from the overall picture perspective. He's never lost the locker room or players it doesn't seem like. Hell he's been landing some stud recruits so you can't do that while being totally 'checked out' either.

Big picture this game doesn't change anything to me. But I'm happy the fellas got a W.
