That���s a big get for RU to land Jayden Elijah! A 6-7 OL with huge upside. Picked RU over offers from FSU, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, MSU, Nebraska and more! Lets goooo
I’d be lying if I ever thought that we would see Rutgers Basketball with 5 star commits in back to back classes like we have now. What Coach Pikiell has done so far has been nothing short of a miracle and better than I could’ve dreamed.

Time to reflect:
No matter what happened back on Thursday, the Seniors and Coach deserve a raucous, welcoming and passionate crowd and send off on Senior Day.
If you’re going to go and boo anyone on senior day, don’t go to the game.
That is all. Beat the Wildcats. 🪓🛡️
Lol Rutgers owns the state of Indiana now. Just annex it to the campus. 4 straight wins against Purdue MBB, 2-0 in Football, 4 straight wins against Indiana MBB, and beat Indiana FB on the road earlier this year.
Congratulations to Kyle Monangai for the first 1,000+ yard rushing season for RU since 2012, and locking up the regular season 2023 big ten rushing title with 1,099 yards on the ground!
Clutch win over OSU, Bailey commitment, likely AP Poll ranking today, and Winovich’s commitment have RU nation on a high we haven’t seen in a while! Love it!! Best fan base in the country. 🪓🛡️⚔️❤️
Say whatever you want about GS about where the rebuild is at,but:
There’s no question how much he means to RU, and there’s no question of how much RU means to him. It’s different. Almost tangible.
Proud of R Guys on the B1G W yesterday.
Now:

Despite how this season ended, RU has gotta be an intriguing destination for kids in the portal. Recent success, passionate fans, elite homecourt environment, facilities, solid recruits incoming.

to bring in some guys! ❤️
Y’all see the difference here?

@GregSchiano
: I want to coach you. I’ll be here for you no matter what, even if you choose not to play at RU. I want you to make the best decision for you.
Penn State assistant coach when a prospect doesn’t commit to their school:
This is beyond awesome. Look at how his future teammates (and some players that won’t be on the team when he comes) embrace him like family. Rutgers could not ask for a better man and better leader than Steve Pikiell. Take that to the bank.
I’m with Jeff, Steve and Greg. What Schiano is demanding is for our own good because he’s seen what it takes to recruit and compete at an elite level. Yes the sticker shock will be there, but we’re at a fork in the road? Do we play it safe? Or Do we show that we’re all in? I’m in
Bro doesn’t know shit. Greg would have to go like 0-12 to 3-9 for his seat to be lukewarm. RU is not going to show him the door for almost any reason, for better or worse.
4-star RB Antwan Raymond has committed to RU! And will he reclassifying to 2024 to join the team this summer! A big get over Miami, WVU, South Carolina, USF and more!
They won’t rank RU because it would be a ludicrous look to say “yeah, the
#23
team (for example) is just on the bubble now.” RU definitely one of the hottest teams right now, and we’ve just gotta keep it going at home Wednesday!
Wishing Gavin all the best on his journey. Said yes to RU when few would, QB’d our first bowl game win in a while, and seems like just a good kid. Good luck, rooting for him!
Thank you for everything,
@caleb_mcco
! I’m sure this season did not end how you imagined, but RU Nation is endlessly proud of you and how you’ve changed the program for the better. All love CM!
Really gotta hand it to the MBB staff. In 2024 especially, it seeems truly like whoever they set their eyes on and give a full court press to, they’re landing. 👀
Good to know his Indiana visit is in the past hopefully, and RU will get another crack before the end. Crazy how much he looks like Ron did minus the hair lol
BREAKING: 6’10 Wake Forest forward Andrew Carr plans to enter the transfer portal, per Cam Lemons.
Averaged 13.5 points and 6.8 rebounds as a senior. Previously played for Delaware.

It’s a tradition that’s been building since Coach walked the Turnpike to take the job. It started small but now the entire student base waits to greet the team.
Enjoy the journey 📈📈📈
I’m not the biggest fan of Izzo, but there’s not denying he’s a legend and has always been forthcoming in his praise of Pikiell and RU and the build over the years
A F.A.M.I.L.Y affair at RU as they land twin brothers Tyclean and Tycoolhill Luman out of Florida! Both 3 star DEs! Nice offer lists for both. Again, Schiano quietly putting together a very quality ‘24 class.
Damn, I’m heartbroken for the guys and especially Caleb. Injuries happen, and it’s unfortunate that one derailed our season for a long stretch. Always riding with this team - bright futures ahead!
I’ll take my lumps. I made a few tweets in the heat of moments in this game that I shouldn’t. Games aren’t over until the clock hits 0:00. Great win boys!!
Prob the most underrated play of the day for Gavin. Kept his poise, eyes down field while escaping pressure, and delivered a bullet on target right to Dremel! Was even better that it was a 4th down conversion leading to a TD!
Whether or not I believed Gavin was better than Simon (I did), I’m glad this decision was made early and GS not playing the ‘comp advantage’ card or dragging it out. Now Gavin can receive the first team snaps with surrounding personnel and not have to flip flop. Let’s ride.
Welcome home, Kaylib! RU grabs a dynamic speedy Florida DB with a lot of high level offers! Visited UF multiple times and will be cancelling his Michigan official, per RU Rivals
So unbelievably happy and proud of RU nation! Everyone who pitched in, picked up the phone, wrote messages and kept the hope alive throughout these past couple of weeks! Looking forward to brighter days ahead! Now we need to do our jobs while Coach does his:
Bring that B1G stat line to the RAC! Stay home with RU Cliff! You get you to the league, and Coach Pikiell will definitely help! Best engineering school out of your Top schools, as well. 2 engineering big men for RU with you and Myles engineering the rise of RU Basketball!
