There have been a lot of roster changes for the Rutgers men’s basketball program since Steve Pikiell took over in April. With the graduation of Greg Lewis, Omari Grier, and Bishop Daniels, as well as the transfers of D.J. Foreman and Justin Goode, Rutgers had just seven scholarship players remaining after the season. After inheriting a team with just over half of the full amount of scholarships filled, Pikiell and his coaching staff have made five roster additions since.
The first recruiting class of Pikiell’s regime includes incoming freshman Issa Thiam, Matt Bullock and Eugene Omoruyi, as well as JUCO transfer Candido Sa and graduate transfer C.
