Rutgers Basketball: Big Picture Optimism

August is upon us and we are two long months away from the start of practice for the upcoming season. The past three seasons have been from embarrassing with the Mike Rice era to frustrating and little hope since. However, as Eddie Jordan enters his third season as head coach, several factors are starting to turn in the right direction. Facility upgrades are planned for the basketball program. The coaching staff was very busy recruiting in July, putting more offers out to highly rated players than we have ever had. While this season will be challenging, Eddie finally has players on the roster to fit his preferred style of play and it's clear he has begun to execute his long term plan.
