Let's start by acknowledging that Rutgers was extremely shorthanded tonight, as they had just six scholarship players for this game. Senior captain Greg Lewis was declared out about an hour before tip-off. He has been playing hurt for a long time and it looks like his knees finally gave out. No word on his status moving forward. We know centers Ibrahima Diallo and Shaq Doorson have been out the majority of the season. Deshawn Freeman is a double whammy, out for the season due to injury and suspended indefinitely for "failure to meet team responsibilities". The fact that all four of them are frontcourt players makes it seem like a cruel joke with no punchline.
