The start of every season brings excitement and hope that better results will occur, but for the first time in a long time for Rutgers basketball, there is reason to really believe that the program is headed in the right direction. Head coach Steve Pikiell enters his second season at the helm and as I covered in detail in this state of the program overview, he has made many positive changes in a short period of time.
