Rutgers ...

Looks like it'll be the Scarlett Knights Thursday, unless both Northwestern beats Rutgers and Penn State beats Ohio State today. If that happens - two upsets - then Purdue would play PSU.

We get Rutgers which is really struggling. Will be sad if we don't beat them, but I do not think this team can beat OSU. Of course would have said the same last year. I predict we split these games and go to the NIT. But I hope, even if we split, we still go to the Big Dance. Hard to judge. Some great road wins vs ranked teams but then some real eggs like home losses to Ind and MSu. Had we won our Senior game we would prob be an NCAA lock, but we didn't and now I think we are on the other side of the bubble. As I have said repeatedly though, the NIT might be good for a young team. We should not be a young team next year.

If Cooper comes back, I think we would have a decent chance against OSU; but I am afraid there is more than meets the eye with Cooper!!

Yes the lack of info is concerning. Hoping it works out. That would be a big loss for the program next year too. She is our best defender. Those are not easy to find.
