Episode 91: Steve Pikiell

EP. 91 "The Sellout Streak" (Steve Pikiell)

The Scarlet Spotlight is excited to be joined by Rutgers men's basketball head coach Steve Pikiell for Episode 91 of the podcast. The sixth-year head coach looked back at the 2021 NCAA Tournament, which broke RU's 30-year drought. Pikiell also commented on roster turnover, previewed his full suite of newcomers and returnees, and covered the Geo Baker and Ron Harper Jr. NBA Draft processes. He also discussed his out-of-conference scheduling philosophy, the prospect of a full RAC in 2021-2022, player development, rotations, coaching staff changes and preparing for adversity in a new season. After the interview, Danny and Jon talk about Rutgers football's win at Syracuse to improve to 2-0, preview the Delaware game and touch on Greg Schiano's press conference comments. They also recap the week in RU Athletics, including women's soccer, men's soccer, women's volleyball, field hockey and more.
