Touissant was the X factor

His quickness, defense, hustle, quick step and finishes at the rim was the difference in us winning and losing this game.

After Bakari made two stupid plays at the end I thought we were toast. Thankfully everyone stepped up and Connor made CRUCIAL free throws.

Two of the biggest plays of the game was: 1) CJ tapping our missed free throw off the Rutgers player that went out of bounds and 2) Wieskamp's last 3 pointer.

Good stuff....agree on all of it. Joe T is capable of playing that well and better...it really is just a matter of consistency. I think that the vast majority of players only get that through experience and maturity...how fast he can mature will be a big big deal. That game he had tonight...should, and I think will, be just an average game for him. He is capable of much more and I can't wait.

JoeT is the type of guard (I.e. loaded with fast twitch muscles) that a lot of fans had been calling for over the years. Glad we finally got the quickest guard in B1G on our team. He may not ever be a 3pt shooter, but he can bring that defense every game.

Joe T. Is the player other teams always seem to have and we always wish we had.
