The Lens

During my childhood, when my family visited relatives “across the river,” in Bayou Plaquemine, Bayou Goula, Caddo, the Pointe, and White Castle, my siblings and I would sometimes race up and down the levees, some distance away from the cows grazing there. At the summit of the hill, you could see the Mississippi River waters through stands of trees and brush. It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.

There is quite the lengthy history when it comes to men’s college basketball for the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. The school has had a men’s basketball team now for well over a century. While there were a lot of lean years recently as they did not reach the NCAA Tournament each year from 1992-2020, things have been improving. They reached the tournament in back-to-back years in 2021 and 2022, reaching the second round in the former. Now the RAC’s excitement level is near all-time highs as Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey will be joining the Scarlet Knights in 2024-25. While many expect them to be one-and-done players before entering the NBA, they are the type of high school prospects that Rutgers is not used to landing.
