Baylor recently added former NBA Draft pick James Nnaji to its roster, leading to college basketball coaches around the country exploring ways to improve their team.
That includes [Rutgers](https://www.pennlive.com/topic/rutgers/index.html) coach Steve Pikiell, who said Monday night that he is absolutely looking to add a player in the middle of the season.
"You have to," [Pikiell said](https://x.com/TheFieldOf68/status/2006006489073545361?s=20) when asked if he is looking to add a player to his team mid year. “Whoever’s out there, you try to pursue. It’s a weird world.”
The coaching veteran added that he is looking into any lead he gets as far as a potential addition.
He even said, perhaps somewhat tongue-in-cheek, that he is looking to add a player who is in his mid-30s.
“I’d like to get a 36-year-old with four kids hungry for a job. I’d like to get one of those guys. We’ll see if one of those guys is available,” Steve Pikiell continued.
“You’ve got to pursue any lead that you have on anybody and then go through all the steps to try to make it happen. It’s very complex.”
Pikiell is in his 10th season as the head coach at Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights are currently 7-6 (0-2) and are coming off of a 65-50 win over Delaware State.
