They should have moved on from C. years ago.

We make fun of Rutgers now. Just be prepared because they will becoming for one of our assistant coaches. One thing they have is $$$$$$

I wouldn't coach there for all the money in the world. Easy for me to say since I know nothing about coaching.

And I was under the impression they were hurting for money.

Sad. I think she should step down from tarnishing her legacy at this point.

Well with their new B1G contract they'll be raking in at least $40M/year from TV, not that anyone really wants to watch them, but that seems like a pretty good cash flow to me!

My information is admittedly a year or two old, but at that time there was plenty of money for athletics and cuts in the library budget. Needless to say, there was faculty grumbling. As the song goes, something's got to give.

How did it happen? C. Vivian Stringer was perhaps the most challenging coach to Coach Geno for years. She produced some of the finest talent in the WNBA.

What happened?

I thought that didn't kick in for a while? Maybe "a while" is up. I read some article where they were siphoning a lot of money to the hospital complex (around the state).

Ah. Took me a second.

Maybe eventually. But they've got lots of budget holes to plug first.

CVS is paid well though, so that salary alone would be a nice enticement .

Well played, sir

I think Holly got swindled at the diamond exchange

 

[Vowelguy]

At 971, thought for sure CVS would pass 1000 wins next year. That is getting called into question,
Meanwhile Geno, just 12 games back, looks certain to move ahead of her this year.

Rutgers sports have been an almost constant embarrassment to the citizens of our fair state for quite a while now...........women's basketball has been one of the rare exceptions although they too have trailed off over the past few years.........Rutgers is also one of, if not the most expensive state colleges in the country.............it's ranked as a pretty good school (New Brunswick) but not up to CT or MD standards which is surprising based on the high quality of the students applying these days..............my kid for one, has no interest in staying in state to earn her degree...........................

Here's an article on the Rutgers WBB debacle per Raul:

C. Vivian Stringer on winless Rutgers: 'We don't have any fighters'

 

[UcMiami]

When we worry about recruiting to Uconn out in cow country and where freshmen rarely start and the preference is a team game where star players sublimate their skills to team goals, and then look at the Rutgers recruiting pitch: lovely New Brunswick, NJ variously known as the black hole of the New Jersey, or the armpit of humanity, where they haven't had a team average 70+ points since Hoover was president, and the coach is hailed as a defensive genius, who has only occasionally noticed that her team is supposed to do something on the other end of the court - recruiting to Uconn doesn't look that tough!
