Over the last 4 years? True. But that's a low bar.Basically every Big Ten lacrosse game involving Rutgers has been more compelling and exciting than Big Ten football games involving Rutgers going back four years.

Like men's rowing. Sorry everyone has their favorite. But for football, Schiano, and Mulcahy your lacrosse team and all other olympic sports would be be in the backwater of the American Conference with next to no money. I support the team I'm interested in . . . football. And in this day and age of "no subsidy," sports that are or have the potential to be self-supporting or god forbid make a profit, should get the lion's share of institutional support. When lacrosse can do this I'll change my mind. Until this money should go to football. When football makes a profit, then it can support olympic sports, not before. Just my humble opinion.One of the oldest sports at the school with an active alum base. Less than zero chance.
Great. A real AD would have accomplished both. It’s called fundraising. See UConn. See Hobbs.Like men's rowing. Sorry everyone has their favorite.

Well we have a great fundraiser now who's presiding over the destruction of the football program. I guess you can figure out what side I'll be on.Great. A real AD would have accomplished both. It’s called fundraising. See UConn. See Hobbs.

I’m confident he will get the next coach right. After all, mediocrity was BM’s Everest. We should be able to get there.
I was mainly referring to the performance of the football team over the past 4 years, e.g., since Ash arrived.The B1G has only been playing lacrosse for 4 years.
Men's crew has a huge alumni base. Unfortunately it is not an NCAA sanctioned sport.Great. A real AD would have accomplished both. It’s called fundraising. See UConn. See Hobbs.
Rowing doesn’t have nearly the base that lacrosse does. Go to the alumni event this spring for a first hand look.
Thanks NJ DMA.
Yep. It’s called DMA. RU hit the geography lottery.There's a reason we're in the Big 10 and basketball powerhouse UConn is not.
They might but it’s not as big as lax. Per Pat.Men's crew has a huge alumni base. Unfortunately it is not an NCAA sanctioned sport.
I don't know. But I'm not sure that Pat would know either, since men's crew is no longer part of the athletic department.They might but it’s not as big as lax. Per Pat.
15 years without a ncaa bid and incredible mediocre record and a handful of plus 500 season..not shedding tears for an unsuccessful program
Yep. It’s called DMA. RU hit the geography lottery.
if it was based on on field achievement at that time, obviously UConn.
we never even won the BE.
That’s what you are doing for football.
Last Rutgers sport to be ranked number 1 in the country? MLAX. 2016.
Bac you are highly emotional. Lax guys take your girl something? Very strange.
It’s ok footballers only. You can have a mediocre football team and other sports that are good. Really, you can. It’s possible. Happens all the time.
raise your expectations.

Haha #1 and didnt make the ncaa tourney...now that team sounds like a fraud

I want better than mediocre football, better than mediocre basketball, and better than mediocre in other sports. I think it is possible at Rutgers. I don't buy the mentality that success in one sport is only possible with failure in others.
Without the contemporaneous football success, we don't get an invite.

Your understanding of athletics is a fraud.
Bac, I’m not trying to convince you. I get it. You are emotional and myopic. You don’t understand fundraising and how important it is in a dept. it’s funneling all money to a mediocre football program or nothing. I can also see you have no inside information as to how things were run or are now.yeah its not tied into making sure Pat Hobbs is AD so we can fund a mediocre lacrosse program
meanwhile you are a poster shitting on our only success in major sports in 20 years and our AD as well...so great

I’m ok with you thinking this. No need to debate it further.
BTW, any real AD is going to fund all the sports.
Nothing to disagree about. I’ve stated facts.
Here is another. Good AD’s don’t think myopically, like some people in this thread.
You can have a mediocre football program AND fund other sports appropriately. It’s called doing your job.
A monkey could have bled every other program dry to funnel funds to football. That took no skill or effort.
See how UConn did it.
You’re getting emotional again. Breathe.i was the first one here routinely laying into Bob Mulcahy over is neglect of basketball long before you decided to cry about lacrosse..again as if lacrosse would be the one getting any money..hint it would all be going to hoops
but Mulcahy and Greg gave Rutgers the relevancy it needed to get into the Big 10...and yes the market was the overall factor but clearly not if not showing to be a program committed to football
and whoever the new AD will, you seem to be emotional crying that Greg and the new AD will conspire to end all other sports....sounds like a drama queen to me..who is being emotional..stop fear mongering.
I get it you love Pat, Hobbs killed our football program...yeah that matters. This has nothing to do with Mulcahy except you trying to tear down Greg Schiano
That’s exactly right. Some of these football meatheads have such low expectations. BM didn’t fundraise. He has no understanding of how to do it. So he starved other programs to prop up his mediocre football program. Never won the weak BE. Sad.

Cali:
You’re right, other sports did not receive adequate funding during this time. That’s because football had the highest potential return on investment. It was a business decision. And it paid off, with season tickets ultimately rising to around 31K. this also increased the number of people that donated to Rutgers.
Don’t worry, basketball is looking up15 years without a ncaa bid and incredible mediocre record...not shedding tears for an unsuccessful program
All good, Bac crushing libs is far more amusing.Ouch! Looks like Randolph and Mortimer have had another falling out.
