Easton Avenue's finest gin mills
In the afternoon:
A good but not great Houston team 49, Kyle Flood and Rutgers 14
The first of several absolute asskickings that were to come that dreadful season.

At night:
Urban Liar and Ohio State 63, State Penn 14


What a time to be alive that was.

And I understand there were quite some fireworks in the locker room at halftime.

You wonder what would have happened if we lost against USF instead of won. Flood would have been fired in 2013 most likely. No Chris Ash. Would we have hired someone equally as bad?
 
Well- here are the HC's hired in 2014
Franklin/Peterson/Bohl/Mason/Babers/Strong/Clawson/Petrino/Sarkisian/Harsin/Fritz/Diaco/Partridge/Monken/Martin/Anderson/Whipple/Clark/Creighton/Brohm

We would have most likely been choosing between Babers/Diaco/Partridge/Whipple

Most of that list would have said no due to the money and lack of funding. IMHO it would have likely between Partridge and Whipple, being the only two that would have accepted.

Seems like whipple almost got the rutgers job a few times

Maybe, maybe not. Julie Hermann had already alienated a bunch of the donors, so not sure where that would have ended up.

What happened?

Never got the details, but there was a lot of ........ strife, shall we say, within the assistant coaching ranks.
