Do not always agree with Gov. but his comments were right on the money, surprised the SL even reported them unless they were setting him up for an new Anti Christie Editorial tomorrow.

Said she spoke to the team after practice, supports Flood 100% and the players must too, and said she shed tears while addressing them. Pretty good stuff.

If one were to accept the premise that Flood is responsible for x, y, and/or z because he's "the CEO" the logical extension is JH is responsible herself as well.

You can't exactly "clean house" and leave her in there.

Sensible move by her.

I didn't realize Flood was Hermann's hire.

Those that said that Flood would be here until the B1G money kicks in, no matter what, appear to have been right. Flood's greatest quality is that he is likable, everything else be damned, lol.

Well she didn't hire him so don't understand why she would take the fall as well. The logical conclusion is that JH know that the email issue will not be Flood's ouster on its own. Therefore she can publicly endorse him.
 
The only thing that will convince me that Julie and Rutgers is committed to Flood for the long term is another extension with University money. Hopefully one donor doesn't continue to decide who our coach is.
 
Pernetti was the worst AD, bar none.

BUT HE WAS A RUUUTTTGGGEERRSS MAN
 
"Jurich, Pernetti nominated for AD award"

'Pernetti has worked hard to reduce his program's dependence on university fees by coming up with innovative revenue ideas.'

'Next, Pernetti. You want to talk about the biggest winner to date in conference realignment? It is Rutgers, which found a way into the Big Ten, a move that would have been laughable 10 years ago as the Scarlet Knights wallowed in the bottom of the Big East football cellar.

I don't know that they're tied to him long term and he certainly doesn't warrant any extension to his contract after the adjustments already made. My point has always been she supports him like she would support any coach and I don't think she's desperately trying to get rid of him just because she didn't hire him. She got him a salary boost and more money for assistants. The rest is he sinks or swims on his own. If he wins he stays and if he performs sub par he could get let go like any other coach out there.

And yet, for all the "innovative" ideas, in only one year of Pernetti's tenure did he manage to reduce dependence on University fees, and then only by about $500K.

Are you sure that's the accomplishment you want to hang your hat on?
 
It's not my quote. It's a writer from the Sporting News. Go argue with him. Other writers and Award Committees also have good things to say about Pernetti. Do a goggle search, there are plenty there. The poster said he was the 'worst'. I think Gruninger has that award nicely wrapped up. And I do like Julie H, I talk briefly with her (as many others do) before almost every home football game. But the dopey poster who hates on Pernetti caught my attention with his hateful post.

Don't be stupid, Abro. You're the one who selected that quote as an example of Pernetti's accomplishments. You could have chosen to highlight any of Pernetti's accomplishments, but you actually selected one of his failures.
 
I selected one of the writer's quotes. I have no problem with it, you do.

I like Julie more and more, but you don't have to hate Pernetti to like Julie, and you don't have to hate Flood to like Schiano.

You're the hater, not me. Tim wasn't perfect, but he wasn't nominated for that award for his looks, he had real accomplishments whether you want to admit it or not.

Now crawl back under that rock from where you came from. Hater.

I didn't say that Pernetti didn't have real accomplishments. But the item you selected to highlight was actually one of his failures.

It just seems strange for you to try to defend Pernetti by highlighting one of his failures.
 
And while Pernetti was being such a good steward of our dependence on university fees, he made some coaching hires that cost us how much in buyouts and replacement coach salary increases?
 
From poster Mal : 'Pernetti was the worst AD, bar none.'

"To seal the deal that will forever change the face of Rutgers athletics, Pernetti needed poker table cool and the quick-draw sense of when to act. But no matter how badly he wanted to make it happen, Pernetti also knew there was much that was beyond his control.'

'After the Notre Dame announcement, Pernetti saw an opening. A onetime Rutgers tight end with a reputation as a steely competitor, he owns a set of credentials suitable for these times. As part of the executive team that launched CSTV, the first network devoted soley to college sports, the 42-year-old Pernetti had overseen television packages with several conferences around the country.'

'His relationship with Delany, forged over his television years, remained strong.

'standing before the cameras to announce Rutgers’ new home, Pernetti brought his staff into his office and popped the champagne.'

Show me where in that statement Julie supports Flood. She tells the players they have her unwavering support. Never mentions Flood.

Pernetti failure ??

From Forbes :
'By all accounts, Pernetti’s efforts as an athletics director largely benefited Rutgers financially. Pernetti’s tenure saw the first two naming rights deals in Rutgers’ history, leading to an additional $1 million dollars in the athletics department’s annual budget. Under Pernetti’s watch, for the first time in Rutgers athletics history, all 24 of its teams were outfitted by Nike. This apparel deal will bring in $5.2 million over five years.'

'Pernetti brought money and eyes to Rutgers athletics. '

Seems she said it to the team and Flood but not publicly in the statement

"

PISCATAWAY — Rutgers athletic director Julie Hermann addressed the football team after Monday's practice and expressed support for coach Kyle Flood, according to a person familiar with the situation.

The person said Hermann became emotional as she told the players she had Flood's back and implored the players to do the same. The "walk-through" practice session on Monday morning was closed to the media.
 
RU fans arguing over the merits of our past athletic directors should consider:

Twitchell. No vision. Star Ledger quiet.
Grunninger. No vision. Star Ledger quiet.
Mulcahy. Vision. Star Ledger attacks.
Pernetti. Vision. Star Ledger attacks.
Herman. Vision. Star Ledger attacks.

Get it?

What she can say publicly and privately don't necessarily have to coincide. Suppose she comes out publicly with full unwavering support for Flood and then something pops up in the email investigation. Then the headline will be "RU AD supports coach coercing professsors etc...." Towers can do it (she may have even suggested it to him, who knows), O'Hara can make comments and what consequence do they face if something pops up? None. What would she or anyone in the admin face? Plenty. There's know need for it. When she extended the contract for Flood she came out with the usual flowery language. Now she's got to be more measured in what is public, especially with a hostile media.

The people who need to know/feel her support have said they feel it. Flood has said it. The team has said it and while her comments to the team yesterday were behind closed doors they made their way out to the public and it's known out "in the world" how she feels. That's all that counts. After that it's up to Flood to sink or swim on his own.

It must be society today. Always the need for now now now. I need a statement now. I need to hear the full support now. I want the investigation over now. Not we need to take a measured thoughtful approach especially in the face of a hostile media. Besides rather than looking at real actions that show support like boosting his contract/buyout before it was even necessary, a move many here thought was wrong, they focus on the peripheral stuff. Focus on substance over style.
