Eddie filled a void in a time of turmoil. He is a nice guy and certainly is a student of the game.
Unfortunately, he is not the right fit to lead this program.
This is a program that has been burnt to the ground.
It needs to be rebuilt from scratch.
It will take an energetic young coach the likes of Danny Hurley.
Eddie knows basketball but he also knows that college is a lot different than the NBA.
At this level recruiting is a major part of success.
I see no evidence that he has the ability to bring in talent needed to elevate Rutgers basketball to a competitive level in the B1G conference.
Julie cannot fire him now.
As a Rutgers guy, for the long term good of the program, Eddie should voluntarily terminate his contract.
Rutgers must finally make the right hire.
Do whatever needs to be done and hire Danny Hurley.
Then, once your coach is in place, the facilities upgrade will be the next order of business.
