If there has been any program around as bad as Rutgers in the last two decades, it is them. Woefully overmatched in the A10 much like Rutgers has been woefully overmatched in the Big East and Big 10. Fordham has not made the NCAA since 1992 and has 12 twenty plus loss seasons since the

So I didn't know this but Fordham has a new coach named Jeff Neubeur, they are 7-1 despite losing their top player to transfer and they hired a guy that no one even knew who he was. A run at Eastern Kentucky where he made the NCAA a few times and an assistant under Beilen at Richmond and WVU and not from the area. He came in energetic and not intimidated by the challenge and got the players to buy in and stop the losing culture in their minds. True they haven't played a league game yet and they haven't exactly played a tough schedule but they beat St Johns and they beat Central Connecticut State by 32 points. Yet RU lost to the former and struggled for 25 minutes with the latter.

You need to have a guy with energy and a plan. Don't let them tell you that no one can do it.

Great article. Would love to one day read. Something like this written about RU

Bottom of article we fail to even crack the top ten locals power rankings...embarrassing as the largest school and state University
 
Good to see if Eddie puts in work, we may one day rise to the level of Stony Brook. Ugh
