Has Flood coached his last game at RU ?

Are the 3-4 people that contacted the OP employees of the Star Ledger?....do they even still have that many employees?
 
But Nuts, do you really want the same sh!tshow as 2013? It would be out there w/i 6 hours because nothing is a secret at RU. People would be running to the NSL at the first hint.

Why people are so willing to throw everything away to get what they want is beyond me. Do you really want a lame duck HC and staff with 8 games remaining? Good bye any chance of winning games and good bye recruiting class.

Let him finish the season, then do whatever is necessary.

If you fire him he's not a "lame duck."
 
I keep getting contacted by guys who swear they've heard that Flood is done, Wilson will finish out the season, and Rutgers will begin looking for a new head coach. Some of these guys are busters and could be full of crap. But several others aren't....and they are usually on the money with this stuff. Not sure what to believe.

I don't know what will happen with Flood, I suspect he's done.
But you should have a lot of choices of coaches because there will be a lot of turnover at the end of the season,
possibly before. Golden, Strong, London to name a few.

The timing of this investigation, seems to correspond with everything else going on. I was wondering why it takes a team of lawyers to evaluate policy, and how that policy is being enforced. The answer is simple, it doesn't! They will come back within a week, and say that the policy has not been enforced, as it should be. And, blame Flood. Then you will see the firing of Flood. Soon(hopefully) followed by the announcement of a new Head Coach. The administration, needs reason to fire and not pay Flood, money is still an issue. This "investigation" will give them the necessary ammo needed. IMHO

Right on...

Remember Conclusion #2 of the Improper contact report....
"We conclude that Coach Flood's conduct potentially violated the University's Code of Ethics"

I don't think it will necessarily be quick but its the logical next step to justify a firing for cause.
 
Everything is speculation. But honestly I hope he's gone. I'd like to put this behind us and get a headstart on our uphill battle for redemption.

You really can't get a head start until the season is over. Unless, you go out and hire GS now.

You'd probably have to make a mid-season change to contact agents as Flood's own agent, Jimmy Sexton, has been dubbed the most powerful in college sports. Chances are that Sexton also represents potential RU targets. Plus, RU leaks more than a 100 year-old roof that's been hit by a bomb, too.

Personally, I want Mark Richt if UGA lets him go.

I have at least 3-4 people, daily, bring up the fact that our HC is a f*cking idiot for the nonsense he attempted to pull with e-mailgate.
Nuts, Sounds like people love to annoy you. Is this 4 new people or the same 4 people?

Perhaps if you wore this shirt, you could cut down on the comments.

I'm Aware Flood is an idiot, now move along.

Yes but he isn't his only client. I can assure you if he has a client who wants to coach at RU he would reach out on his behalf. Richt would have many suitors to choose from

Ethically, however, Sexton would have to let KF know that RU is making inquiries about replacing him. At least that's how I would read the Rules (assuming Sexton has a law license), but I'm not a certified agent so I can only guess how these things are handled.
 
The only thing he should be fired for is the product on the field . End of story
Bro, how many years of declining recruiting, guys leaving the program, losing to teams we should beat, sticking with a failing QB because "he's our starter," flagging defensive play, week after week of unexplainable implosions, and the bar being lower every year than it was the year before is it going to take before it's enough? Please, my man, we should have beaten PSU last year. Last year's game was a gift to them, and the one thing that made them bowl eligible. This year we should have beaten them like a rented mule and got housed, humiliated, by a coach that so much as put his junk in our mouths when he said Rutgers and Md. can't compete and he will own our states. Losing to him two years in a row is enough to fire Kyle. He can't recruit, he can't coach, he can't beat Penn State. Check and mate.

Not to call you out, man, just venting and I hope that you agree

You are both saying the same thing.
 
Unless something new comes out, I don't see why he won't be coaching the IU game.

I lol'd.
 
Flood will be back next year coaching Rutgers unless we win less than 4 games so cry me river...just like many attempted to castrate Leonte Carroo on this board
the same clowns think they are in the know because some "friends" said so......they know diddly squat about what's going to happen...the ONLY way we make a change is if we win LESS than 4 games ...and even then it's highly doubtful.
 
Really? Have R Felonious Secondary all posted bail yet, or are they still singing to the cops on a daily basis?

Any other stories will be easier to weather if they are about Former Coach Flood.

I live and work in dc and am an outgoing Rutgers fan.. not one person has mentioned the email, secondary, or Caroo to me, ever. Not a one. Trust me it's not a national headline. One outside the lines half hour and a little BTN coverage does not equal a national controversy.
 
Whatever happens, I know one thing is near certain: the Rutgers Admin will find a way to bungle the firing, search, and hiring processes.

How can you saw such a stupid thing? Look how smooth the AD hiring process went with the top candidate chosen by the search committee :weary:

I'm not a lawyer but either are many agents. I doubt anywhere in Sexton's contract it states he can't work on behalf of his other clients.

Sexton can work on behalf of all of his clients, but he'd have to apprise Flood of the conflict.

So you know this, for a fact, but no one else knows anything? Is that my understanding of your statements? Do you not see the hypocrisy in this?

It doesnt matter. The guys we want are all still coaching (sans Schiano) and will be until December.

You don't believe there agents will be contacted before season ends? The hire might wait until December but the bag door negotiations will start earlier.
 
The guy can't beat a team with a winning record, gets blown out 3 or 4 times per year, recruits worse than his predecessor despite many more advantages and just got caught flagrantly violating various rules and there are still people that don't want to see him gone yesterday?
 
It seems like a distinct possibility. I think it's hard to underestimate how bad he made the football program and the athletic department look with his antics. It's another case where the cover up is worse than the crime, but the cover up was bad news. You can't trust a coach who does something like that.

Really? Not a distinct possibility at all! Think you are a bit over the top with your critique. It's not like he stuck his d*ck out on the 50 for gosh sake. I think your agenda is showing.

The loyalty to this guy by a few - very few - is stunning. Nothing wrong with it, at all, it's everyone's personal choice/preference, which I'm fine with, just surprised that some are still taking such a positive stance with the shenanigans he's pulled on top of everything else.

Are You Nuts -- Obviously you are not now, nor have ever really been, a Loyal Son of Rutgers.
 
Maybe all these rumors are just a way to extract more $$$ from Towers. And is Towers really just a front for every coach that wants to recruit New Jersey?
