Dear Supporters of Rutgers Athletics,
I am honored to have the opportunity to help build a Big Ten championship culture at Rutgers University. As a New Jersey native, I take immense pride in this University and all that it provides for our student-athletes, faculty, coaches, staff and alumni. Rutgers Athletics has been referred to as a “sleeping giant.” Now is the time to develop that enormous potential to ensure success on the biggest stage college athletics has to offer.
This is a monumental time. We move forward to create something very special for New Jersey’s State University. As an athletic department, we will accomplish our goals with pride and enthusiasm.
My first priority is to hire a football coach. It is essential that this person not only lead our young men, but serve as an ambassador for Rutgers University. We are working diligently to welcome a coach who will inspire and rejuvenate the excitement for Rutgers Football. I look forward to completing this process and sharing the news with all of you.
In my short time on campus, the Rutgers community has reinforced my confidence in its passion and dedication for the Scarlet Knights. I am excited to build relationships with the many people, both on and off campus, who share our vision for the future of Rutgers Athletics.
Please also join me in wishing the best of luck to Coach O'Neill and our women's soccer team as they take on Penn State tonight in the College Cup. The game begins at 5 p.m. and will be televised nationally on ESPNU.
Thank you for your continued support as we go forward together.
GO RU!

Director of Athletics
