The guy does CHOP. Nice to have the support and for him to have Rutgers Football's back.
Props to Gov. Murphy for Supporting RU Football
- Thread starter Knight Shift
- Start date
He’s probably a Republican. 😃That's a good question (and Noah has a glove on his throwing hand):
Murphy's killing it for RU FB and you're just so, so mad. How petty.
One thing that I have to hand it to Murphy on. Like so many of both parties he's got that fake, phony politician's smile down pat.
Looking for Phil to make a nice donation to NIL for Rutgers. He knows a lot of rich guys too.....
Not a fan of him at all, but it doesn't hurt to have his support and attention
These reactions are why I can't stand politics. It's entirely possible to be conservative or dislike Murphy but still realize it was nice / good for him to do that (even if it was politically motivated$.
The post that got the most likes is the fake phony smile one. We finally have a Governor that is all in on Rutgers and we have people complaining . This is why we can't have nice things

Way to go Phil. I can tell who the triggered snowflake leaving the “angry” emoji is without even clicking on it. Soft Seton Hall fans…
He's probably the most Pro-RU Governor we've had, since I can remember....regardless of politics. Not sure if it's him on his own recognizing the importance of Rutgers / Rutgers sports, or if Holloway has something to do with getting him engaged. I also think Holloway is the best leader we've had at RU in many years. I think both of them will be important in helping to change the culture. I mean that both from an Athletics perspective as well as an Academics perspective. All Rutgers alumni, students, the state residents, etc. should be proud of the overall state university.
See, that's completely fair and non-partisan. For too long, it seems like we have had ambivalent Governors or Governors working against us.
The good thing is that his support extends beyond athletics so the RU 100, 5, 2 or whatever they are these days shouldn't complain.
LOL. The last budget allocated over 100M to both athletics and academics.
Which is what, 100M times more than his predecessor?
Maybe Murphy should have called Brey and ask how to shut the program down?
If you read the comments on Facebook, and click on who is complaining, you see either Seton Hall or Middlesex CC...so peer schools
I'm not sure how political it is when Murphy is term limited. Not sure what office he could be running for aside from President...and if supporting RU is a qualification for that, we're better off than I thought!
In any case, the fact is that Rutgers fans and alums are now a constituency to be courted and heard, as it should be- at a time when he doesn't he have a race coming up- is big.
Murphy (not from NJ and no connection to RU) has been a great outspoken supporter of RU sports. More so than any Governor in the last 50 years and probably ever (the only governor in recent memory with an RU degree was Florio who I believe went to Camden law). Thank you Gov. Murphy.
Sure, just like Jon Corzine is gonna make up the shortfall in the stadium expansion budget.
it's nice that he stopped by but you don't vote for a guy based on him attending practices or games of his state u--that should be a given
As certain judges say…never trust a guy in a turtleneck.
True. I was just trying to make the point that it's possible to dissociate what's good for Rutgers and what's good for you or a politician. That's crazy talk to some.
Anyone who doesn’t see this for what it is being hood winked. Phil Murphy isn’t donating any of his Goldman Sachs millions to Rutgers . Murphy is not adverse to using tax payers $$$$ as long as it looks favorably upon him. Still we should be glad the state funding is more today than in the past. Can’t wait to see the estimated costs for a Rutgers football upgrade on practice and Hale Center.
I started the thread on the Round Table on this topic.
This is my follow up later on…
“I look it this way…your biggest game of the season and the boss comes by for a pep talk.
Whether you agree/voted for him or not…it’s kinda big and B1G time when you think about it.”
All that really needs to be said IMO.

Regardless of political party, the more NJ politicians that have RU roots or rooting interests the better for RU Athletics.
did he get state funding for the footballpractice facility? I must have missed that ? Hes more concerned about law abiding citizing and retired law enforcement not having guns in NJ.
N.J. officials spar over gun reform, as Supreme Court rules on concealed carry
Like New York, New Jersey is one of six “may-issue” states, which means law enforcement can use discretion in issuing concealed carry permits.

Even saltier than the other troll. Not a great look.
Lol peer schools my ass. Those kids couldn't get into RU if their lives depended on it. They'll be the ones getting coffee for RU grads in 5 years.
