Its exactly the same level of play that many of us remember. No defense. No offense. Game over by halftime. This dud is destroying our football program and needs to be fired tomorrow

Bac is right !
Have you reconciled yourself to the fact that our AD has to go too?Its exactly the same level of play that many of us remember. No defense. No offense. Game over by halftime. This dud is destroying our football program and needs to be fired tomorrow

The hire is not on her at all. However, the events of the last year definitely are. Flood ignoring oversight, admitting that he blew off compliance training, professing ignorance of the rules, doing players' homework for crying out loud?what of this mess is on JH? she didn't hire him. she tried to fire him. i get it, the ultra biased SL doesn't like her, so that must mean she has to go.
coaches she didn't hire have failed. burn her at the stake!

Arrests, home invasions, armed robbery? We won the Fulmer Cup this off-season for crying out loud! This all screams lack of institutional control. How anyone can defend either Flood or Hermann staying after all this is beyond me. Truly.
Correct me out I'm wrong, but I was under the impression that Compliance and oversight is the responsibility of the Athletic Director, not the football coach. This ain't Paterno's Penn State.
Also, when you bring up the Shea comparison, I think you're missing my point. I don't blame her for poor recruiting or poor results on the field. What I am saying is that when the football coach is told by Compliance to stop trying to interfere with a player's professor, ignores them, and nothing is done until the story hits the papers and Barchi takes over the process, it means the AD is not doing her job. These are department level failures of oversight. None of this happened overnight, it took time to get to this point.
Flood did not attend compliance training. That's on Flood but also on Julie and her department.
I didn't think so bac but even so it doesn't invalidate my point. I always made sure my team knew what rules we could bend, what we could bury, and what had to be done by the book. That's what I see as not having happened here.um actually wasn't there an investigation going on before it hit the papers
That's fair. But isn't compliance with rules and training of the coaches one of the items that is directly in the AD's key responsibilities? See the job description for WVU:this may be true but we don't know for sure how this works either, I need more public information on how this works before I blame Julie

-a demonstrated commitment to and appreciable knowledge of NCAA rules compliance, and a commitment to sustain the spirit and letter of compliance standards
And, I am not going after Julie. It just seems in its usual ham-handed way, Rutgers can never seem to do anything "right" when it comes to athletics. The e-mail scandal was on Flood, but I was surprised at the detail that he had not gone to training, and this was a new revelation. Considering the past fiascoes with Rice, Cohen, Fred Hill Jr., etc, you would think that training and compliance would be given high priority. But maybe they cut the budget on that item?
As per the "failed" drug tests by a walk on FB player. RU policy is once a player fails the coach and AD meets on the penalty. After two it is the AD who makes the call. If they go after Flood on this how can Julie stay
Not a fan of Julie at all after my interactions with her but trying to stay impartial but it is getting real hard
