Former Rutgers coach Mike Rice, who was fired in 2013 after a videotape aired showing him shoving, grabbing and throwing balls at players and using gay slurs during practice, has been named interim head coach at The Patrick School in Elizabeth, New Jersey.
Rice, who hasn't held a head coaching position since he was dismissed by the Scarlet Knights after the videotape aired on ESPN's Outside the Lines, will coach the high school team for December while regular coach Chris Chavannes attends to his other duties as the school's principal, NJ.com reported.
