Right now, as you’re firing up your grill, popping a beer and getting ready for the second tailgate in the Blue Lot, take a moment to exhale.
Why?
Because if things had gone differently last fall, there’s a good possibility you’d be avoiding ESPN cameras, and crisis mode on Rutgers campus.
Mike Lonergan, the head coach at George Washington, has been fired. He was fired last night at 10 pm after an investigation into his behavior during practices and his interactions with the his AD and players. It’s ugly.
And if Lonergan were here, it would have looked like Rutgers was doubling down on the Mike Rice incident.
