We know that Danny Hurley has been in talks with Rutgers athletic director Pat Hobbs regarding the men's basketball coaching position. Today it was also reported that two additional candidates interviewed with Hobbs yesterday, with them being on total opposite ends of the spectrum. Mike Lonergan, head coach at George Washington, interviewed with Hobbs yesterday, according to Steve Politi. In addition, after being rumored to be interested in the Rutgers job over the weekend, it was reported that ESPN analyst Jay Williams also interviewed with Hobbs yesterday.
Lonergan is an excellent candidate who has more college coaching experience than Hurley.
