Comparing Rutgers to Denver. Wait....what?
When we published a two-part post on Rutgers’ fall Olympic sports (Part 1 and Part 2), we got some interesting comments, particularly in how Rutgers should address the lack of success it has faced in the fall. Two comments brought up the University of Denver as a point of reference.
Denver? Yes, the University of Denver, a private college originally founded as Colorado Seminary in 1864 and known as the University of Denver since 1880. (I can’t help myself with the history lessons.) But back to those comments on DU (no, it’s not UD) athletics.
A wish for Olympic Sports
We all know RU cannot magically transform all Olympic Sports overnight into contenders.
