A few weeks ago, Pat Hobbs was given a contract extension. And I posted a story on that in which I said that Hobbs had an ally in the new chancellor for the New Brunswick campus. And some people said, “yeah, right!”
Told ya so!
Deba Dutta, the new chancellor, came to Rutgers by way of Purdue and Michigan. He knows the Big Ten. He knows what it means to be in the Big Ten....and not just for athletics.
Is he an “ally” of Pat Hobbs? Okay, maybe that was a stretch, but he isn’t the enemy (heed my words, Mark Killingsworth!
