Pat Hobbs: '100 percent confidence' in Rutgers coach Chris Ash

Hiring the two head coaches who lead Rutgers' revenue-producing sports.

Launching a $100 million fundraising initiative.

Generating $42 million in private funds towards facilities upgrades.

Presiding over a groundbreaking for the soon-to-be-built multisport practice complex.

Securing an $18 million gift with New Jersey's largest hospital network to provide unprecedented health care of Rutgers' 650 student-athletes.

Yes, Pat Hobbs had a pretty productive first year as Rutgers Athletics Director.

Raise your hand if you believed that on Nov. 29, 2015 – the day Hobbs was hired in the wake of the ouster of AD Julie Hermann and football coach Kyle Flood — that the Rutgers athletics department would've accomplished the aforementioned achievements over the last 365 days?
