Rutgers Athletics: This is Julie Hermann's Legacy

We’ve seen pictures before, haven’t we?

Grand drawings with sunny skies, backpacked students sauntering, and a lovely building meant to draw in recruits and push Rutgers basketball to the next level. Lovely facilities that will put Rutgers football on par with the competition.

But, here we are again, with more drawings and another plan. Another opportunity for Rutgers to act like a university in a real athletic conference.A chance for the school to draw in some of the great talent in this state and rise above mediocrity and become great.

Robert Barchi sat at yesterday’s Board of Governors meeting and unveiled a plan for the University as a whole, including updated athletic facilities—a basketball practice facility and improvements to the Hale Center.
