NEW BRUNSWICK — Twenty-two months after taking over a Rutgers athletics department in turmoil, Pat Hobbs was financially rewarded for his work as Athletics Director on Thursday.
During a closed portion of Board of Governors meeting, Rutgers gave its Athletics Director a contract extension that is guaranteed through the 2021-22 season and could extend to 2023-24 and beyond.
NJ Advance Media obtained the contract, which was signed by Hobbs and university President Robert Barchi on Tuesday and approved by the Board on Thursday.
