In a move seemingly perfectly timed with Steve Politi's article on what Chris Ash wants to improve at Rutgers, longtime booster and Rutgers alumnus Ron Garutti and his wife, Joanna, donated $1.25 million to revamp the Rutgers weight room.
The idea behind this huge donation actually went down on National Signing Day, when the Garutti's saw the plans for a new S&C Center, met with coaches Ash and Parker, and decided to up their previous donation of $250,000.
This donation will clearly have both Parker and Ash ecstatic. Ash basically trashed the facilities in Politi's article, stating that they were on par with Temple, Syracuse, and UConn.
