Rutgers athletic director Pat Hobbs is proving that being successful in all sports truly matters under his leadership. While that might seem like it should always be a given, those of us who have followed this athletic department as a whole for decades know that hasn’t always been the case. Hobbs is proving he cares about winning with every program, as he has now made changes with several Olympic sports in the past year.
He hired Justin Rowe after a national search last summer to take over the rowing program. Last month, Hobbs made a change with gymnastics, letting go of longtime head coach Lou Levine after his program failed to make much impact since joining the Big Ten.
