That is a scary thought for Rutgers Athletics! We are about to embark on our 26th year of absence from the NCAA tournament. But then again the women have represented us well...so yes, we are a women's basketball school :weary:

As most of us know, in the 70s and early 80s Rutgers WAS a basketball school. Then we decided to go "big time" in football. Now no one can argue that the football program is not in a better place than 30 years ago, but looking back at what we've actually accomplished it is hard not to be disappointed. We have been and still are the "sleeping giant." And then there is the seemingly corresponding decline in the men's basketball program over the same time frame, especially after Wenzel. So really,after 30 years of big time athletics, we are really neither a football nor a basketball school. We're pretending to be a football school and the hope is that the money that it generates will trickle down and help the other sports programs. But as an athletic department we lack a true identity. The poster above who said we area women's hoops school is probably the closest to the actual truth.

I think people might be saying "sleeping giant" like I told my lil brother the deer was just sleeping by the side of the road as we passed.

We're a sleeping giant and Fludd is supplying the sleeping pills.

I am 38. Just got done raking leaves. Sitting on my deck with a Bud and cigar listening to Ray Lucus. Waiting for Flood to speak.

I now believe I will listening to the same kind of presser when I am 68.

We're neither a FB nor BB school. We're a wrestling school
