- Thread starter Rutgers Chris
- Start date
In.
Also, wasn’t there an article months ago suggesting the new President would be announced by April 25th? Well, that’s tomorrow.

Article makes it clear that Gov. Murphy was and is not interested.
Would be a colossal mistake!!!!
Eh, he's a putz but he likes sports and knows a lot of rich guys. Could always end up with another Barchi again.
Best supporter of RU Athletics I can remember as a Gov. Would love this choice.
Ok this time I will shout it:
ARTICLE MAKES IT CLEAR THAT GOV. MURPHY WAS AND IS NOT INTERESTED.

I believe @rutgersal called this weeks ago that he would be in the mix.
Nice call.
Nice call.
Got that, was just saying, hypothetically he would not be a bad pick for athletics. And stop shouting.
He was an asshat during the pandemic. Rules were for the little people while friends and family did not have to obey.
They're down to a couple of choices ,he's not one of them. But a decision soon
Yep, dining indoors at Restaurant Nicholas while the rest of us were freezing our asses off in outside tents
We have a lot of financial problems already. He skyrocketed spending in NJ. His dental plan alone would break the insurance industry. British people make fun of that guys choppers
Jesus Christ it’s like the set up to a bad porno movie or snuff film
thank god we need to hire better
picking someone on anything other than their qualifications should also be a no no, but we have seen it happen even in the role of VP of the US so no reason it can't happen for president of a university.
Lots of news reports today on Murphy and the job which is kind of scary.
Picking candidates based on age, gender or sexual preference are over hopefully. Pick candidate’s based on ability to do the job at a high level …..period.
He would be a huge help for RU athletics.
Is this from the same rumor mill that said he was he was a being considered for VP on the ticket last election?
Based on what, that he showed up to some games? I'm not saying he wouldn't be but all he did for NJ was increase spending by like 65% on an already over taxed state. What in his background makes you think he would be good for RU athletics?
I have seen or heard nothing to suggest that Gov. Murphy is "in the mix". What I have seen is that he was asked if he would consider being in the mix. He said NO. End of story, for me anyway.

He increased spending on RU and got the funding for the RAC renovations, for starters.
Where was:
- RU football
- RU MBB
- RU UNSWR ranking
- RU budget
in 2017 versus today? He had a hand in all of it.

How much of this back and forth happened with GS though (as an example)...if his name is floated it's probably for a reason. Could be he's interested or could be he isn't, but he would be a good choice. A lot of other govs successfully made the transition and he was the first gov I can remember that really advocated for RU rather than dismissed us.
Intense dislike for him but would actually be ok with this hire given what some other so called "hires" could be
maybe this guy could be convinced to come to NJ?
2nd cousin once removed maybe. LOL
But he's got the qualifications, did a lot of great things at Alabama, and I'm sure he already has a ton of red clothing
Awful Governor but A+ for Rutgers. I wouldn't hate it. Rich guy with massive political connections.
Be careful what you wish for. We could get another Barchi and torpedo the little progress athletics has made the last 10 years.

Remember when Schiano was hired. Remember what he did vs what Christie said.
He has through the years been an advocate for ru football and sports.
Folks, your only warning, keep the politics out of it. This thread is focused on Murphy and the search for a RU president.
