The Scarlet Spotlight is happy to be joined by Rutgers'
Director of Athletics, Pat Hobbs, for Episode 71 of the podcast and
our final show of 2020. Hobbs recaps the RU football season, the
implementation of COVID protocols and how the athletes responded to
the challenge to get through all nine games. Additionally, Hobbs
discusses his relationship with Rutgers President Jonathan Holloway
and football coach Greg Schiano, while noting potential contract
extensions for C. Vivian Stringer and Steve Pikiell on the
basketball side of things. Hobbs also gets into the Big Ten budget
shortfalls, amateurism & NIL conversations, facilities,
fundraising, how to execute 19 sports in one season this spring and
videos of his dancing. After the interview, Danny and Jon touch on
the end of Rutgers football's season, a nice win for RU women's
hoops and the rarified air that RU men's basketball has entered at
No. 11 in the AP poll.
