April 2, 201313 yr Watching ESPN right now and I can't believe what I'm seeing. If this guy didn't coach basketball some of the stuff he does he'd be arrested for assault. He makes Bob Knight look like a good guy. He won't have a job much longer hopefully
April 2, 201313 yr Author ESPN to air video of Mike Rice abusive language, behavior that led to suspension | NJ.com
April 2, 201313 yr Author The Rutgers AD is not coming off very well in this interview at all. It seems that Rice is a personal friend and trying to brush it all away. Shapp (sp) is doing a great job at interviewing this bafoon.
April 2, 201313 yr Question I have: The AD saw it and only suspended him, how do you not fire him and how do you justify firing him now after you've already dealt with it?
April 2, 201313 yr Author Question I have: The AD saw it and only suspended him, how do you not fire him and how do you justify firing him now after you've already dealt with it? The AD won't fire him, the president of Rutgers should, then can the AD.

April 2, 201313 yr Are players just accustomed to this kind of abuse? How come they never came together and whipped him? Whipping him might not be realistic, considering they could have been worried that charges would be filed against them, even in retaliation. But why not stage some type of group boycott or group walkout? And the video was grainy, but it appeared that he didn't single out one player but rather went after seemingly everyone. Not sure how he keeps his job at this point, especially considering he isn't winning huge anyway, and they are about to move to the Big 10.
April 2, 201313 yr After seeing this he should be fired. I can live with the language but the physical abuse should not be tolerated. Im really surprised that one of these players didn't snap and knock him on his butt.
April 2, 201313 yr He has to be fired after this. Like Dawgs said the language is one thing (though the gay slur would have anyone in trouble) but the physical abuse takes it to another level. This is beyond any type of abuse Knight did (that we saw)... If Rutgers doesn't can this guy, they're a joke.
