Rutgers AD tries, fails to rein in student tailgate
Apparently the Rutgers AD went to a student tailgate to try to get the rowdiness under control. After mounting the stage to address the assembled students, he had second thoughts and decided to join the fun by cracking open a beer. More power to him, I say!
Eventually he came to his senses:
“I regret that any action on my part can be interpreted as promoting the use of alcohol,’’ he said. “That was certainly not my intention.’’
One would hate to promote the use of alcohol to a bunch of college kids. Think about what they might do! On the bright side, this guy is way cooler than Brandon.

He would have had to spike the beer on 4th down to go full Rutgers.

Never go full Rutgers.

Everyone knows that Adults shouldn't and can't drink beer. That kind of stuff is for kids.. Not responsible adults.

I don't get why colleges think alcohol use is bad even if the student is over 21. I get not promoting alcohol abuse but they are adults.

He's the face of the athletic department and a representative of the University. Could you imagine the shit storm if Warde Manuel or Mark Schlissel did this?

Welcome to the real world. If you want a big boy job then accept the responsibility that comes with it. This isn't a new idea.

We're not talking about drinking beer at a tailgate. That's not what he did, he got up on stage at the event and chugged one.
September 20th, 2016 at 11:58 PM ^
Not the best judgement.

'Not the Best Judgement' is engraved in Latin on the Rutgers University official seal. ...

The amount of upvotes this post got is yet another confirmation of my general dislike of the old "murica" commentariat.

Before this afternoon I had never had a sip of alcohol in my life. In the few hours since I've seen that video, I've drank a case of beer and done all manner of horrible things in my intoxicated state. When I sober up, probably in jail, I'll surely curse that Rutgers AD for (burp) inspiring poor, impressionable me to do all this.

wtf I love Rutgers now
September 20th, 2016 at 11:01 PM ^
Scott Farrel on CBS radio is roasting Rutgers hard right now. Says they are a trash school and would kill himself if his kid ever wanted to go there.
September 21st, 2016 at 12:03 AM ^
But . . . but . . . they're going to make all of New York City Big Ten fans!
September 21st, 2016 at 6:46 AM ^
Yes indeed. Both fans of Rutgers promised to make it a block-by-block campaign if necessary too, as I recall. I think that at last report they were going to be done with Staten Island and moving across the Verrazano Narrows Bridge by 2078 or so.

Parents must be so proud/glad they sent their kids there.
September 21st, 2016 at 12:05 AM ^
I wish I was at that tailgate so bad, looked awesome on social media. Also, nothing wrong with going to Rutgers, but I'm biased.
September 21st, 2016 at 12:09 AM ^
Ah yes.
