Report: Robert Morris' Rice to take over at Rutgers

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

05/03/2010 - Piscataway, NJ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Robert Morris head basketball coach Mike Rice will apparently be named the new coach at Rutgers, according to multiple media sources.

The reports mentioned that Rice will officially be named the new Scarlet Knights coach later in the week. The deal will reportedly be a long-term one, upwards of six years.

Rice led the Colonials to a Northeast Conference title and a NCAA Tournament appearance in 2009. The Colonials nearly upset Villanova in the first round. He tallied a record of 73-31 in three seasons at Robert Morris.

Fred Hill, the former Rutgers head coach, resigned in April stemming from an incident where he yelled obscenities at Pittsburgh coaches during a home baseball game. The school later reached a financial settlement with the former coach.

Hill finished 47-77 in his six seasons with the Scarlet Knights and a dismal 13-57 mark in Big East Conference play.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
