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.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.

Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.

MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .

''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''

Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.

He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.

''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''

Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.

Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.

With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
