[Halldan1]

"The University has taken action to remove me," wrote Jose Rebimbas, who has won 384 games in 20 seasons.

Jose Rebimbas, one of the nation’s most respected Division III men’s basketball coaches, is being pushed out at William Paterson University just one week into the season...............

I guess the backstory will come out, but I have never heard anything other than good things about Rebimbas.

Jerry should have more soon.

Wow, what the?

 

[SHUSource]

This is nuts. Should be interesting to hear this one unfold...

Is he a D1 recruiting assistant in the future?

 

[bluemoments]

No. He's a head coach.

Jose reported on his Facebook page there was a miscommunication regarding Gym Rental Fee for a camp he runs at WP. My guess is that WP said he owed them money, he said no, so they said take a hike. Seems like a somewhat trivial thing to do to a 20 year HC, but who knows what else is in play.

William Paterson forfeited its game tonight, presumably because of a player boycott.

Wow.

According to some Tweets, such as the one below from the WPSC 88.7FM Sports Director, the team warmed up and them walked off the court.

Right or wrong, the inmates are taking over the asylums. Better left for another forum.
