There have been some complaints that Rutgers has not reacted strongly or quickly enough to Imus' comments. Director of Athletics Robert Mulcahy has released a statement.

We expressed to these outstanding women that we understood the depth of their hurt to the degree that we could and that they were unfairly characterized in a vile, despicable and racist manner. They, and their families, are feeling terrible about it. We share their anger and indignation and want to express fully our pride in them. They did absolutely nothing to deserve this treatment. I don't want anything to tarnish the magnitude of the team's accomplishments this year.
