What New Jersey university's basketball players sued their coaches for forcing them to run wind sprints in the nude?The answer, of course, is Rutgers University. And there's a Holy Cross connection, as former HC center, 2001 PL tournament MVP and shot-blocker extraordinaire Josh Sankes was a player at Rutgers while that was going on. Josh subsequently transferred to Holy Cross.
I can't recall, though, if Josh was part of the lawsuit against the Rutgers coaches. I'm pretty sure he was forced to run nude, but for some reason, I don't think he was part of a lawsuit. I'm not sure, though. If someone out there remembers more details of Josh's involvement in this, please leave a comment.
And no, I wasn't fortunate enough to be on the receiving end of that trivia question!

Jon, I have no personal knowledge other than what was widely reported at the time, and that was that Josh WAS involved in the lawsuit which I believe was dropped once he gained admission to HC.
Thanks for the corrections, guys.
