    Is Kenny Fletcher coming back for another year ?

    If he finds the right situation I could see him having an NFL career. I thought he did a great job considering he only played about 17 games at tight end.

    Football 2026 Rutgers Football Win Total: Odds released for pivotal season under Greg Schiano

    That stinks to see but I'm not shocked. I try to approach every season with optimism, but the transfer portal haul seems uninspiring.

    Keepers for next year

    My haphazard financial analysis: 1. Mid-tier B10 starter money: Francis 2. Low-tier B10 starter money: Mark 3. High-end B10 backup money: Buchanan, Powers, probably Davis? 4. I have no idea what you do with these guys: Grant, Zrno 5. Mid-tier B10 backup money: Nwuli, probably Dortch 6. Fill...

    Who would you spend NIL $ on for next year (current roster)

    This is a cool breakdown. Crazy thought: when do we start seeing tanking in college basketball? Could it make sense for cash strapped programs like RU to go all in once every 2 to 3 years as opposed to throwing 7 figures at Tariq Francis so we win 5 conference games instead of 2?

    After transfer portal closes, Rutgers is still looking for players at these positions

    I'm surprised by the lack of concern at the LB spot. Wright was banged up all year and Walker was questionable at best even before his major knee injury.

    Is Carson Beck actually a student at Miami ?

    No classes is a bit wild, but Matt Leinart was actively joking about taking only a ballroom dancing class like 20 years ago. I think Joe Burrow did a similar thing at LSU his last year. I'd imagine this is going to end up with football teams only being attached to schools by name and with all...

    Cam Spencer

    Unbelievable how the dominoes have fallen since this picture. I think that team was destined to fall back slightly, no matter the circumstances, but no one could have predicted: 1. Mag injury 2. Baye decommitment 3. Spencer and Mulcahy abrupt transfers. 4. Griffiths bust 5. Whatever last...

    Cam Spencer

    Love Spencer's game. I always laugh thinking about NJHawk writing out some 8 paragraph analysis indicating that his transfer to UCONN wasn't a big deal and that Austin Williams was a better fit for the system.

    Nice Bo Melton story

    Seems like he's carved out a role with the Packers as a swiss army knife. I'll always have a soft spot for the guys that survived the Ash era.

    Football Rutgers Football RB Samuel Brown V intends to enter transfer portal

    He was fantastic his Freshman year and was great complementing Monangai last season. It's a shame he had so many nagging injuries. Hopefully Brown and Campbell transferring means that Raymond and Benjamin are back in the fold next season.

    Freshmen

    One oddity I noticed this season was the lack of contribution from any true freshman. Did all the freshmen redshirt this season? Maybe this is the new normal in the transfer portal era, but it seems crazy that no one earned consistent playing time on this putrid defense. Hopefully Collier and...

    I Support Greg Schiano

    I view this as a unique situation since GS has always had a lackluster offense and a respectable defense. I'd like to think he can get the defense humming again quickly. I'm willing to consider 2025 an outlier in that regard for now. With that said, this program is going nowhere if some...

    OT: UMass - Worst Team Ever?

    Can we get Harasymiak back?

    Late Rutgers star was a legend in my hometown — and, for a kid sportswriter, a savior

    I'm preparing for the pitchforks to come out, but I like Politi. Has a good sense of humor and he clearly cares about the job. He can be negative at times, but I'm not sure how your report on Rutgers sports without being negative to a certain degree.

    Fun Team To Watch

    I'm with you, OP. Last years team had a really strange vibe to them, a "sum is worse than the whole of its parts" energy. This team at least seems cohesive and I think they will get better as the season progresses. Also, I know it's college basketball in 2025, but I do love the fact that...
