On the sideline one of the assistant coaches was saying "dont smack his head" to the other players when he was celebrating. I hope they are watching him closely this game.
That is concerning to say the least.

Why? He’s got two more games to get his feet wet without burning a year. Really no harm in giving him a play or series here and there against Indiana or Maryland
He's still not fully ready, specifically physically. He easily could get injured if he plays this year and if that happens you run the risk of "ruining" his mental state. Look at how other decently touted QB recruits have fared here when getting thrown to the wolves.

Rutgers Fans when we dont get the first down throwing to the guy 10 yds downfield : "Why dont we hit the guy in the flat when he was so open- Vederal is so Vederal"

Rutgers Fans when we throw to the flat and dont get the first : " Why is Rutgers so stupid and dont even throw beyong the sticks
And right on cue the complaining about #2. Comes out
