That's actually not terrible when you're the worst program in the Power 5. Getting one player from the NJ top 35 and one from the NY top 10 is just embarrassing though.

Hope you won't get any replies that blast you for "caring" about Cuse. Those of us who have been around here a lot longer know the history and appreciate them struggling. Thanks.

This reminds me of the teasing #117 Rutgers fans gave #118 Temple in 2000/2001 for being the worst team in the country.

Rutgers is a great program that has had 2 years of horrible teams because of a bad coaching hire. However the PROGRAM (fan base, facilities, team alumni, brand, etc) is much better than Syracuse football. Cuse played LSU last year and couldn't sell the 40k seat dome out. We were 2-9 playing #5 PSU getting ready for a beating and filled the joint. Sorrycuse

I love this board, but these are the kinds of things where some of you are guilty of getting carried away. You guys played in the first college football game; you should know the sport didn't begin in 2006. RU is better positioned than Syracuse moving forward, but let's not make it out to be Alabama compared to South Alabama.

Yeah, these casuals aren't even laughing at Princeton's pathetic class.

Leave it to the Penn Stater to bring some common sense to this board.

Cause scored nearly as many points in one game against a conference opponent than we scored against all of our conference opponents. (Couse still lost the game though.)

Potential (RU) is great, as is history/tradition ((Cuse). But neither guarantees success. I don't think there is any measurement which would classify Rutgers as a great program. There were multiple threads on this board - and other stories - which indicated Penn St fans had a huge presence at HPSS. Not sure you want to claim that sell out as a plus.

I would focus a bit more on Maryland than the Cuse...Maryland recruited quite well and is above RU in the division.. Well then again so is everyone else..I like Ash and think if given time will win at RU but how can a fan of RU look down their nose at any P5 program? Mind boggling

Are we allowed to look down on Kansas?

It's easy.
