It is interesting to note that Connor Stalions is coaching at the Detroit MI high school, Mumford HS, that is the alma mater of Stephen Michael Ross. Yes, that Stephen Michael Ross, who has been extremely generous to Michigan.

Rutgers is still one of less than a handful of power conference schools to yet host.

If this season turns the way we hope and some experts are predicting…

Which 2024 game is most likely for RU to host ESPN game day ?!

You have to factor in things like
- RU record and momentum at that point
- the opponent likely has to be ranked
- what other big games nationally would contend that weekend
- what network is carrying that game

Which game is our best chance to host in 2024???

Starts at 4:00.

NCAA is considering historic changes to amateurism rules, including permitting athletes in all sports (not only FB) to play in a 5th year & preserve their redshirt; to earn prize money before college; and to eliminate the NLI.

We all know them, the posters who say something completely ridiculous and weeks or even months later, their outrageous take turns out true. Maybe their hit rate is only 10% but the heat they constantly take ( including board bans) makes them some of the most colorful posters on here and "Good for Business" on TKR

My 2 nominees are

Kyk - for his starring role in " Will Wimsatt Hit the Portal

And

FatKoko - who most recently directed the smash hit " Pat and the Gymnast"

What are some of your favorite outtakes - and no Kyle - you can't nominate yourself :)

Of course, since I decided not to record it I wanna watch a replay.
Are they gonna air one ?

I’m watching the LSU - USC game and while very early in the game (end of 1st Q), the USC defense looks much better than recent years. Tackling is much better and more physical up front. If that turns out to be the case this year, that could be a major factor in the B1G this season. They are going to have a good offense and score points.

Brown and Monongai did it Thursday…who were the last two?

@AreYouNUTS i know you’re very interested in seeing through the age old tactic of using a medical issue to cover up the reason for your resignation.

Print it, frame it, hang it in the Louvre.
Side note- Akron is dead last.

I am a previous 15 year season ticket holder and current basketball season ticket holder. I bought 4 tickets in section 109 row 2 for the Howard game for $2.50 a piece plus the $4 a piece StubHub fee. The digital tickets were delivered by the Rutgers Ticket Office email via “Dynamic Pricing Partners 3.”

Yes I spent money once in the stadium, and that makes sense, but what about all the other people on 109 that paid full boat for this last game.

I don’t know the answer, but I know this isn’t right and Rutgers is screwing over season ticket holders.

Good article, excerpted below, since it's behind a paywall. We all know Gavin was challenged with his throwing accuracy and hoped that AK would be an upgrade and at least against Howard, he was, with a 63% completion rate (and a few drops in there or it would've been 70+%, plus he was also generally hitting receivers in stride which is a big improvement). He also ran effectively several times and you could see him going quickly through his progressions and moving well in the pocket. As Politi said, he wasn't flashy, as we really didn't throw any deep balls (wish we had tried one or two), but he was very efficient and safe, which is something we all know Greg likes. Will be interesting to see how he does against better teams.

As Matt Millen said at the end of the game after praising AK's accuracy several times during the game, noting that it was an upgrade over GW's accuracy, "They have a passing game in NJ - that's going to make a big difference."

But if you wanted to see fireworks from this new-look Rutgers offense, well, you’re going to have to check back next weekend. Even then, don’t hold your breath. The Scarlet Knights dominated Howard along the line of scrimmage in a 44-7 victory, with running back Kyle Monangai carrying the ball 19 times for 165 yards and touchdown.

If you wanted efficient, you were happy. If you wanted flashy ...

“We’re not, like, Barnum & Bailey over here,” Schiano said when asked about the vanilla approach to the season opener. “We kind of do what we do.”

In other words, get used to the bread-and-butter approach. Athan Kaliakmanis, in his first start for the Scarlet Knights, completed 15 of 24 passes for 147 yards and three touchdowns. That completion percentage — a tidy 63 percent — would have been the second best all season for the Scarlet Knights in 2023, when quarterback Gavin Wimsatt was college football’s least accurate passer.

But Kaliakmanis attempted only a single pass downfield during the game. Given that the Scarlet Knights added a much-heralded transfer receiver in Dymere Miller, who caught four passes for 37 yards and a touchdown, that was disappointing. Rutgers led just 17-7 at halftime, with one of its touchdowns coming on a 52-yard interception return from defensive back Eric Rogers.
