Where does the Rutgers Def Line, size wise.... rank in the Big 10?

Just curiuous if anyone knows, without digging? We don't get to the QB against anyone and our run defense is not good. We have injuries, but everyone does. I'm still shell shocked by the way we were manhandled against Wisconsin. I feel like Greg brought in so many Dlineman since her got here. Aside from the offense, this was just the most glaring mismatch on the field.

Rutgers Offense: Lets start spreading the formation

While not exactly what I am talking about.. this is a decent video on beating coverages.. fast, simple.. and the main point is getting in the right formation for teh coverage. Others here have noted that we don't even send guys in motion to reveal is the D is hiding what coverage they will use despite what the D formation looks like.

My main point, borrowed from friend, is that we pull everyone in tight way too often.. run or pass. We need to run from the spread formation.. allow Monangai to beat one tackler rather than three.

I've dug into this one a bit over the past day and a half and I'm told WVU is the team to beat here. They already have his high school teammate in Kelvin Odih committed and they will get him to campus on the weekend of November 3rd and the feeling is that could wrap up his recruitment as he wants to sign during the early period which would be one week after that. He also took an OV to St. Mary's recently, so that would be the other school to watch. Also before anyone asks, this does not effect the recruitment of fellow forward Chris Nwuli.

Butler

This is more of a question for posters who have medical training, especially in sports medicine. Posters have been generally enamored concerning Butler’s work here at Rutgers. Focus usually centers around size, strength, speed and agility, as I see it from reading here. I have no medical training or expertise; however, I wonder if the training includes enough joint and injury protection protocols. Certainly, football is a physical and somewhat dangerous sport, but when a team experiences injury numbers larger than the norm, is it merely happenstance, or can it be mitigated by different regimens. We were so excited for this year, especially from having a good number of experienced juniors and seniors. Although I understand that the season is only half over, and we may be able to turn around from the last two weeks; it seems that our injury list is especially concerning. Not only do these injuries affect team performance, but can follow these young men throughout their lives.

2024 All-WNBA

>Kahleah Copper, Mercury: In her ninth WNBA season and first with Phoenix, Copper ranked third in the WNBA in scoring with a career-high 21.7 points per game. The 6-1 guard-forward had the second-most games with at least 30 points (nine) and was the only player to twice record consecutive games of 30 or more points.<

Army vs. Rutgers Football

I think Rutgers has some of the best fans around and I personally wish that the Scarlet Knights and the Army Black Knights played on a regular basis, similar to Notre Dame-Navy.

Dremel

Just appreciate everything this guy does - a total selfless team player. He deserves to be playing based on last year's performance - and he proved it against Wisconsin. He reminds me of Wayne Chrebet - another tough, quick undersized Jersey guy who nobody (no D1A at the time) wanted to give a chance - yet, just caught everything thrown to him (or near him) and set records at Hofstra - before walking on the Jets and becoming a Pro Bowl caliber player. Not saying Dremel is quite at that level - but damn if he isn't fairly close to that.
