FB Recruiting 2025 NATIONAL SIGNING DAY CENTRAL

Rutgers Football HC Greg Schiano will speak with the media later today, but before that let’s send our guesses out there.

Who do your guys think will sign first today? Who are you most excited about?

Current Bowl Possibilities

Yesterday was indeed the baddest of bad beats. The bowl possibilities are not as attractive as they were 24 hours ago. But hope lingers on.

Let's start with some OPTIMISTIC ASSUMPTIONS for Saturday:

1) We beat Sparty. This not only improves our record, it gets them out of the way.

2) Minnesota captures Paul Bunyan's Axe; no bowl for Wisconsin.

3) Indiana holds on to its playoff spot. Unless they drop a nasty deuce into the Old Oaken Bucket, I think they will.

IF (big "if") those assumptions hold, then we have seven bowls:
  • Orlando
  • Tampa
  • Charlotte
  • Nashville
  • NYC
  • Phoenix
  • Detroit
And only six teams to fill them:
  • Illinois
  • Iowa
  • Michigan
  • Minnesota
  • Nebraska
  • Rutgers
We wind up in Phoenix at worst. I very much doubt the Pinstripe takes us two years in a row.

BUT if you are a PESSIMIST, which after yesterday is quite understandable, then MSU beats us to attain bowl eligibility, and lands in Detroit. Wisconsin beats Minnesota and pushes everything down a slot. Now there are eight teams vying for seven bowls. Maybe nine, if Indiana slides out of the playoffs. If that happens, I can easily see up in a pre-Christmas at-large bowl against a G5 opponent.

There is still much to play for.

***Ask The Experts — Tuesday (Pre-Signing Day) Edition***

Every week, The Knight Report publisher Richard O’Leary and his team of Rutgers Athletics experts answer questions from Scarlet Knights fans about the any of the athletic programs, their recruiting efforts, or whatever else they might want to know in this thread below. If we don't know the answer, we'll work our hardest to find out the latest and provide the best answer possible.

We will check in on the thread all day long to answer whatever questions you have!

Mods: question on QB

So let’s assume that AJ becomes primary backup beating out Ajani. Do they do the same they did with Gavin and allow him to jump into the portal (let him know in advance he’s not second). If he does go in the portal then what do you think we do? I know we have Athan and AJ but not much insurance behind that and the only other scholarship QB is Ashenfelder. Not that it’s a huge worry just curious on your thoughts.

Holy smokes!!!

So, over the years I have got my balls broken over me saying Cooperman was leaving...he left.Then I said Campolattano was coming here and got laughed at
...I was right.The I predicted my shitliner Suriano was leaving Penn State and coming to Rutgers,got hammered for that...he came here. Just got off the phone with my insider info buddy.Apparently one of Slingblade Sandersons top dogs on the team is jumping ship and coming here.I also heard that a top dawg at head bigger than torso Brands Iowa shithole is done there and coming here.These guys are the top of the heap ladies and gentlemen and you are gonna shit a sextuplet size bomb in your pants when they come here. Just sit tight.
