Nice article on three key parts of the 2015 team. I especially like some of the quotes about what McDaniels is doing with the offense.

"Most of the tweaks involve the alignment of players. McDaniels shuffled players all over the formation during spring practice, with tight ends lining up in the backfield and running backs motioning out wide."

"However, there are subtle differences that may hint at a fundamental shift away from Rutgers' pure pro style attack to a more multiple set reminiscent of the offense run in Denver. With past Rutgers offenses relying heavily on a fullback and Ray Ransom Loves Brian Leonard Versatility in Blocking, Rushing, and Receiving Fullback of the Year Award-winner Michael Burtonoff to the NFL, it seemed there was a great opportunity for Jacob Kraut, the top fullback in the nation for his recruiting year, to step in as a 4-year starter. However, whispers of the fullback being de-emphasized in spring ball, along with Kraut's transfer out of the program may signal a new direction."
