College football fans might remember his Rutgers team as the one continually ripping away the Big East title …

So ends the season, one of the most disappointing in team history. THE GOOD It’s over. It’s blessedly, mercifully over. Ten straight losses, five straight blowouts, and the end of a sixteen week torture session. Rejoice fans, you get a whole eight months without having to watch Jeremy Trueblood whiff on blocks, Kellen Winslow draw …

They have no identity. The team exists somewhere in between the 48-3 West Coast beatdown and the …
