Drew Mehringer went on a paintball outing with the Rutgers quarterbacks this summer. Wearing his Scarlet Knights apparel, Mehringer got asked by other paintballers whether he also played for the team.
That wasn't quite as embarrassing as what happened at a football camp earlier this year. After Mehringer ran some players through drills, an opposing head coach asked what he did for Rutgers.
"Uh, I'm the offensive coordinator," Mehringer replied.
It's hard to blame anyone for being confused. At just 28 years old, Mehringer is the youngest coordinator in the Power 5 this season, and he doesn't look all that much older than some of his players.
