Bo Melton has played in all four games this season for Rutgers as a true freshman. While he has registered only one reception from his wide receiver position, Melton is playing on a variety of special teams units.
He admittedly has endured his share of ups and downs on the playing field through Rutgers' 1-3 start. That's not unusual for a freshman.
But when times are tough, Melton is quick to lean on his father for advice.
Melton's father, Gary, was a productive Rutgers football player three decades ago, recording 70 receptions for 940 yards and seven touchdowns in addition to serving as a standout kick returner from 1989-91.
