Rutgers Football: Backup Quarterback Is The Real Battle

On Monday night, after the first practice of the start of the fourth week of training camp, head coach Chris Ash made the announcement that seemed inevitable for awhile now. Louisville grad transfer and newly appointed team captain, Kyle Bolin, was named the starting quarterback. After taking the majority of the first team reps the past couple of weeks, it seemed pretty clear Bolin would be the choice. Aside from having the most experience of the three quarterbacks in competition for the starting job, Bolin’s key attribute is his accuracy. Rutgers needs the player under center to execute and Bolin showcased strong fundamentals in workouts even before camp began.
