During Rutgers Media Day on Sunday, Chris Ash was asked during his press conference about when he plans to decide on the selection of captains for the 2017 season. Here is what he had to say:
“Still a set number. We'd like to have four. But we could go up, as many as six, if we needed to. But we will have a player vote on captains this Wednesday. And that will be really about the midpoint of training camp and have a pretty good idea of who we can count on, who the players trust and who is dependable and who can be our best leaders and we'll vote on that.
