The highlight of Rutgers' spring game wasn't just a statement moment for the quarterback.

The guy who caught Artur Sitkowski's breathtaking 75-yard touchdown pass proved something as well.

Bo Melton was just getting started with the big play last weekend - he had five catches for 187 yards and three scores, and a drop on a deep ball from Johnathan Lewis could have put him well over 200 yards - but that catch served as the exclamation point for the sophomore wide receiver's sensational spring. When Rutgers returns to practice in August to start the preseason, it's pretty clear Melton will be the Scarlet Knights' No.
