Both statements are very true and I do wish him nothing but the best!!! Rutgers, Syracuse, Temple, UConn, UMass IMO are all a waste of time. I even think BC or Pitt would of been better fits. I assume the whole reason to move to FBS (Jared Verse) is to have a shot at the NFL. The problem is the NFL isin't beating down the doors of Rutgers for their next franchise QB. In fact I cant think of a single QB to make an NFL roster from Rutgers. Matt Ryan Boston College, Kenny Pickett from Pitt, Donvan McNabb (a long time ago) from Syracuse are the only ones I can think of. I think he would have had just a good a shot coming from UA as he does from Rutgers.
It will be very different/difficult once he lines up against Michigan, Ohio State etc. with an OL from Rutgers as opposed to lining up against Richmond or Rhode Island. If he flops at the Big 10 level the scouts will know RIGHT AWAY and then he may be passed over. At least if he stayed at UA and rewrote the record books NFL scouts would be intrigued and either draft him or offer him a FA contract with the notion that he played "small school" football and unproven against top competition but lets see how he does against NFL players in camp and preseason games.
I really hope he takes the Big 10 by storm!!! GOOD LUCK 7!!!!
