Football Blackshear redshirting.

[superfan01]

What a disaster.

 

[Salvi's Headband]

This is why Ash should have been fired last year.

 

[Steve91562]

This is actually good. Means he'll be back next year. Wasn't he a junior? If he played this full year, I suspect he'd be headed off to the NFL afterwards.

It means he’s redshirting and transferring. He’s too small for nfl.

You live in a fantasy world

at this point... just drop to Div3 and call it a day.. bye B1G.. was nice knowing ya

That would be dumb.

 

[Zachary.Peril]

I’m not understanding this logic. If these guys were to transfer wouldn’t they have to sit a year? Doesn’t it actually make sense to keep the redshirt and use it for the transfer sit out?

 

[Abro1975]

Your bookie probably doesn't know yet, give the 14 , lol

Will that not depend on the identity of the new Rutgers coach? My NFL watching days are long gone, but he's not a tweener, Eric Metcalf type?

You live in a fantasy world

Yes I do, and it's a very nice place to live.

 

[Stem]

Can we red shirt as fans?

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Just forfeit and give everyone refunds

 

[R1776U]

Can we red shirt as fans?

transfer as a season ticket holder to another team.. lol.. Monmouth would do fine

 

[Zachary.Peril]

There will probably be more today, we just won’t know until the game starts.

 

[JRZEER]

He ain’t coming back.

Already got the second bet in at -12

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

How many Maryland or Pen St players are redshirting today?

 

[RUScrew85]

Is this a Team decision or a "Player Decision"? That's the key. One is good for RU, the other means the kid quit.

 

[ScarletteK80]

Me thinks this might just be the lowest I can see this program falling. I've been around a long, long time, and this is just very, very sad.

Some of you lack fortitude in a big way. Frankly Blackshear or whomever are completely replaceable. Man up and accept that this is a challenge

 

[R U Crazy]

No way is this a team decision.
Well, I guess we can score zero points with or without Blackshear

 

[RUScrew85]

Captain, how much Fortitude is enough for you? Some of us have been doing this for 50 years.

Take back the kid's access, bill him for school. Adios quitter.

 

[Ru-baby]

Wow asked that yesterday

 

[koolraddad]

Next man up. Until we run out.

 

[Stem]

Should have replaced Ash at the end of last season. Now all this fallout from them waiting. Name a new coach, hit rock bottom and start over. The right coach can recruit his players and we go from there.

 

[Scarlet_Scourge]

He was just on TV warming up

 

[R U Crazy]

Yeah, saw him warming up.
I think the 100 fans in the stadium saw him as well.

 

[Captain Hogleg]

Captain, how much Fortitude is enough for you? Some of us have been doing this for 50 years.

40 years for me. I hate it but you don’t quit. 70 for some members of my family.

 

[cardinal2383]

The law of unintended consequences, and the result of an incompetent AD who not only doesnt know how to hire a head football coach, he doesnt even know how and when to fire the head coach. And I dont want to hear how good of fundraiser Hobbs is. The football program is at an all time low and it's on Hobbs. Plain and simple.

 

[bac2therac]

Yup retard Hobbs had to bring him back

This...terrible by Hobbs...if there was a possibility he blew it majorly

 

[KnightFan]

Can we red shirt as fans?

look at season ticket sales ...already happening

This.

 

[Rhuarc]

Already got the second bet in at -12

Pretty sure you could have safely rolled it all into one bet when the initial spread came out. Are we going to cover at all in any of the games for the rest of the year? Doubtful.

 

[PSU_Nut_rivals17625]

This is why Ash should have been fired last year.

And why you don’t fire a guy after 4 games. This move was beyond incompetent.

 

[rujheyl1]

Who cares. In three years he will be Tosh Riddick. Great player and who knows why he chose to redshirt. New coach, new program, move forward. If they hire the right coach, big IF, and can recruit, you don’t think the right coach can get another scat back with nfl potential? Please. Would you want your kid playing for a lame duck coach coughing up a year of eligibility not knowing who is coming in. He is a great player and hope he stays. If he doesn’t then thank you and have to move forward. He should protect himself and his future for what ever he sees it could be. This is a lost year but we should have another hundred plus. Admire and respect the players representing our university. Character is revealed through adversity. Support those still playing and analyze those that have not quit for next week or next year. Were we going to win the BIG this year? No. Relax with the drama.

 

[rujheyl1]

This board is turning worse than Jersey housewives. Before the year started it was 0-12, 1-11, 2-10, now a young man wants time to decide his future because he doesn’t know who his boss will be while making millions for the university for free, ok education, and needs time to reflect on his future. Trader, quitter, etc.. let’s all calm down. So let’s say he played. Do we beat Maryland? What would we win anyway?

 

[thomasfoolery]

Hate to say it, Rujheyl, but if his skin were lighter, everyone’d be saying the same thing as you.
