Future of RU Qb's looks bright

The Star-Ledger spotlighted the QB position at Rutgers for this upcoming season. Mike Teel is obviously the starter but what makes this article interesting is the attention they draw to true freshman DC Jefferson.

He has freakish size (6-6, 240), he's a terrific athlete and his arm is probably the strongest in the history of the program (and that's after practicing less than two weeks). He flicks the ball and it flies 60 yards.

This is a very warming thought for Rutgers fans. Within a few years, when big time recruit Tom Savage gets to campus, this could be the biggest QB battle ever at Rutgers. While it is a few years away and Schiano has a few QB's ahead of these guys on the depth chart it is a very exciting thought.
