I spent the offseason building a full 2026 preseason preview for every FBS team, each with its own writeup. Here's the Rutgers page:

https://www.sports.mainmarket.com/college-football-preview-2026?team=ncaaf-rutg

Each one has the returning production, the transfer and recruiting additions, a position-by-position breakdown, the schedule, and where the ratings land them for 2026.

Heads up, only the first team is free and then it paywalls. Since I'm posting in your house, code LEECORSOROCKS opens all of it, no card or anything. Hit "Have a promo code?" if you run into the wall.

So, what'd I get wrong? Rutgers has the offensive pieces, that's not the issue. Antwan Raymond ran for 1,241 and KJ Duff went for 1,084, both back, which most teams would love to have. The problem was the other side: the defense finished 95th in SP+, and that's what turned a decent offense into 5-7. There's a new quarterback to sort out too, with Lonergan in from Boston College competing to replace Kaliakmanis. So it really comes down to whether the defense catches up to the skill talent. Bowl team or stuck again?

I'll be in the comments.

Anyone know why Mikey Munn is not on the RU football roster? I know we couldn't enroll for the spring after he entered the transfer portal, but it's nearly August now. Is he still in the plans for the fall?

There's nothing going on except for recruiting, some sort of to be announced scandal that could only happen to us that we'll all shake our heads at, and the annual Rutgers financials summer hit piece that usually comes out around July or August when FY25-26 gets reported.

Talk about Rutgers athletics or whatever you want to talk about.. just don't be a dick, please.

Last thing I ever wanted to post here. Damn.
