PISCATAWAY, N.J. — Rick Mantz thinks he has the best job in the world.
It’s not just because he’s working at his alma mater, or working in college football again for the first time after nearly two decades at the high school level. It’s because of what, exactly, he gets to do on a day-to-day basis as Rutgers’ director of high school relations.
He spends his days calling and texting his old coaching buddies. He sets up social events. He helps plan camps, like the Scarlet Knights’ well-publicized mega-camp at Fairleigh Dickinson University on Wednesday, one also staffed by Ohio State coach Urban Meyer and Temple coach Matt Rhule.
