There is a mountain of things you can say about Rutgers athletics. Most of them are bad.
The Scarlet Knights have solid men's lacrosse and wrestling programs, their women's soccer team finished above .500 and women's lacrosse team went 8-8. Every other athletic program finished either third-to-last, second-to-last or — you guessed it — last in the Big Ten over the course of the 2016-17 school year.
That includes the football team, led by former Ohio State defensive coordinator and safeties coach Chris Ash. He went 2-10 in his first season as head coach, including a 0-9 mark in conference play.
