Rutgers football head coach Chris Ash announced yesterday that Chris Laviano will begin the season as the starting quarterback. As expected, the reaction from fans was about an even split. I previously went into length as to why it’s important for fans to give Laviano a clean slate at the start of this season, but I also understand the reservations of some. Part of the lukewarm response to Laviano being named starter is a natural fear he will not relinquish his spot regardless of performance. However, Ash made it clear yesterday he will be judged on a game by game basis like every other player.
