I have a confession to make. I gave up on Johnny Langan after last season.
I didn’t think we’d ever see him play meaningful minutes in a Rutgers football game again. His toughness was unquestionable and the job he did last season was admirable. I just didn’t think he had the talent, specifically the arm, to be a FBS quarterback, let alone one for a power five program. While Langan will never set any passing records, his ability as a football player is his greatest asset.
Our David Anderson wrote a heartfelt tribute to Langan and Nunzio Campanile before this season for what they brought to the program during a dark period before Schiano’s hiring.
