WATCH: What we learned on Day 1 of Rutgers training camp

Two ongoing issues - one here, one in Columbus - a surprise roster addition and the beginning of a quarterback battle dominated talk Friday as Rutgers opened training camp ahead of the 2018 regular season.

NJ Advance Media beat reporters James Kratch and Keith Sargeant were in attendance in Piscataway, as was columnist Steve Politi. Check out the video above to get their thoughts on the day that was as Rutgers officially kicked off its third year under head coach Chris Ash.

Ash is more confident in his personnel heading into his third season, which makes sense considering the bulk of the roster consists of players he recruited after playing the first two seasons with many players left over from the Kyle Flood era.
