What do we have to be thankful for? (other than the fact that we're not from West Virginia)

********
Before Thanksgiving weekend ends, I just want to say a quick thank you for (and to) this year's crop of true Rutgers freshmen.
********
No matter what happens with Tom Savage and Mohamed Sanu (and De'Antwan Williams and Mark Harrison and Antwan Lowery and the others) in the last two games of the season against the West Virginia Mountaineers and the bowl opponent to be named later, we have seen what looks like the beginning of a bright future for Rutgers football in 2009.

Next Saturday is Senior Day. The freshmen will see the tradition they have to live up to, and what they should try to surpass in their next three years On the Banks. (And though we wish him continued success in the NFL, it's just too bad that Kenny Britt couldn't have been celebrating his Senior Day against West Virginia next Saturday at noon.)
