OK so UD has their grad student transfer QB, 2 years eligibility remaining. According to the Winston Salem article above 2nd string last year and 4th string coming out of Spring ball for ASU. But I'm sure this guy will be an upgrade and likely be the starter, no?

I wasn't sure the Hens were still playing football.

What little he played in 2015-2016 he was a pretty effective passer and runner. I hope he'll do a good job with the Hens.

He's probably just looking for a marketable degree. Can't blame him really.

Let's see. Pick a ranking system.
Forbes?
https://www.forbes.com/top-colleges/#5ccbf25d1987
Delaware - 137
UMass-Amherst - 205
Appy - 379
Or you could try everybody-gets-a-trophy US News where they break it down to a million different regions and school types so nobody gets their feelings hurt. Hey look! My school is #1 in the "schools built on a hill that have a track around the football field" category!
But if you want an honest unfiltered top to bottom, Forbes is the ticket.

I'm obviously with you on this, but that Forbes list has at #2 (after Stanford) a school I've never heard of.

Not to be a cynic (!) but FBS is a 'hard-count' on grants-in-aid. The FCS: not-so-much.
My understanding in FCS is that partial grants may be utilized -- let's say 55 full grants plus 16 half-grants complies with the *63* requirement, even though that covers 71 players. (And -- this is without getting into the Ivies and other 'non-grant' football aid ...) 'Partials' are not gonna happen in FBS with a hard 85 grants.
AND, not sure of the current legal technicalities but back in my day (early '70s) even 'full-boats' were essentially one-year grants that rolled-over until you graduated.
SO --- playing the cynic here, in the Big Bidness of FBS, the writing was on the wall and it was simply time to move on (possibly with a little push ... )

If Caruso isn't the starter it'll be another shitshow in Newark. Everyone knows Walker can't get the job done.
