  Rutgers is seeking a huge boost in a beat-up position group in what could be a test case for the future of college football. Linebacker Drew Singleton, who planned to forgo his final year of eligibility to pursue a professional career this offseason, is pursuing a waiver to return to Piscataway for the 2022 season, Scarlet Knights head coach Greg Schiano said Wednesday at Big Ten Media Days. The former Paramus Catholic star's initial application for reinstatement was denied by the NCAA, which was expected, Schiano said. Singleton and Rutgers are appealing the decision. There is no definitive timeline on when they'll hear back. "What was the grand total of what he took? He took training expenses from an agent. And you're not going to let this guy (come back)?" Schiano said. "Here's a guy that wants to come back, provide for his family, he wants to get his master's. He has an opportunity to do that. He's an inner-city Newark kid. And we're going to deny him that right? I hope not. I hope that cooler minds prevail and he's granted this year. He paid the money back immediately. When he decided he was going to come back, he paid the money back." Singleton planned to forgo his final year of eligibility following the 2021 season.

After Rutgers' regular season ended with a 5-7 record and no bowl bid, he began the process of preparing for the NFL Draft, signing with an agent. Then the Scarlet Knights received a last-second bid to the Gator Bowl. While other NFL prospects like Bo Melton and Isaih Pacheco understandably decided to forgo the game to avoid risking injury, Singleton elected to play in the game with just eight days notice. He went on to hurt his ankle in the game, significantly impacting his draft prep, which he "began in a (walking) boot." - Star Ledger
