The 2013 Rutgers Scarlet Knights football team represents Rutgers University in the 2013 NCAA Division I FBS football season. The Scarlet Knights play their home games at High Point Solutions Stadium in Piscataway, NJ as a member of the American Athletic Conference.[1] This is the second season with Kyle Flood as the head coach,[2] and last season before transitioning to playing in the Big Ten Conference.

Previous season

They enter after finishing last season 9–4, 5–2 in Big East play to win the school's first ever Big East Conference football championship, sharing the conference title with Cincinnati, Louisville, and Syracuse.[3]

Coaching staff

Rutgers head coach Kyle Flood enters his second year as the Scarlet Knights' head coach for the 2013 season (eighth year on the coaching staff overall). During his first year as head coach, he led the Scarlet Knights to an overall record of 9 wins and 4 losses (9–4) and the 2012 Big East Championship as co-champions with Louisville, Syracuse, and Cincinnati. Flood was awarded as co-Big East Head Coach of the year.[4]

Coaching changes

Departures from 2012

Former offensive coordinator Dave Brock accepted an offer to become the head coach of the Delaware Blue Hens.[5]

Former defensive coordinator Robb Smith accepted an offer to become linebackers coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.[6]

Former tight ends coach Darnell Dinkins "left to pursue other interests".[7]

Additions, Promotions

Ron Prince, former head coach of the Kansas State Wildcats and most recently an offensive line coach with the Indianapolis Colts and Jacksonville Jaguars of the National Football League was hired as offensive coordinator. Dave Cohen was promoted from linebackers coach to defensive coordinator, a position he has held previously with Western Michigan University, the University of Delaware, and Fordham University. Darrell Wilson was hired away from the University of Iowa, where he coached in the Big Ten Conference for twelve years, to coach defensive backs in his home state of New Jersey.[8]
