The Rutgers Scarlet Knights' uniforms did not feature a lot of scarlet under their former bad coach, Kyle Flood. It's a new era in Piscataway, however, and Chris Ash's men will have a new look in 2016.

Rutgers unveiled new athletic uniforms Tuesday. They're simple and safe, which thankfully means Rutgers avoided another P.R. disaster.
