You probably thought, if you're a Rutgers fan, that the game in New England was enough good news for the Scarlet Knights.

You probably thought, seeing former Scarlet Knight safety Duron Harmon make the critical interception against the Ravens and get immediately congratulated by former teammate Logan Ryan, was enough positive exposure for one day from the NFL playoffs for the program.

Just wait. It gets better.

This was an actual exchange during Bill Belichick's press conference following the thrilling 35-31 victory for the Patriots, and it's as if Rutgers had sent a video crew to Foxborough to make a recruiting DVD:

So, short of declaring that any young high school player would be foolish not to beg for a Rutgers scholarship, that's as good as it gets from a three-time Super Bowl winning head NFL coach after a game.

Belichick and the Patriots are the best advertisement for Rutgers football — and best of all for the Scarlet Knights, they're still playing.
