The Rutgers kicking competition in training camp could have almost as many legs as a performance by The Rockettes.

Andrew Harte has committed to Rutgers as a graduate transfer from Big Ten rival Minnesota, NJ Advance Media confirmed with a source after it was reported by multiple scouting services. He can play immediately will his final year of eligibility.

As he was at Minnesota, Harte will be a walk-on, which means he does not get penalized for transferring in-conference. Rutgers hybrid linebacker Ross Douglas also took an in-conference graduate transfer when he arrived from Michigan in 2016.

An Illinois native, Harte attempted three onside kicks and a PAT during his Minnesota career, which included three seasons (one was a redshirt) under former coach Jerry Kill. The 2014 Big Ten Coach of the Year is in his first season as Rutgers offensive coordinator.

Rutgers is looking for a solution at kicker after David Bonagura was 10-of-14 on field goals and 20-of-22 on PATs last season. Bonagura's limited range led to a long of 41 yards.

After missing all of spring camp due to a back injury, Bonagura faces increased competition from Harte, incoming freshman Justin Davidovicz and Gavin Haggerty. All are walk-ons.

Haggerty came from seemingly nowhere to beat out Jared Smolar during spring camp. Smolar, who announced his transfer intentions earlier this month, and Bonagura shared kickoff duties.

The question is whether Rutgers coach Chris Ash will spend four spots on the max 105-player training camp roster on kickers or if the field will be narrowed down before camp gets underway.

Ash also figures to need two spots for punters, as graduate transfer Ryan Anderson -- who was among the first group of summer session enrollees arriving at Rutgers over Memorial Day weekend -- and returning starter Michael Cintron battle for a starting job.

Harte is the 10th FBS transfer added by Ash in his 18 months on the job.

Rutgers does not face Minnesota in 2017.
