2023 New York WR Dylan Braithwaite commits to Rutgers Football
Rutgers Football has landed a commitment from 5-foot-10, 175-pound speedster wide receiver Dylan Braithwaite today out of Holy Trinity High School (NY).
“I always had love for the program,” Braithwaite told TKR. “So I had a meeting with Coach (Greg) Schiano and it was amazing. Just listening to the way he thinks, how he does things along with why he does it and how it develops success really made me want to be apart of the program.”
Rutgers is a program that has been all over the local star for a while now and offered him almost immediately after a strong camp performance this past Wednesday night in Piscataway.
“I was stunned when he offered, I was holding back tears,” said Braithwaite. “I was overlooked for so long because people thought I wouldn’t be able to play in the Big Ten because of my size and I proved them wrong last night at camp. When I told the staff of my commitment, coaches (Damiere) Shaw, (Scott) Vallone, (Greg) Schiano and my pops all jumped up in joy. We had a little celebration in his office for the decision and coach Schiano’s birthday.”
The Long Island, NY native is very excited about his decision and can’t wait to put his stamp on the Big Ten Conference.
“Rutgers is on the uprise in the Big Ten and I want to be apart of that for the next four years,” he said. “I’m ready to run all over the the conference and put my name on the map.”
