Being located close to New York City is always part of Rutgers' recruiting pitch, but rarely is the school's proximity to the Big Apple the reason a prospect takes a visit On The Banks.
That was the case with one of RU's top wide receiver targets in St. Louis (MO) Cardinal Ritter's Fredrick Moore, though, as the 3-star prospect stopped by campus on Sunday while already planning to be in the area this weekend.
"I came with my two brothers," Moore told The Knight Report. "We went to New York City for the Gervonta Davis fight (on Saturday). It made sense, while we were there to head down to Rutgers on Sunday."
"The campus is very big. I like how organized their campus is. They have like five campuses, it's really big and that stood out to me. I didn't realize how close it was to New York. They were telling me how their business program is strong because their network is so close to New York City. That stood out too."
