They Said It

• Rivals Mid-Atlantic Analyst Adam Friedman: “Mack is an athletic player from a very good, local program. He has some really good ball skills and coverage instincts.”

• TKR Film Analyst Alec Simpson: “Elijuwan Mack is a prospect that should bring in a lot of excitement for Rutgers football fans. Listed 6-foot, 185-pounds, he brings solid size at the safety position and with some time in the weight room could develop quickly into an impact player for the Scarlet Knights. When watching the tape, he does a terrific job of tracking where the ball is in the air and making the play on it. He also isn’t afraid to stick his nose in there and fill holes on run plays. The three-star defensive back is a steal for the Scarlet Knights and he is definitely someone to keep an eye on heading into his freshman season next year.”
