Notable Quotes:
OL Saleem Wormley (Smyra - DE): “Rutgers is in my top three with Notre Dame and Penn State. Rutgers is a legitimate place I’m really considering going too. I just like the coaching staff and everything they have there.”
DE Jason Blissett (Poly Prep - NY): “I’m visiting Maryland on June 1st and Rutgers on June 9th. I’m just looking forward to hanging out with the staff and some of the players again at both schools.”
Gill St. Bernards Head Basketball Coach Mergin Sina on Paul Mulcahy: ““Rutgers is getting a unique kid who works his butt off in every aspect of his game. Any time he has a weaknesses in his game, he does whatever it takes to fix it. I know he’s ranked somewhere in the 130’s right now, but I find it extremely hard to believe that there are 130 better players than him. This kid is going to be a special player.”
