Why Rutgers? “Coach Owens and his staff have a long history of developing their recruits into great players and they have an even better history of winning. Those were the two biggest things I was looking for in my recruitment: winning and development. It was everything I was looking for in a program in all aspects great education, great conference and competition, and the staff made me feel wanted. The feeling I got from that visit was nothing like I ever had.”
