Rutgers football held a BBQ for recruits today and head coach Chris Ash received good news, as 3-star athlete EJ Turner from Georgia committed to the program. Todderick Hunt of NJ Advance Media reported it first.
Turner had offers from both Syracuse and West Virginia, as well as over a dozen more, including Kansas State and Cincinnati, per 247 Sports. Turner plays primarily wide receiver, as well as free safety.
