Saturday, Rutgers landed a commitment from three-star defensive tackle Darius Stills, a 6-3, 280-pound senior from Fairmont (W.V.).
Stills took a six-hour drive to campus for Rising Knight Day, where he was accompanied by his brother, Dante, his mother and uncle.
It was originally though his recruitment would take more time, as his mother urged him to take his official visits before making his pledge.
But Saturday, his mom gave the okay.
"I had told my mom that I wanted to commit. At first she was iffy about it, but then she said I could commit," said Stills.
