Elorm Lumor makes history as first Rutgers football commit of Chris Era

The first Rutgers football commitment of the Chris Ash era doubles as a homecoming.

Piscataway High School product Elorm Lumor, who spent the fall semester at Milford Academy in New York, has flipped his commitment from Temple to Rutgers and is set to enroll within a matter of days.

The lean 6-foot-3, 220-pound outside linebacker is rated as a three-star prospect by Rivals.com. He was a 2014 First-Team All-Area selection by the Home News Tribune after counting an area-high 9.5 sacks and 19 tackles for loss among his 34 stops, with an additional seven quarterback pressures and a forced fumble.
