A late offer and commitment for Rutgers may turn one of the more crucial pieces added in its 2018 class.
Jalen Jordan received his offer from the Scarlet Knights in mid-November — two weeks after his IMG teammate and “best friend” Artur Sitkowski flipped to Rutgers from Miami (Fl.).
How much credit Sitkowski deserves for the assist isn’t clear, but the fact is the relationship between Jordan and Rutgers escalated quickly. Jordan officially visited Piscataway on December 8th and committed five days later — a week prior to the start of the early signing period.
