Rutgers Football signs over a third of Top 20 New Jersey recruits in 2021 class

On the first day of the 2021 early signing period, Rutgers announced that 23 players officially joined the program. All signings were expected, which included 22 high school student-athletes in addition to Kansas State transfer Joshua Youngblood.

There are no other recruits currently verbally committed to Rutgers in the 2021 class and while it’s unclear how many spots are still available, it’s likely head coach Greg Schiano will add players one way or another for next season’s roster in the coming days and months. He wouldn’t comment on how many spots remained when asked on Wednesday.
