With quarterback being the position schools look to secure first throughout each recruiting cycle, the Rutgers staff is in full pursuit of its next signal caller.
And in their efforts have taken their attention 3,000 miles across the country, where 6-foot, 185-pound three-star Re-al Mitchell operates at St. John Bosco (Bellflower, Cal.).
Mitchell visited Rutgers Friday flanked by his father, and left campus with Rutgers a member of his top 5 schools.
"Rutgers is cool. I would say my top schools are pretty even in the last stretch of my recruiting process," Mitchell told NJ.
