The Rutgers staff has turned up its pursuit to include 6-2, 195-pound Kerry Martin Jr. out of Capital (Charleston, W.V. ). A three-star safety recruit holding nine offers -- two of which are Power 5 in Rutgers and West Virginia -- Martin hopes to end his recruitment over the next month and a half. Currently, Rutgers sits atop his list, followed closely by two others.
“Rutgers is at the top followed by WVU and Cincinnati,” Martin told NJ.com, Monday.

There are a couple main reasons why Rutgers finds itself on top when it comes to Martin who began praising the institution before fielding any direct questions about the school when I interviewed him Monday.
