The Rutgers football program has gotten off to a good start with a number of 2018 prospects now that their attention has turned to the next incoming class. One such prospect is Zihir Lacewell, a 6-2, 203-pound four-star, who plays linebacker, safety and wide receiver, all at a high level.
Rutgers has been recruiting Lacewell since his sophomore year, in large part due to the staff's connection with Tim Barrow, a class of 2017 wide receiver signee, who like Lacewell, attends Tottenville (Staten Island, N.Y.).
Hence, the Scarlet Knights have positioned themselves well early on in pursuit of Lacewell's services.
