On the same day spring practice began, the Scarlet Knights added another member to this year's recruiting class, as Reedley College cornerback Kobe Marfo Jr. announced his commitment to Rutgers this afternoon.
"By the grace of God I will be furthering my education and football career for the next 3-4 years at Rutgers University," Marfo wrote in his announcement.
The relationship between Marfo and the Scarlet Knights bloomed quickly. The cornerback was offered on March 10, and was on campus for a visit on Monday. Evidently, the visit went so well that Marfo was confident enough in his decision to commit today.
