With July on the horizon, Rutgers finds itself square in the mix with three running back prospects. In-state target Josh McKenzie and Coatesville's (Pa.) Aaron Young, brother of incoming freshman safety Avery Jones, have long been priorities. But another name has entered the conversation.
Just over two weeks ago, following an Ohio State camp attended by the Rutgers staff, an offer was extended by Ash to Warren G. Harding (Warren, Ohio) running back Kay'Ron Adams, a 5-10, 190-pound rising senior holding a total of 10 offers. But of those 10 offers Rutgers is the three-star's sole Power 5 option.
