Pennsylvania 3-star athlete Raheem Blackshear signs to Rutgers on national signing day

Rutgers strikes again in the skill position department on signing day earning a signature from one Pennsylvania's most explosive athletes.

A former Temple and Michigan State commit, Archbishop Wood's (Warminster, Pa.) Raheem Blackshear claims a 4.4-second forty-yard dash and also runs the 100 (10.6) and the 200 during track and field season.

His speed and diverse skill-set earned him a Rutgers offer in December and comparisons to superstar Janarion Grant, despite Blackshear being committed to Temple at the time.
