The Rutgers men’s basketball program have been making a surprising run at adding a couple of players to the roster for next season, hosting Canadian wing Eugene Omoruyi and Baylor grad transfer center Chad Rykhoek. However, the coaching staff still has one eye on the future as well, as they hosted four local players yesterday from local AAU powerhouse the NY Rens.
The NY Rens featured point guard Jose Alvarado this past summer, who is still being heavily pursued by Rutgers. This program was a top performer on the Nike EYBL circuit and it’s a wise move by head coach Steve Pikiell to make an effort on the future of the Rens program.
