As part of our Rutgers men’s basketball season preview, we are doing profiles are on every player on this season’s roster. We started with the walk-on’s and today we examine guard Jacob Young. The former 4-star recruit played the previous two seasons for Texas before transferring to Rutgers this past spring. He will sit out this season due to transfer rules, but he can practice with the team and has two years of eligibility remaining. Young is an intriguing addition for the program. Let’s discuss his potential impact, both this season and beyond.
Young will give head coach Steve Pikiell a true gunner on the offensive end.
