Piscataway's Nadir Barnwell staying home at Rutgers

9

Rutgers needs to add depth at corner with a ton of senior defensive backs graduating this season. Assuming Logan Ryan returns, there are a few promising underclassmen, but the numbers are a bit thin there - which is why the news that Nadir Barnwell has chosen to stay home at Rutgers over numerous SEC and Big Ten offers comes as very welcome. It's a position of need, Barnwell adds much needed star power to this class, and he's one of two big Middlesex County recruits this season along with Metuchen guard Dorian Miller. The only possible response to this commit is pure elation.
