On the Banks, a Rutgers Scarlet Knights community

Center Greg Lewis took a visit to Rutgers last weekend and came away impressed. Some reports say the visit went well. Even other reports say that Lewis has narrowed his choices to either Rutgers and USF are his final two. Either way, it appears Lewis' father is impressed with Rice and Co. "The one thing I was impressed with was Mike Rice," Lewis Sr. said. "I think his sense of humor and his honesty especially stood out to me. And that allowed me to feel comfortable. … From a parent’s perspective, the location is just two-and-a-half hours away from home, close enough but not [so close where you can] come home when you hit that wall as a freshman. Most important is the opportunity that was presented to Greg to play as a freshman. I think that’s crucial when it comes to his development." More news as it comes.

Rochester, NY linebacker Quentin Gause finally went public on Friday, after being a rumored silent commitment for weeks. He was followed shortly thereafter by another linebacker, Kevin Snyder from Mechanicsburg, PA. If all three end up at linebacker, Rutgers would have a solid trio for the class.

Via his Twitter account, junior college guard Graham is coming to Rutgers (someone send him the Block R logo, stat!) This move should help alleviate the depth issues at guard following Mike Rosario's transfer, although Rutgers is still paper thin up front.

F Cleveland Melvin chose to commit to DePaul (ouch), but Rutgers basketball landed a commitment from Poole later in the day. He joins class of 2010 signees F Gil Biruta and G Austin Carroll
