Who says Kyle Flood can't recruit the great state of New Jersey? The top linebacker in the Garden State committed to Rutgers earlier today on a visit to the school.

Rutgers only recently offered Manning, who is also one of the top overall defensive prospects in New Jersey. According to multiple reports, Flood told Manning he could come visit today and commit or the offer would be no good. Manning accepted Flood's offer and became the third linebacker pledge in the 2016 class and joins Jonathan Pollock and Elias Reynolds. Pollock has indicated he will most likely play in the middle so Manning will most likely play on the outside along with Reynolds.
Flood has also indicated that June could be a big month for recruiting. Stick with us for all the updates on Rutgers Football and Basketball recruiting as the season heats up. Should Kyle Flood try to add another linebacker? Check out Manning's highlights and sound off in the comments below!
