Quote:Four-star Episcopal (Alexandria, Va.) defensive back Patrice Rene, has committed to Rutgers over Ohio State, becoming the nineteenth member, and third defensive back, to join Rutgers' recruiting class of 2016.
"The thing about Rutgers is they've been recruiting me since the get go," Rene told NJ.com, Friday. "They were like my third offer. And I've had the opportunity to build a really solid relationship with all the coaches and kind of get to know them a lot. So I really felt at home with them.
"And also, it's just a family atmosphere that they have there. And I have a lot of family in that area, New York. My grandmother lives less than an hour away from Rutgers, so that had a lot to do with it, as well. And I'm just excited about what they're doing, being in the Big Ten. What coach Flood is doing, I think he's on the right path and they're on to bigger and better things. I definitely was excited to be a part of that and wanted to help them achieve their goals."
So excited this kid is coming to the Banks!!
