Three-star offensive lineman Marlen Bright took an unofficial visit to Rutgers two weeks ago for Junior Day. Turns out that the visit was a big one for the Scarlet Knights, with Bright now having the Big Ten program very much back in the mix in his recruitment.
The ninth-best recruit in New Jersey and the No. 39 offensive tackle in the nation, Bright cut down his recruitment in mid-February with Rutgers failing to make his list of seven. Now after his Junior Day visit, Bright said he ”Definitely felt more love” on this trip to Rutgers. The DePaul Catholic (Wayne, N.J.) prospect was asked by Scarlet Nation if Rutgers made up ground in his recruitment.
”They definitely did,” Bright told Scarlet Nation.
