Big 4-star Philly RB Sam Brown is Rutgers’ top out-of-state target: Scarlet Knights, Cavaliers coming on strong | Q&A Updated Feb 24, 2021; Facebook Share Rutgers’ 2022 recruiting class is ranked 10th in the country and third in the Big Ten but could improve if the staff can close out its top out-of-state target. La Salle College (Wyndmoor, Pa.) running back Sam Brown is a 6-2, 205-pounder, comparable to Wisconsin freshman Jalen Bergen, who Rutgers recruited hard but lost in the end. A Mount Airy (Philadelphia) native, Brown is a four-star recruit with more than 20 scholarship offers. And, after examining his high school film, could have 10 more.
