Famah Toure is certainly trending in the right direction, with an official visit this week to Rutgers football perhaps tipping the scale in favor of the in-state program.
This week, Toure took an official visit to Rutgers. Toure is a class of 2023 wide receiver at Irvington High School (Irvington, N.J.).
In early June, Toure was seen as a near lock for fellow Big Ten program Famah Toure. The On3 Prediction Machine had the Illini at 95 percent and Rutgers at just 2.7 percent.
Now in their most recent update, Toure is at 52.7 percent. Illinois has slipped to 46.1 percent.
According to Rivals, he is a three-star recruit with Power Five offers from Boston College, Duke, Georgia Tech, Illinois, Kentucky, Maryland, Ole Miss, Pitt, Syracuse and Vanderbilt along with Rutgers.

Rivals ranks him as the No. 17 player in New Jersey in this recruiting cycle.
This was a big recruiting week for Rutgers as they hosted several in-state players plus Pennsylvania prospects such as four-star linebacker Semaj Bridgeman and running back Braeden Wisloski.
