One of the top recruits for Rutgers football is Korey Duff Jr., a wide receiver from Long Island. On Sunday, Duff reeled in a pretty big honor.
Competing at the Under Armour camp in Orlando, FL, Duff was named the MVP of the wide receivers group. It is an impressive award for Duff to go down to Florida, compete and then be named the top at his position group.
There is a lot to like about Duff, who checks in at 6-foot-5 and 210 pounds. A class of 2024 recruit, he plays for St. Anthony’s (Melville, N.Y.).
According to 247Sports, he is the fifth-best player in New York and the No. 29 tight end recruit in the nation.
He has a strong offer list that includes Georgia Tech, Maryland, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, Texas A&M and West Virginia.
In 10 games last year, Duff had 42 catches for 995 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns.
