Saying that the “visit was good,” Dortch saw his weekend official visit as helpful in his relationship with Rutgers.

“I got a better understanding on how the coaches would use me,” Dortch said.

“(Also), my parents saw the facilities and campus.”

Interacting with the Rutgers staff, who Dortch communicates with frequently and regularly, was something that was furthered during the course of the weekend.

“I spent the most time with coach T.J. Thompson but it was great (overall),” Dortch said. “I got to be with a lot of the staff.”

His parents being on campus was a major reason why Dortch wanted to take the official visit to Rutgers.

“They liked how the staff communicated,” Dortch said. “How they would use me and made it clear what my future would look like if I were to commit.”

Dortch said he might possibly take an official visit to Temple or Virginia Tech this summer.

There is some comfort for the recruit when it comes to being on campus. Last September, Dortch took an unofficial visit to Rutgers as well.
