Rutgers football is hosting Judah Pruitt this week.

Three-star offensive lineman Judah Pruitt is set to visit Rutgers football on Tuesday.

Pruitt, ranked the No. 27 player in New Jersey according to 247 Sports, has a number of Power Five offers. The class of 2024 recruit from Shabazz High School (Newark, N.J.) holds offers including Boston College, Old Dominion, Syracuse and Temple as well as Rutgers.

His first offer came in January from Syracuse. Rutgers was his second Power Five offer in late January.

He is a 6-foot-5, 315-pound interior offensive lineman. In March, he visited Boston College. Tuesday will be his first chance to check-out Rutgers this spring.

Pruitt also plays defensive tackle for Shabazz, a program that went 5-6 last season.

“What I’m hoping to see (Tuesday) at Rutgers is the linemen being physical as ever,” Pruitt told Rutgers Wire. “And things with Rutgers are going amazing right now – they show mad love.”

And mad love, Pruitt says, is “that they’re texting me all day, and making sure I’m good.”

Gabriel Winowich updates his recruitment: ‘I’m absolutely still 100 percent committed…nothing that could change that’

Rutgers football recruiting: Gabriel Winowich excited about his commitment, even a month later.

Gabriel Winowich remains the top-ranked commit to Rutgers football’s 2024 recruiting class. The standout running back from Michigan is an intriguing member of this recruiting class.

And, he is fully committed to the Scarlet Knights.

A four-star out of Detroit Country Day (Franklin, MI), Winowich is a four-star according to 247Sports, where he is ranked the No. 194 recruit in the nation. He gave his verbal to Rutgers in January following a visit to the program.

That hasn’t changed over the past month he tells Rutgers Wire.

“Yes I’m absolutely still 100 percent committed and there’s nothing that could change that,” Winowich told Rutgers Wire.

“And yes I’ve been recruiting a lot of kids to come join and with the help of A.J. (Surace) we’ve been really able to reach out to a lot of kids.”

Rutgers football got a major boost earlier in the month with the commitment of quarterback A.J. Surace. The quarterback from Notre Dame Prep (Lawrenceville Prep) is the top-ranked quarterback in New Jersey.

He has said that he will be an active recruiter and a leader of the class.

“Well I was pumped up after I heard about his commitment and I was just really excited about the great start we’ve had for this class of 24’ so far,” Winowich had previously told Rutgers Wire.

“I really think his commitment is going to help spike this class a lot and it allows us to reach out to more kids and help build this class up. Looking forward to what the future holds!”

Rutgers currently has three players committed in the 2024 recruiting class:

  • Kenny Jones, a three-star offensive lineman from New Jersey
  • A.J. Surace, a three-star quarterback from New Jersey
  • Gabriel Winowich, a four-star running back from Michigan

Four-star Gabriel Winowich excited by Rutgers football quarterback commit A.J. Surace

Gabriel Winowich talks about the impression he has of Rutgers football quarterback commit A.J. Surace.

Rutgers football added a third commitment to the 2024 recruiting class with the addition of quarterback A.J. Surace. For Gabriel Winowich, this is a big addition to the class.
The top-ranked quarterback in New Jersey, Surace is a three-star who is ranked the eighth-best player in the state according to 247Sports. He had a strong offer list that included programs like Boston College, Duke, Indiana, Michigan State, Northwestern, Pittsburgh, Tennessee and Temple among others.
For Winowich, the addition of Surace was huge news. A four-star running back out of Michigan, Winowich committed to the Scarlet Knights in January following a visit on the campus.
Surace makes it three commitments to Rutgers for this recruiting class, all on the offensive side of the ball (offensive lineman Kenny Jones committed to Rutgers in November).
“Well, I was pumped up after I heard about his commitment and I was just really excited about the great start we’ve had for this class of 24’ so far,” Winowich told Rutgers Wire this week.
“I really think his commitment is going to help spike this class a lot and it allows us to reach out to more kids and help build this class up. Looking forward to what the future holds!”
