Tight Ends coach Scott Vallone is highly credited with earning his commitment, as he and Atariwa built a bond way before his scholarship offer was extended.
“I’ve been in contact with coach Scott Vallone, the tight ends coach for a while now. It started when I went to the Rutgers 7-on-7 with my team last July and he brought me in personally for a workout and to get to know me. From there we kept a good connection,” said Atariwa in a statement to The Knight Report.
Atariwa had offers from Syracuse, Maryland, Wake Forest, Boston College and Michigan State. Syracuse got Atariwa to schedule an official visit along with Rutgers, but with his commitment, it is expected that he will cancel that visit within the coming days. His official visit to Rutgers will be on June 5th.
