One response to “Whitehall RB Saquon Barkley issues verbal declaration to Rutgers University”
A good signing for Rutgers given that Rutgers commit Robert Martin (Harrisburg) tore his ACL against Bishop McDevitt in the first game of the season. Obviously, he’s out for the rest of his senior season. Too bad too. Great talent.
