Message: [QUOTE="JJReddawg, post: 709898, member: 226"] Rutgers bought (or should I say hired) that commitment: "But the fact that Blacknall's former high school assistant coach, Cody High, has been hired as a Rutgers assistant/player development coach should only help further Rutgers' chances of landing him, right?"I honestly don't know, right now," said Blacknall. "I haven't really touched base on that. All I can say is it just gets me thinking and it opens up another opportunity."Blacknall addressed the strength of his relationship with High who also coached Blacknall's track and field team."We have a very close relationship. Obviously, he's my coach and he's a very good family friend. And we've just been through a lot together," said Blacknall. "He was also my track coach. So, we went through season after season after season, and saw each other every day for years. It's a big brother-little brother kind of thing." [/QUOTE]
