2016 ATH talks RU offer, season
Rutgers is letting it be known that Wayne (N.J.) De Paul Catholic is their turf. Spartan seniors Kiy Hester and Justin Nelson have committed to the Scarlet Knights and sophomore's Kareem Walker and Hasise Dubois have already received offers from the local school.
"I got an offer from Rutgers about two weeks ago," said the 6-foot, 180-pound Dubois. "They contacted my coach and asked if I could come down to the campus and they offered me. I think it's a good school. I've got a lot of people to look up to there."

Usually an early offer like this attracts a lot ore attention but that has yet to happen for Dubois.
"I haven't really been in touch with any other schools yet," he said. "Right now I don't have any visits planned. I haven't visited any schools other than Rutgers."
De Paul Catholic has plenty of talent this year and could be in line for a big season.
"We could go undefeated if we stay focused," Dubois said. "I just need to focus on my keys and try to perfect with everything that I do."
Dubois is extremely versatile and can be used a lot of different ways.
"I like to play safety, wide receiver and quarterback," he said. "During the season I see myself playing a lot of wide receiver and safety. Right now we have a division one quarterback so I'm just going to focus on the position that I can get on the field as."
De Paul Catholic opens their season on September 6 against Newark (N.J.) Barringer.
