Big LB Rising After Quick Start

Robert Braxton of Hoboken, N.J. is on a roll after the first two games of the season.

His team is ranked 17th in the state and he already has six sacks and 26 tackles. And, although he’s only ranked 52nd in the country at inside linebacker, he continues to rise on the charts of many. At 6-foot-2 and 255 pounds, Braxton could play a variety of positions on the defensive side of the ball in college.

"I'm being recruited as an inside linebacker by all of the schools interested,” he said. “At this time my favorites are Rutgers, Boston College, Penn State, Michigan State and Minnesota. They are the five I would visit, but I like Rutgers, BC and Penn State the best."

Robert has no offers at this time but he says that all of the schools are waiting for his SAT results.

“All of them tell me that they will offer as soon as I get my results. I have so many schools calling every night."

Robert has no official visits set but was at the Rutgers-UConn game this past weekend.
