Middleton rethinks commitment, likes Rutgers | College recruiting | ajc.com

Kell tight end Will Middleton has backed off his verbal commitment to South Carolina and now considers Rutgers, Indiana and Louisville his top three.

The 6-foot-5, 230-pound senior committed to the Gamecocks in early May, then de-committed in mid-June, deciding to look at other schools.

“I just made my decision too soon,” Middleton said. “I’d really just like have more time to think about my options. There’s a lot to think about when you’re looking at these schools.”

The Gamecocks had already landed the commitment of one other tight end prospect in Justice Cunningham out of South Carolina. Middleton will continue to consider South Carolina, Mississippi State and Auburn through the process. Last season, he caught 25 passes for 350 yards and two scores for the Longhorns.

Don't think he'll be going to Rutgers...
