Make it 5 for the University of Virginia. That's how many commitments the Cavaliers have received from the state of New Jersey. The 5th verbal came yesterday, when St. Peter's Prep standout running back/inside linebacker Rashawn Jackson chose Virginia over Nebraska, Tennessee, Rutgers and Florida. All had offered.
"Rashawn has committed to Virginia," confirmed St. Peter's Prep Head Coach Rich Hansen. “I think Virginia’s success, their academic reputation, their coaches and the fact that we have a player going there in Mike Brown all played a big part in it.”
