They are one of the better programs in the country football wise. They are a prep school that issue scholarships for high school players to play for them and get a better (prep) education.

Everyone kind of cherry picks NJ for their talent. They are a small state but have a lot of prep schools and therefore have a lot of talent. So Cal cherry picked Dwayne Jarrett one year I believe(he was a 5* wr).

Rutger fans get mad cuz top schools come steal their top talent away. Lot of Big Ten schools come and ravage the state. But lots of guys of there want a chance to play in the SEC cuz of our prestige and jump at offers from top SEC schools.

“I have break coming up on the 21st and plan on taking visits then,” Hamilton stated. “I want to get to Virginia and Virginia Tech as I’m going to see my grandmother down in Lynchburg, Va., but right now I don’t have anything else set up.”

“I visited Rutgers a little while back for practice and that was good,” Hamilton explained. “It was there first day of full pads. I sat in on a meeting and we run a lot of the same defensive schemes as we do at Don Bosco because our coordinator went to Rutgers. It’s always great to watch people with the same passion for the game strap up and go at it.”

“They’re definitely a school I like right now and Gary Nova definitely gets in my ear about it. Rutgers has great facilities and as far as their football program, I really like everything about them.”

Picked up offers from Iowa, UVA, & VT. Said he would like to hear from FSU.

FYI, he is the son of Keith Hamilton who played defensive tackle for the New York Giants from 1992 until 2003.

Don Bosco is a top 10 national program every year, ranked # 1 two years ago on Rivals - travel each year and have beaten a school out in Cali twice, St. X of Cincy and Prattville in the last 3 years. A lot of these guys leave NJ b/c they realize Rutgers just isn't big time. Although we pluck a guy or 2 from NJ like Nyshier a couple of yrs ago, Penn State owns the recruits from NJ. Bosco in particular has a strong relationship with Boston Coll, they camp there each year and about 4 guys ended up signing there a couple of yrs ago. Would love a DE like him for this class.

Coach Sirmon visited Hamilton on Tuesday

"I think he's a straight forward guy," Hamilton said. "I like that about him and that's what I look for in a coach. He doesn't just tell you what you want to hear. I'm comfortable with him and got a good vibe in talking to him."

"Basically we just talk about the team and their facilities," Hamilton said. "They are building a new facility down there for my class of 2012 and he's talked with me about their defensive line. He told me what they see in my game and what they think I can become as a player."

"I want a chance to play early," Hamilton said. "Tennessee has told me that I would have that chance and that's all I can ask for. My dream is to play in the NFL and the more I play and earlier I play, the better chance I'll have of realizing that dream."

Hamilton would play early and often at UT.

[ORANGE & WHITE]

Read on VQ that he is attends school at Matt Simms alma mater. Maybe that helps a bit too.

[Midfielder10]

Don Boscoe has alumni at probably every big conference school. It is a prep powerhouse.

I'll take this kid

“Right now, I like Rutgers, Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina,” Hamilton said. “I haven’t fully evaluated all of the schools that have offered me, but those are the ones that stick out right now.”

“I’m going to meet with my coach this week and he’s going to help me set up unofficial visits,” Hamilton said. “We’re probably going to cut it to 10 or 15 soon and start looking at the academics and athletics and how they balance. After that cut, it’s just a matter of time before its 10 to five to a commitment somewhere.”

I really hope we are all over this guy. He seems to be interested, and we have a huge need at DE.

[TheVol_Tihts]

Wow this would be a great pickup, one of my favorite recruits this year. Hope the staff is all over him.
