Savon Huggins: Notre Dame, Rutgers and North Carolina All Vying for 5-Star RB

Posted Jan 15, 2011
Savon Huggins, a 5-star running back, is deciding between Notre Dame, Rutgers and North Carolina as National Signing Day approaches. Huggins has taken his official visits to Notre Dame, North Carolina and Auburn, and his father calls those his finalists, according to a Scout.com report. As he hails from the Garden State, Rutgers is hopeful to land Huggins. However, going up against perennial powers Notre Dame and North Carolina, which have both put together impressive recruiting classes, is not the best bet for a Big East school that went 4-8 last year.
