Sitkowski currently ranks as the No. 5 pro-style quarterback and the No. 113 overall prospect for the 2018 national recruiting cycle, according to 247Sports Composite.
While it may seem like a surprising move for a four-star IMG prospect to flip from undefeated Miami to Rutgers, Sitkowski grew up in Old Bridge, New Jersey, a short drive from Rutgers, before transferring to the prep school prior to his senior season. He was also a priority recruit for the Scarlet Knights before committing to the Hurricanes in February.
Rutgers had a need for a second quarterback prospect in its 2018 recruiting class after three-star Sean Chambers decommitted in October. The Scarlet Knights already have a commitment from three-star quarterback Jalen Chatman.
Miami, however, now lacks a commitment from a quarterback prospect in its 2018 class and are expected to make the position a priority leading up to National Signing Day.
