Here's Why Manny Rojas Has Suitors Like The Hawkeyes, Wolverines & More

Manny Rojas immediately checked his phone as he awoke on June 15 — and not in the groggy manner that many people begin their mornings.
One of the nation's best upper-weight sophomores last season, Rojas was wide-eyed and excited. After all, this was the day college coaches could begin contacting Class of 2022 recruits.
The Detroit Catholic Central state champion, 32nd on the 2022 Big Board and sixth among those 182 pounds and above, was expecting calls, but this many? Already?
"That first day of college recruiting was crazy," he said. "I had five calls before 7:30 a.m. and then, before I knew it, there were four more. I'd say it's been an average of about three calls a day."
The list of schools showing interest in Rojas includes Iowa, Iowa State, Wisconsin, Michigan, Michigan State, Virginia, Virginia Tech, Purdue, Indiana, and Campbell.

Interesting. Seems destined for a big 10 school. Do we have any kind of an “in” on him?

Metcalf has been recruiting this kid for a long time now. He is a stud.
