<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Jefferson, the No. 9 quarterback recruit in his class according to Scout.com, is a highly touted Florida quarterback who was also pursued by SEC powers Tennessee, Auburn and LSU. He's big and mobile in the mold of Daunte Culpepper -- another product of central Florida -- running a 4.76-second 40-yard dash with a 6-6, 230-pound frame. He visited many schools but immediately felt comfortable at Rutgers, noting that he didn't get to talk to very many players because he was too busy, but could sense deep down that something about the school was just right for him. </p> "It was fun. I got to meet the coaches and be around the staff and get acquainted with everything," Jefferson said. </p> He also thinks it was the smarter choice for his football career, believing he has the chance to succeed current starter Mike Teel after a year on the bench instead of being in a muddled situation at one of the more prolific SEC schools. </p> "It's just the best fit for me, with the quarterback situation," Jefferson said.</div></p> </p>Link
