Kentrell Rinehart Releases Top Five, Syracuse Makes the Cut

The Orange remains in the mix for a priority running back recruit.

Class of 2025 Columbus (OH) Bishop Ready running back Kentrell Rinehart released his top five schools on Saturday. They were Syracuse, NC State, Minnesota, Indiana and Kentucky. 

"These are the 5 programs I'll be putting my 100% focus on going forward," Rinehart said in a social media post. "My recruitment is still open to everyone but these are the 5 that have put it all out there and making sure I know how much they want me. I plan to OV (official visit) at all of these programs." 

Rinehart recently took an unofficial visit to Syracuse and it went extremely well. In fact, he put the Orange in his two top afterwards. 

"Didn't know what to expect," Rinehart said. "Never really heard of Syracuse until coach Brown got hired and started making big hires and landing some real good players. Then getting to campus and seeing the energy they bring and how much they actually want me to come play there left me in awe."

Rinehart is rated a three star prospect by 247Sports. The other recruiting services have not evaluated him to date. In addition to Syracuse, he holds offers from Akron, Bowling Green, Indiana, Kent State, Kentucky, Marshall, Maryland, Minnesota, NC State, Ohio, Purdue, South Florida, Toledo, Western Michigan and others.
