May be a 2020 recruit. May be 2019. Highlight tape is spectacular. How many DT running backs do we already have?
2019 Recruiting Class Thread

Haven't seen that, but think there were similar things reported last year with Oweh.
Oweh even said during an interview after early NSD that he didn't sign early, when in reality he did:
“I’m just waiting for my announcement at the Under Armour Game,” Oweh said. “Coach Urban, coach Franklin, coach Spencer, coach Johnson and everybody have been trying to get in touch with me. I did not sign a letter of intent during the early signing period."
Definitely interesting with coaches who may not know a player already signed their LOI with another school, but attempt to reach out to that player still, when that is technically a recruiting violation...
No, he’ll get nothing, and like it! he will hopefully continue contributing vastly to our knowledge of the comings, goings, tweets, and other tidbits surrounding future recruiting classes.
Since we already have a "STOOPID" on the board this would play well.
Smith Vilbert looks like a great athlete for coach Chaos to develop. If CJF can get Cross, Ellies, a good WR and a couple more players there looks to be a good chance for PSU to move into the top 10 in the final rankings. A couple teams not too far ahead already have close to full classes. Auburn, just behind PSU, has lots of room for additions as well. Oh-high-ya also has lots of room, but when I looked over their "prospects" all the top rated ones seem to be favored to land elsewhere, so they may have to fill out any scholarships they want to use with lower rated players......
He’s listed in some sites as 2019 and 2020 class. If you watch his highlights you will see that he is an impressive ball carrier as well as a DT. Looks like he could be DE, DT, or TE. Really moves well. Confusion in class standing comes from his move to USA and acceptance of classes by NCAA.
Yes, he does run well for someone that large. As far as his on field performance, look at the competition. His school plays against other small Christian academies. His technique is raw. But, hey, there are worse things than taking a flyer on athletic ability and size.
Based on my quick math, if we land Nick Cross & Doug Nestor, we’ll end up with 2,569 Rival points, which would likely position us anywhere from 6-8 in final rankings.
Zero confidence in Nester though still should easily land in top 10 when all said and done, Cross would guarantee it.
Rivals was not kind to our current commits in their latest update.
D. Ford - downgraded to a 4*
M. Wilson - downgraded to a 3*
M. Johnson Jr. - downgraded to a 3*
Outside of Cain, most commits saw some drop in their overall rating. Weak sauce.

Houston was downgraded too, and all he did was show interest in us.
Who cares? Rivals is so far behind 247 it's not even funny. The Rivals rankings are significantly biased, and the whole world knows it. Even Kim Jong Un knows it. He heard it from Dennis Rodman.
They need to make entering the portal unconditional. Like Mad Max's Thunderdome. "Two men enter, one man leaves."
Rivals hates us more than BobPSU92 does.
"I was against dropping Ford's fifth star and I think we'll look foolish for having done so because of the type of impact he'll have at Penn State down the road. He may not be a big contributor from the moment he steps foot on campus because he needs to add mass to his frame, but his ceiling is much higher than some think. Ford's ability to affect the game as a runner, receiver, and returner should help him become a focal point of Penn State's attack." - Rivals.com Mid-Atlantic Recruiting Analyst Adam Friedman
– Ford does a lot of things very well but hasn’t progressed as much as we’d like from his junior to senior season. He has solid size but hasn’t gotten much bigger or stronger over the last year and will have to work hard to gain the power to break tackles consistently. We moved him to all-purpose back because he catches the ball so well, but we’re not sure he can be that five-star workhorse we saw as a junior- Mike Farrell
Hey What's the matter with being a cheeseburger eater?Five guys double cheeseburger with lots of raw unions yummy.
Well the dumb Phuck (Michigan Man) Farrell rated Barkley a 4 star.... lol
Luginbill was on ESPNU and said PSU will be #1 in BIG rankings this year. also heard that on Feinbaum when he had analysts talking about rankings. tOSU may move up also as they had a pretty small class. UM stuck with full class so they will drop.
Same supplier as Checker, tastes like Checker.
Meat is identical.
Not edible, which is why they pile on the onions.
I wouldn't count Hairball out. He can always make up something to pull a scholarship....
Figures that you would know... you are the guy who cares the most about star ratings.
No. I'm the guy that doesn't just make shit up.
BTW.... I'd say, if star ratings had a value.... Barkley would have been an unanimous 6 star (at least).
You’re the guy who is FOS, hates recruiting, and jumps in every thread about recruiting.No. I'm the guy that doesn't just make shit up.

4-star Travis Jay, projected as a S, has committed to Florida State. Might this help PSU’s chances of getting Cross?
