Sean Fitz had lowered him on PSU's interest chart about a month ago. Plus Brandon Smith is now listed as an ILB. I think this was brewing and I'm not sure Franklin is that upset.
If PSU lands Smith, the loss of Lee wont be that significant. Who knows, Smith may in fact be a silent verbal and PSU took their foot off the throttle on Lee's recruiting. Also some folks feel Lee may be done growing. You dont t see too many 6' MLB. Alfano will be at PSU this weekend. Alabama thinks after his visit they are in the lead. Hopefully dandy11 is right.
