Boom! We Are…on a massive roll! Welcome Nick! You will LOVE this choice!
 
 
Just watched the tape...the idea that there are 5 running backs in the nation "better than" this kid is comical. I saw their tapes also and not one of them is as good as this kid. I won't say it yet, but it might very well be that TWO generational running backs played at psu in this generation.

10.86 100 this season as a junior while weighing at or slightly over 200 lbs. This isn't quite as fast as Journey ran as a junior (10.73 to win the championship), but then Journey may not have weighed even 190 lbs as a junior.
As a senior, Saquon Barkley did not run a sub 11 second 100, at least in any official track meet.
 
Wow! Offers from Alabama, Ohio State, USC, Michigan, Florida, Florida State, and Wisconsin. Of course he got the obligatory useless offer from pitt. Nick is the real deal.

Pitt offers don't count. That's juco.

Funny. My secretary’s son, Jordan, plays football at Mifflin and probably is Singleton’s best friend. She has shared tidbits about his recruiting to the extent Singleton talked about it. Told her last Friday that I saw Nick was announcing today and she said she would have to ask her son about it. I told her since he was making a formal announcement, he probably wasn’t going to share his choice with even him. Didn’t hear from her over the holiday weekend and was out of the office all day but when I pulled into my driveway a short while ago, there was a text from her about him committing. I will have to ask her if her son knew about his choice before the announcement. Great pick up IMO.
 
Young man has a great future. Congratulations to him, his coaches and his family. Kudos to the football and recruiting staff they are doing a superb job.
 
Lots of articles tonight, but did anyone see how he almost verbled to ND after returning from his visit to South Bend? It could have been one of the writers from here, but I think it was CBS, they had quotes saying he wanted to verbal to ND right after getting home from South Bend, but his parents said he really needed to not make a quick decision, and JF started selling hard. That was about the time several CBs flipped to ND.

This is a Penn State board. Their, not there.
 
I really like the comparison to Journey Brown after watching T Frank's breakdown. Perhaps similar to Etienne, who went from a 5/12 catch RB in his first two years to 37/48 his last two.

He's got that mean, nasty long stride speed and as someone else mentioned, that is reminiscent of LJ or perhaps Kijana Carter. Glad we got this kid to stay.
 
Sure, he can run around & through people, catch, and return kicks. I thin I even saw him throw an option pass. But he apparently can't kick, so, meh.

Seriously, though, welcome to the family young man. I'm looking forward to seeing you perform in the blue and white for several years.

As long as he ends up like Aaron Harrison and stays with his home state, they can publish all the almost would have's they want!

Maybe ND will send someone to knock on his door at midnight like they did a few years back with the kid from NYC. Very stalker-ish.
