Interesting that Jordan Thomas' 247 profile records on his time line all the offers he has received, but only 1 visit, and unofficial visit to PSU last April.

Seems kind of strange for the #1 player in NJ. Have to hope he makes his way to PSU in the near future and/or during the Spring practices.

Although they are hard to find in quality and quantity, it seems that the staff is likely looking for 3 DT's in the 2024 class.

I’d say they have to start grabbing 45-55% of the blue chippers in the region!

Shy of hiring a guy who coaches at one of the schools, this is getting your foot in the door.

Sometimes that doesn’t even work. When Schaino returned to Rutgers he hired two guys who were head coaches at the large N Jersey parochial schools for his staff. They produced zilch in top recruits and were recently let go, but then again that’s Rutgres.

Very true. Also, hiring one could alienate the other schools and as you said, then you get nobody.

3 future casts for CB Kenneth Woseley (4 star, #10 in PA) to PSU.

When Speca was asked about the other PA players that he was regularly in contact with and hoping they would join him at PSU Woseley was one of the first he mentioned.

It worked for Michigan and landing Rashan Gary. But to your point, it's Butgers.

Wasn't partridge supposed to go to Rutgers? Anyone know why that deal fell through?
