I'm proud to announce that I am officially committing to penn state university. #WeAre
Both 247's rankings and 247's composite rankings have him as a four star. That's good enough for me.247 has him rated very highly. He is a high three, maybe four star guy. Said he was down to UM and U.S. They have him rated around the middle of our commits so far.
That would be great.
I wonder if Franklin is paying a little extra attention to players Maryland wants.
I don't follow recruiting as close as many, but I don't think i ever heard his name mentioned before. I heard it now and that's all the matters!!!!!!!!
I also noticed he is 250. he may be sliding inside as well.
I believe that CJF wants bigger players overall. He has said as much, wanting kids with big frames that can develop. To me, I believe we will see our front 4 get generally bigger than what we have been used to recently. No more 235-240 lb DE's playing, that have been getting pushed off the LOS against the better teams such as tO$u, where in the past we could not effectively stop the run.
And I like the change. Develop 270 lb DE's that can also get after the QB. and supplement the rush with Simmons at LB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He was on my list as "in the battle last" week. I honestly did not expect to win this one. I think the poster above that mentioned Johnson to Michigan is right and that's how this happened. It's crazy because I think Dioubate, Betiku and Gary are all so good you have to continue to recruit them and take them no matter how many other DL you have. This again points to the staff really believing they will get to 25 schollies.
I can't see us taking Chavis too though.
If I were Cam Brown, Shaka Toney, or Hudson and I wanted to go to PSU I would commit now bc no way we take all three of them now.
On that same note, if Rashan Gary wants to wait until March to make his call, I'd think this staff would be very much alright with that.I like the message this sends to penn state recruits going forward as well....sh!t or get off the pot!
Yes, you have an offer, but that doesn't mean it lasts forever. Penn State will be a school with classes chalked full of talent from here on. If you want to be part of something special, forget about the dog and pony show and give your commitment. If you want to wait and end up stuck at a 2nd tier school like Pitt, Rutgers, Maryland, etc..so be it.
We Are!
Maybe true...I just don't know how all that works if they have a class that is full as of signing day and signatures on the line. If that means going the Urban and Harb route by asking kids to leave then I'm not for it. It's a family Franklin seems to be creating here, I don't see him stabbing kids in the back like those morons.On that same note, if Rashan Gary wants to wait until March to make his call, I'd think this staff would be very much alright with that.
Honestly had never heard of him before someone asked about him (today) on our premium board after he claimed he chose you guys over us. Most of us, who follow our school's recruiting pretty closely, never heard of him either (thus the thread on our board) but one person chimed in that he's seen him play and that he is a very good player. The person who said that has some credibility.Welcome aboard...my guess is the Ron Johnson signing closed the door on him at Michigan. Who cares...we'll take him.

Well I could have said that he didn't have a committable offer and that our staff was not activily recruiting him...but that someone who had seen him thought he was a worthy player and thought he would have been a good get. But I thought the way I presented the story was a little nicer.Cool story bro. Glad "one person" who has credibility has heard of him on the Michigan premium board.
He's just a kid who doesn't give interviews. Composite 247 4 star, #73 on the ESPN Top 100 recruits list.

Brutal.After taking all those unknown 2-star camp finds, I can see why you went the way you did.
