Psu has leg up there, but I wouldn't count school in Tallahassee out until he puts ink on paper. They had 6 early enrollees play in their spring game. And Menet is a very bright guy that falls into that category. If they could pull it off, fsu's future left side could have him and Andrew Boselli. That's scary.

Multiple Penn State recruiting targets stood out at Sunday's Rivals Camp. Gee, didn't they have chairs for these guys?

Reports on Twitter that PSU recruit Miles Sanders wants to visit other schools. Just rumors as of now.

I said about a month ago Miles Sanders probably won't attend Penn State, still doubt he ends up there. Never thought Pitt was a landing spot, but they will be in the running.

Pitt has some interesting developments with the WPIAL kids, I expect some of the better ones to stay home when it's all said and done.

Apparently Hudson, Hamlin, Sanders and others were all guests of coach Narduzzis to watch the fight over the weekend.

Sanders had to back out at the last minute but...

Hamlin and Central catholic teammate Bricen Garner was there. Kazeon Pugh from Aliquippa was there. Pitt commitment Brandon Ford, the top 3 city league players the Jackson twins and Coleman from Brashear.

Plus two 4 stars from the 2017 class Ford from Seton LaSalle and Josh Lugg from North Allegheny also attended.

A couple of kids without Pitt offers came as well, I think the number was around 12-13 players.

Obviously the big fish to get in the WPIAL this year are Hamlin, Sanders, Hudson, and Pugh. And probably Aaron Matthews and Rashad Wheeler.

I think Pitt is in solid connection with all those guys.

I think perhaps the best player on this end of the state even though he isn't rated as highly is Andrew Pryts from Hickory, but I think he trimmed Pitt and PSU out of the mix already.

Actually think PSU is still considered the favorite to land Pryts with Michigan, Michigan St. and Ohio St. all in the mix.

I thought Stanford was a big player there, guess I haven't followed too closely, I thought I came across that he wanted to leave the state you're probably right though.

He is one of only a couple players to actually have an Alabama offer from PA. He's legit, should get bumped to a four-star in my opinion. I love his film.

Yeah we played them last year and saw him vs Tyrone this year. Like u said his tape is lights out. Agree he should be a four star and the offers back that up.

Sanders would be a big loss for Penn State. I don't think it would hurt as much on the field as it would with recruiting the WPIAL. They've always had trouble recruiting Woody High, because their coach Novak hates Penn State. Where it really hurts is with future kids such as Hamlin, Ford, Wade, etc but Penn State always has had trouble landing those kids. I'm really happy with what Penn State has at running back. I actually like Saquan Barkley's film better than Sanders, but perception and recruiting pipeline it will hurt.

As for Pryts, I believe Penn State is a pretty heavy favorite to land him.
