2019 Recruiting Class Thread
- Thread starter Judge Smails
- Start date
Some talk that Dunmore is going to verbal at the end of June and PSU is the perceived leader.
Things could break our way on the field this season - I felt we were a little unlucky at certain points last season.
That is a good thing because I think our W/L record vs OSU and the Michigan schools will have an even bigger weight than normal on recruiting this year. Some of these "unlikely" recruits outside our traditional strongholds like Dunmore, Cain etc. (and even folks like Harrison) will look at us a whole lot differently if we can beat UM twice in a row and OSU 2 out of three years.

Seven's a goofy number for a cut down point. Way too many at this point in the game, for someone who's already been around. Doesn't sound like his recruitment will end anytime soon.
Penn State makes the cut for Jakai Moore and David Ojabo:
Jakai Moore Top 7: PSU, Miami, Ohio State, Clemson, VT, UNC, S. Carolina
David Ojabo Top 15: PSU, UVA, Nebraska, Rutgers, BC, Cuse, Ohio State, Mich, Cal, Clemson, ND, Duke, Harvard, Penn, Texas A&M
Jakai Moore Top 7: PSU, Miami, Ohio State, Clemson, VT, UNC, S. Carolina
David Ojabo Top 15: PSU, UVA, Nebraska, Rutgers, BC, Cuse, Ohio State, Mich, Cal, Clemson, ND, Duke, Harvard, Penn, Texas A&M
David Ojabo heard your comment and raised you one. Just released his "Top 15" lol
Whoever gets the last visit for him is going to get his commitment. I think Bama is his 4th "Favorite" so far.
I think this is one kid who ends up at PSU. Even if he verbals to Bama I like our chances. The Canadian Connection we have going is huge.
When you start recruiting against Alabama, Ohio State, and Georgia for all your recruits, you're not going to pull 100% of who you want. But all the ones you do pull are elite prospects. I'll take that trade off.
Considering he said he likes the players and the business like approach of the program, I think you will be disappointed. Seems like he wants to focus on football and believes Bama is the place to do it. Hard to argue with that. He may very well respond better to that pitch than the all around focus of Franklin's pitch.
Should I be having a meltdown? We haven't gotten a verbal in a little while, and there is a lot of talk about prized recruits going elsewhere. Maybe a certain someone in Happy Valley needs a little firing? Maybe the temperature needs to be turned up on someone's seat?

Franklin is no Nardooozi. 14 verbals in one day.

Go ahead, have a meltdown. Just make sure you send Barbour a large sum before you do.
We're probably the leader for both the guys you mentioned (Dunmore and Cain), no worse than Top 2 or 3, so I'm not sure how "differently" recruits like that will look at us based on the results of a few games.

How many can Bama take? Are they shooting for 50 this year? I'm sure they'll find a way if they want to
Where there's a bagman, there's a way.
We have awesome, awesome talent coming in as it is. Good kids, too, from what I can see. I ain’t worrying.
Curious where you are hearing that on Dunmore. Everything I have seen is he is a strong FSU lean right now.

I once asked the same question regarding Ford and his recruitment. Sadly, I got no response from the Judge. Everything I had read about Ford to PSU was positive. Judge kept posting info showing the opposite feel.
I am just saying. Happy we landed Ford.

Franklin did not want a Qb controversy . Even at the time Mc Sorely would have outplayed him
'Why to I waste my time on these threads where people don't seem to have learned a thing from the past recruiting seasons.... let's see, last year alone, we lost Micah Parsons and Jahan Dotson.... oh, no we didn't...and Tyreke was a commit, oh, no he wasn't. However, every other program goes through the same thing.... yet.... the posts just keep on coming just as lame as ever and obviously from way too many posters who have a zero learning curve.
So don’t read these threads. You obviously cannot fathom kids changing their minds, so just show up on LOI. It’s clear to many here recruiting is very fluid, but apparently you get upset by that. Just wait til they are signed.
Recruiting is indeed very fluid and this is a great place to try and stay up to date.
Jakai Moore will be on campus today. Not sure if this had been planned before Truss committed or not. But a much more important target with Truss off the board.
One has nothing to do with the other, but hopefully it helps the cause.
I'm pretty sure Wiltfong just CBed Ojabo to Michigan. Interestingly crappy development
Believe Moore has been #1 on our OL board all along, fwiw.
That sucks. Must be the blue end zones.
He spent the majority of his childhood in Scotland. Maybe he wants that free Eurotrip?
Is he even at the top of PSU’s board ahead of Harrison, Hunter, Hunte, Smith, Isaac, etc...
He was there yesterday for camp. Sounds like he still has other visits planned.
It was my impression the staff loved his raw athleticism. While we are in on Harrison and Smith, both will be difficult to get out of their home states. Isaac is also kind of raw.
True, it is not over.
