That is weird that he is not listing PSU.

He says he hasn't been in contact with Penn St yet, so I am guessing that is the reason. If he is anything like Joe though, a standup guy with great abilities, I would be thrilled to have Ben in Columbus.

As a side note, if he were to play baseball as well... he also lists the Bucks in that regard. I think he likes us... .

Doesn't look like he got his cousin's height though. Anyone see him play this year that can comment on his abilities?

Ben is hearing from tOSU, ND, and Michigan. He has spoken with Coach Beckman.

Can't say I've seen him play personally, but 300 yards in 4 games is really impressive for any highschool wide receiver. Sounds like he could be a player to keep an eye on.

My guess is he ends up playing DI college baseball. Tremendous all-around athelete however. Played mostly D last year b/c that's where the team needed him, but I saw him dominate at WR on the JV level.

And 42.85ypc is pretty decent

Word from an Ignatius insider is that Ben is hanging up the pads to concentrate on Baseball.

Any idea who's recruiting him for baseball?

Ben is being hit steadily in the early going of the Lakota West vs. St. Ignatius play-off game. First run came of a an error that mucked up a potential double play.

Read today that he'll be playing baseball at Marshall.
