Kiffin against players picking after NSD

ESPNU 150 Watch List offensive lineman Angelo Mangiro (Succasunna, N.J./Roxbury) has an impressive early offer list.

Florida, USC, Ohio State, Rutgers, Pittsburgh, Maryland, Boston College, Virginia and Connecticut are among the early suitors for the 6-foot-3, 290-pounder.

"[Ohio State, Florida and USC] are always up near the top of the polls at the end of the season," Mangiro said. "Florida has won two national championships in the last four years. USC is the power out West and they got everything going under Pete Carroll and now they have a new, good coach. [Ohio State head coach Jim Tressell] reminds me of my high school coach and that program is another that has been in the mix for national championships."

Penn State, the program Mangiro grew up pulling for, has not yet pulled the trigger on an offer.

"They told me that I probably won't be getting an offer that early," he said. "That's just the way they do things. I am interested in them and have made several unofficial visits and plan to visit there more, though."
Mangiro says that location, playing opportunity, coaching staff stability and academics all will be factors when he goes to pick a college.

He currently is in the midst of basketball season and says he's maxed out at 320 pounds on the bench press.

2011 Intro | Angelo Mangiro
By Warren Lent

...
Weighing in at 290 lbs. and standing at 6?3?, Angelo has a nearly perfect stature for an offensive guard. While he appreciates the thrill of the chase on defense, this line prospect feels more comfortable guarding the backfield. ?I like the feeling you get when you focus in on one guy and just driving them right to their butt.? This type of attitude is seen through out the week, which has Mangiro pegged as a bully when he?s in the trenches during practice.

Rivals $ - An offer at the Roxbury
Gerard Martinez of USCFootball.com, March 8, 2010

Southern Cal offered last week & Mangiro wants to at least take a look at the Trojans... He & his family have talked about staying closer to home but USC has piqued his interest... He's getting to know the coaches & doing research on each school so he can pare his list to 5 by the season... No leader, no time table...

With the presumption of held spots for Michael Bennett and Aundrey Walker, we could have a squeeze play on by the staff with Mangiro and Hale to be the second true DT in this class.

It almost looks possible that the staff is willing to take up to 11 OL/DL guys in this class with the longtime offers out to Bennett, Mangiro, and Walker and the new offers out to Hale and Ishaq Williams

1 Hayes
2 Miller
3 Carter
4 Underwood
5 Bobek
6 Farris
7 Brown
8 Bennett
9 Walker
10 Mangiro/ or Hale
11 Williams/stud edge rusher type

Talk about a strong in the trenches class!
