i agree, just recruiting penn and ohio next year and our recruiting class could rival any in the nation

With the great class in state at lb and we might not even take one...

We're recruiting him at linebacker, I presume? Or do I presume incorrectly?

You presume correctly...in fact, I am going to take the RB out of the thread title.

 

[crazybuckfan40]

Should be interesting to see how this recruitment goes...

PSU might have the upper hand due to being the instate school, but our tradition is not something that can be overlooked...I would also like to win some recruiting battles over PSU in 08'...

Word is Michigan and OSU are the leaders out of the gate, with OSU possibly having a slight edge thanks to Andy Miller. The BPRT was trying to figure out last night why PSU and Pitt have not shows more interest in Andrew.

Pitt offered him awhile ago so I would call that showing interest.

Pretty much a retread of the Rivals article.

Are Hale and Sweat both considered MLBs?

 

[wadc45]

Hale is for sure. Sweat is tougher to project...he looks to me to be more of a SLB.

 

[cheetah]

For what it's worth, I am in the Pittsburgh area and a lot of people in western PA thinks Hale has all of the measureables but that Sweat is a better player. Hale will get more offers but Sweat is just a football player.
