Letter Of Intent Day Open Thread

Lioneye_edited_tiny by BSD on in Open Threads

Today is the day...maybe not so much

It's Christmas day for the recruitniks. Time to find out who got the shiny new bicycle and who got the tube socks. Stay tuned to BSD for breaking news. I'll be floating in and out to give updates as I hear them. Please share any information you hear in the open thread. Some things to watch for today.

First and foremost review the safety card in the seat in front of you. We're all about safety here and we don't want anyone getting hurt.

Terrelle Pryor is supposed to announce his decision at noon today. Either that or he will announce he's going to say he's not ready to make a decision yet. If you listen to the Ohio State insiders he's a lock for the Buckeyes. If you listen to the Michigan insiders he's a lock for the Wolverines. If you listen to the Penn State insiders we're still on the outside but we're coming on strong. Whatever he says I'll have his answer up here for you as soon as I hear it. So flex your index finger and get it loose. I think we're all going to be hitting the refresh button like monkeys on crack today.

You may have heard yesterday that there was an internet rumor going around that Deion Walker reopened his recruiting over the weekend, and it's now down to Penn State, Notre Dame, and Tennessee. As soon as I hear something I'll share that with you as well.

The other big question mark will be Michael Shaw who Michigan insiders have been saying is wavering in his commitment to PSU and is looking at the Wolverines. Penn State insiders claim he is still solid to the Lions. So we'll see there.

GoPSF.com will be posting the faxed in letters as the recruits send them in. So you can follow along as the day goes.

UPDATE: According to Rivals.com National Recruiting Analyst Mike Farrell, Terrelle Pryor will be delaying his decision. This is actually a very good sign for Penn State.

8:30 AM: Letters are in for A.J. Price, Matt Stankiewitch, Mike Yancich, and Pete Massaro.

9:13 AM: James Terry has faxed his letter in.

9:24 AM: Earlier this morning Deion Walker reaffirmed his commitment to Notre Dame. I understand his letter has been sent in. It's over with him.

9:27 AM: Letters are in for Jack Crawford and Mike Zordich.

10:10 AM: D'Anton Lynn is a Nittany Lion. Exhale, but just a little bit. Rumors are swirling that Michael Shaw has faxed in his LOI to Michigan. It's spreading like wild fire throughout the Michigan and PSU boards. I'm watching live updates from his presser and he hasn't made an official announcement yet.

10:15 AM: Michael Shaw has delayed his decision until 1 PM today.

10:55 AM: Mark Wedderburn has faxed in his LOI.

11:09 AM: DeOn'tae Pannell is a Nittany Lion.

11:56 AM: Pryor presser scheduled in a few mintues. BSD is going to get some lunch. He's thinking a cheesesteak with hot peppers today. No more updates for about 30 minutes. Only Ware, Farrell, and Shaw left to go.

1:19 PM: Michael Shaw has selected Michigan. Message board meltdown in 3...2...1...

3:20 PM: Letters have been received from Brandon Ware and Mike Farrell. That will conclude the activities for the day. Analysis to follow tonight or tomorrow.

I Have Been...
Fighting a cough, and started the first day of official baseball practice. So I have been dragging hard, then I wake up today and find out the news about Pryor, WOW that sounds awesome. I am still worried about his reputation and the venom that will be spit his way, and apparently the kid is a little concerned about it too according to the rivals report.

I actually believe
That he really has a hard time telling anyone no and that he is torn on where to go.  There is a very similar story on ESPN pointing this out.

Interesting
Pitt had a last minute defection.

http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/sports/college/pitt/s_550976.html

Maybe Reed can shed some light on this and let us know how this will affect the Panthers. I see by the article they have another quarterback in this class.

The Word on Stoudt
After injuries pretty much played havoc with the QB situation at Pitt last year, Wannstedt made it a point to load up at the position with this recruiting class.

The three QBs who took snaps for Pitt last year - Stull, Bostick and Kevan Smith - are all back in the fold for next season.  They secured a JUCO QB named Greg Cross (6'2", 214) who is projected to be a bit of a more versatile, option-type QB, but he's reportedly throws a good deep ball (something Bostick doesn't do).  They continued to recruit the position even further, getting commitments from both Stoudt and then Central Catholic QB Tino Sunseri (who'd originally committed to Louisville).

Thus, they were basically looking at six scholarship QBs on the roster coming into next season, and two of them - Sunseri and Bostick - would both be in Stoudt's age range.  That's probably what prompted Stoudt's decision to go elsewhere.  He would've been in direct competition with these two for the bulk of his college career.  I can't blame him for going and I wish him the best, even though he will be staying in the Big East.

Stull and Cross are expected to compete for the starting job and Bostick will likely be in the mix as well.  I think the coaching staff would really prefer to redshirt Bostick next year.  There is some speculation that Kevan Smith might move to TE because there are some depth issues there (and he is a decent athlete).  That would leave Sunseri as either a potential redshirt or the #3 QB, depending on what happens to Kevan Smith.

This is awesome
The entire reason he likes OSU is the comfort level. They don't run the style of offense he's looking for anymore than we do. In fact we ran an offense more like Jeannette with MRob than they did with Troy Smith. He's comfortable with the coaches. He's comfortable with the players and other recruits. If we can get him on campus we can give him that same comfort level.

The old man
The great thing about Joe Paterno is every time you count him out, and your sure he's finished he pulls comes up with something that gets us right back in the game.

In the Post-Gazette artice Pryor is talking about trust; how the hell can you trust Rich Rodriguez?  

Obviously there is a long way to go here, but JoePa pulled one out of his ass and got us to overtime, lets see if we can close the deal.

Sounds like what we went through with Hazelton.

I just hope no one on here trys to say the kid isn't talented if he picks OSU.  He certainly is and will give us fits if he picks OSU.  I just hope to god it isn't UM because RR is a dirtier then Pete and slick Rick put together.

You know it is similar to Vidal
The difference is Vidal always said he wanted to go to USC, but since he was not 18 yet so his Dad had to sign the LOI.  His Father actually refused to do it at first becuasue he wanted him to go to PSU but eventually relented and VIdal went to Southern Cal.  

Pryor has always said he has not made up his mind.

Shaw
I think you hit his dilema. His buddies are going to Michigan, but he knows Penn State is a better fit for him. Michigan already has three running backs in this class including Sam McGuffie. At Penn State there is a good chance he'll get more playing time.

Pryor Update
This sounds extremely good for PSU.

http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/08037/855148-100.stm

The reason Pryor won't announce his college choice is Penn State.

"They're starting to creep up on me," Pryor said.

Pryor had said earlier in the week that Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State were his three finalists, but it was always believed Ohio State and Michigan were his top two choices. But he apparently is liking Penn State more and more.

"My dad likes them a lot," Pryor said. "He wants me to look into them."

Pryor also said his father doesn't see "the trust" in some of the coaches recruiting him that he sees in Penn State.

Pryor said he has no timetable on when he will make a decision. He said he will make an official visit to Penn State at some point, but not this weekend.

"I want to visit Penn State," Pryor said. "Whenever I get the feeling [on his favorite college], I'll do it. I haven't got that feeling yet."

Pryor said Penn State assistant coaches Tom Bradley and Jay Paterno have dealt more with his parents than any other school.

"Penn State has done a lot," Pryor said. "They showed up a lot more. They recruited me a lot more. They've sent pages upon pages of handwritten letters."

In the fall, Pryor had questioned Penn State's offensive style. Last week, Penn State coach Joe Paterno, Bradley and Jay Paterno all visited with Pryor at Jeannette. They also visited with his parents.

"I just didn't know about their offense because I never had a meeting with their coach," Pryor said. "I didn't know what they were about. I thought it was just a power offense. It's not."

Pryor
Not to repeat what I just said below, but the PPG just printed what Pryor said.  Not his cousin, quasi-friend, or ex-girlfriend thinks.

Pryor has previously expressed some concerns about going to Penn State, but he has never ruled us out, and he has always said positive things.  

I think most of the mainstream media relies on the Rivals/Scout rumor boards to generate their stories, and if you listen to them, there is no way Pryor will come to PSU.  If have only listened to Pryor and his Father, PSU was always a player.

Like what the hell was Wedderburn doing that was more important than faxing his letter in at 8:30? Really, Mike Zordich's kid had to keep us guessing for an extra hour?

football
I don't think LJ was recruited much. His dad coached for PSU so I think most schools figured he was a lock to go there.

I know MRob was looking at Virginia Tech. He was going to sign with them but Michael Vick talked him out of it saying he needed to go somewhere else where he wouldn't be called the next Michael Vick. Then a year later Michael's little brother went to VT. Go figure.

Video interview with Pryor that contains the quotes above. I think the interviewer is hiding the camera in a duffle bag or something as Pryor is trying to pick something out of his eye. Interesting none-the-less. You kind of feel bad for this kid b/c you can tell he doesn't know what to do.

Two washed up fools telling Pryor that he needs to go to either OSU or Michigan.  I think it should be illegal for the media to be saying, this kid should go "to school x" because they are a good fit, etc.  

However, Pryor just said that Oregon is still in the mix and we were an afterthought to the entire press conference.

by PSU Nick on Feb 6, 2008 1:09 PM EST to parent up   0 recs

I think any parent who has a kid that is being
recruited to play football needs to think long and hard about where to send their kids.  Look at Ryan Mallet at Michigan.  Coaching change, new style of play, college career uprooted with possible turmoil to follow.  People can say what they want to about us, but I think our stability in this day and age is a great selling point to a recruit.  Does anybody think Mallet envisioned this happening to him?  I think Pryor's dad is maybe looking at this, and I have a feeling we may be a close, and I mean CLOSE, second to the F@ckeyes.  And all we have to do is point to MRob and say we will run a spread if you have the skills to do it.  I still don't think we need Pryor, not with Devlin having three years of eligibility remaining, but this is going to be interesting and fun to watch!!!
