Around SBN: Certifiable: Purdue gets elite win over Tennessee

Rumor has it we may get a verbal today

I'm assuming it could be somebody named Curtis from Philadelphia.  Unfortunately that leaves two possibilities.  Does anybody have any insights?  The rumor started on BWI and apparently it stemmed from a FOS TAP post.  I think that both Dukes and Drake would be a welcome addition to PSU.  I watched Drake's video and I don't think he's going to play QB at a D1 school but he appears to be a really nice athlete that could transition to the WR spot.  Dukes could be the next LJ given his size and speed.  That's a lot of pressure to put on a kid and most kids of course would never live up to such a label but he does have LJ type physical abilities. 

So, anyone know who we may be getting today?  Thanks in advance!

Dukes

it looks like Dukes does not hold a Penn State offer, so it would be near impossible for him to commit unless LJ Sr. went to New York over the weekend and gave him one.

In other good news…Tate Forcier has narrowed his list to 20 and we are still in it.

Medlar

It appears that he has seen Medlar Field before and feels that it is too “plain looking”, and he didn’t really dig it.
