I know I promised a recruiting board several weeks ago. Every time I sit down to start it I realize how daunting a task it is to do all the research involved. It wasn't too bad last year when Penn State only had about 15 scholarships to play with, but this year we are expecting a full class of 25 kids which means we'll probably hand out over 60 offers before the year is done. And we're into the time of year where the recruiting board is in constant flux as kids commit, take PSU off their list, and new offers are handed out to the plan B kids. So instead of trying to roll the whole thing out at once, I decided to roll it out in phases. First we'll start with the quarterbacks.

My plan is to gradually add to this. It's not going to be a constantly morphing document because like I said, with a class this big it's going to be constantly changing. And once the season starts forget it. So I look at this more as something you can refer back to from time to time. It's not a very fancy board as I'm still learning the ins and outs of this BSD HD thing. So you'll see me eventually start getting braver and tinkering with the format. So feedback is appreciated. If you have any suggestions please let me know.
