I'd like Nelson and a kid from Prep school or JUCO that can play right away ideally. I've not gone to see MT. Lebo this year, but nobody I talked to that did has come away very impressed by Bookser.

Does the huge blowout lose to OSU affect PSU chances of landing Holley?

@RivalsCamp: .@GetYourShaneOn Per text convo with #Rivals100 Holley, #PSU #OSU outcome did not affect recruitment at all - @RivalsFriedman #AskRivals

You can look at it 2 ways. 1. He already decided pretty much were he was going and it didn't play a factor 2. The two are tied and the lose or win didn't affect either team

I'll still be surprised if he's not a Lion

yeah, I see Alabama is sniffing around now. I'm sure if they offer, he ends up there, but we are his best current offer by far.

Plus Larry Johnson recruiting him definitely helps us

that and playing time

Feeling even better about Holley ending up a Nittany Lion, and I was already pretty confident. Hopefully he just pulls the trigger soon......word on OSU boards is that Holley told Urbs, thanks but no thanks.

Offer out to Nation's #1 JUCO DL Terrance Clinkscales.

Are we still recruiting Bookser?

Saw the guys we want over him and WOW, I can see why they aren't pushing Bookser. If they get any of the 3 names I saw, they'd be far better pulls. Elumanor is apparently still an option and the other 2 are current commits to the Irish.

Barney set to visit for Nebraska game, looks like unless Bama offers, we will get him and he's an early enrollee.

Now we just need some secondary and o-line help and I will be really happy.

We got the secondary help on the way, Worley, Allen, Scott (I think he ends up at safety) and Vincent Jr., they are definitely working on the OL to finish this class

We need another player like Bhawoh Jue at CB. (He graduated with me) the best was when Joe Pa came to the school and "recruited" Bhawoh. He talked about Ethics and said he wasn't there to recruit anyone because that would be a violation. Bhawoh committed once he left.

I think Lucas, Amos, Vincent and Worley will be a fine group of corners. We need more safeties. Would love to add Boone to this class with Allen and Scott.

We are in on some BIGTIME CBs for next years class.

Sounds like Bookser is further down the list than I thought. Another OT offered, JUCO guy Kareem Are. Also has offers from FSU and USC, originally from NY, visiting Nebraska weekend

How many scholarships are we able to offer now due to the reduction in the (Bullsh*t) sanctions?

They can go anywhere from 23-26ish this year depending on JUCO's....20 now allowed for this class and 3 left over for early enrollees from last year, which are filled by Thompkins, O'Connor and White. If they get a few JUCO's, which they are pursuing, they could go as high as 26ish. Its basically a full class if they find enough players they want....getting back in a little late with the late reduction on sanctions, but once some coaches get canned around country players will be back on market.

Nest year is normal, full class for them and they are in on a ton of bigtime guys
