The staff obviously thinks he is a tier below IL WR Kyle Prater, CA WR Kenny Stills, MD WR Adrian Coxson, PA WR Alex Kenney, VA WR Justin Hunter (maybe? not 100% sure he has a verbal/written offer), and whoever else I'm forgetting. If Andrew is serious in his pursuit of a PSU offer and has legitimate interest in the program he'll attempt to make the spring game or visit for a spring practice, as well as attend PSU Nike camp so there is more out there on him (for every coaching staff).
There are rumors of 2-3 commits at/around the time of the B-W game, let us wait and see if that comes to fruition and who the 2-3 verbals are, that could be telling as far as whether he'd have a chance at an offer. Also have to see if a target or two drops off the board for us at WR or if he could be considered a flex-TE option.

Agree with a bunch of the stuff you are saying. There is NO REASON to offer him now. An offer to him now looks fishy relative to trying to lock up Jones' verbal.
PSU is only taking two or three WRs. To me Prater is a no go, a pipe dream and is off the board to me (despite him not verballing to anyone). I doubt he visits.
We get one of our WR verbals at the B&W Game and that doesn't include PSU sitting well with Coxson and possibly Stills.
