I agree on Bolden as well, I was deliriously happy to learn he had went from offered one week with his dad mentioning no plans of a visit to being on the PSU campus in such a short span. From the sounds of it, we've got an enamored QB prospect on our hands and quite frankly I'll take whoever wants to be here that has an offer.
If Bolden wants PSU, I want Bolden, regardless of the outcome with any other perspective recruit...because that wouldn't be fair to Bolden. Obviously it doesn't hurt that I'm of the belief he could be wildly successful in the PSU offense...he definitely seems to want a return visit and I'd LOVE to have him as well as his teammate Earnest Thomas (fits nicely with what we've been doing at S). |
You know me, I'm never one for backing away from my view point.
The bolded passage is the thing. I don't go by words, go by actions. It seemed like they were happy about the PSU offer, but it was almost like on the back burner based on other obligations to other schools and track. Next thing you know, he is coming to visit with his old man. Got to like that. I like the Ernest Thomas offer as well.
I'm curious to see what happens if Bolden jumps on the PSU offer (think he waits a bit, but a great visit could change his mind) and what response would Jones have if he has yet to make up his mind on either reaffirming his verbal, or kicking PSU to the curb forever.
I want a kid who wants to be a Lion instead of a kid who is lukewarm. Bolden to me would help with recruiting and make the calls, something Jones has yet to do as a verbal.
