I knew ND was a player for a Shrive...I just didn't realize we were writing him off as an ND lock. It just seems to me that a kid from Pennsylvania who is being offered by everyone would be someone that the PSU staff would go to work on to try and convince to play for the home state school. You could put together a pretty solid class just working PA this year:

Dorian Bell
Eric Shrive
Tom Savage
Je'Ron Stokes
Corey Brown
Jaleel Clark
Dan Mason
Todd Thomas

Those are PA kids claiming PSU offers...add a few others like Jack Lippert, Jordan Hill, Jeremiah Young, Tyron Ezell, Steve Greene, Nick Kindler, etc. and you have the foundation for a solid class.
Dorian Bell - won't be a Lion. Already talking about PSU's depth being so deep that he doesn't think he could play early. Yet, he has high interest in OSU and FSU, two other programs stacked at LB. Kid is a wuss. No problem looking at depth charts, but to me, he doesn't want to compete. Kids have gotten early playing time at PSU at LB when the depth chart was stacked.

Tom Savage - DOUBT he has a PSU offer, which he claims. PSU is showing little interest if any. He is miffed that he is the fourth or fifth option for PSU. They know he isn't the QB that can run the new offense. Savage is Morelli Part Deaux. We have seen this movie before. Let him go to Rutgers and have the same career as Mike Teel, very unimpressive.

Shrive - I've already said my piece on him

Brown - probably the most overrated kid in PA. Going to Pitt

Feel good about Mason, Thomas, Stokes and Clark. PSU loses three wideouts and the depth chart is wide open for those three receivers. Mason doesn't seem phased by our stacked LB collection.

Lippert and Hill will be PSU guys, IF they get the offers - especially Hill. PSU should offer Young. Would have a very good chance at him, provided RichRod doesn't offer him an SUV.
