I've been holding my tongue at some of the things said here, but this is a little over the line.
1. From all indications, PSU is not the leader for Newsome (silent to VT already) or Forcier (just going by the same Michigan rumors that everyone's read). That's why I think this absurd talk about Savage is just a pre-emptive rationalization given his lack of interest.
2. Mike Teel was a ** recruit who committed early in the summer with just an offer from Wisconsin. Some Bosco sources claimed that after the Henne drama and before Morelli switched, PSU told him they'd take his verbal if he'd switch on the spot. Yet, he's going to end up with a better career than Morelli, running a very similar scheme.
Very few quarterbacks end up as successful as a Mike Teel. How far he's come is a testament to the hard work put in by both Teel and a very skilled coaching staff.
