Anthony Fera is ranked by Chris Sailer Kicking as a kicker and a punter. The strange thing is that he is a kicker in a linebacker's body. The 6-foot-2, 230-pound kicker has an explosive leg and also doubles as a linebacker.
Fera showed well at LSU's camp last weekend and will be visiting Michigan, Penn State and Ohio State in weeks to come.
"He's been verbally offered by Oregon," father Tony Fera said. "He's also been told that he will be offered by Michigan when he goes to their camp next week. He also really likes Ohio State and Penn State. LSU said they will be recruiting him very hard throughout the process."

From the OSU site...no offers yet but is drawing attention from Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State, LSU and Oregon. Favors OSU and PSU. OSU has talked about a possible grayshirt offer, which he says is not ideal but he would be open to.

Michigan Rich Rodriguez tapped former Michigan kicker Brandon Kornblue to run his first kicking camp in June. The two-day event attracted some of the top talent from across the country, and from Michigan’s standpoint was an opportunity to evaluate prospects for a potential scholarship offer. With the current roster of kickers getting along in eligibility, at least one kicking prospect is expected to be offered in the 2009 class.
Following Michigan’s camp, two names emerged at the top of the list for the kicker scholarship. Houston (Texas) St. Pius X’s Anthony Fera (6-2, 230 pounds) actually came in during Michigan’s regular camp week to kick for Michigan coaches because his family was going on vacation during the kicking camp. His booming leg and overall athleticism made an impression on Rodriguez and his staff.

Report: Fourth recruit rescinds commitment to U-M

Another high school football player has rescinded his verbal commitment to Michigan.
Kicker Anthony Fera told Michigan coach Rich Rodriguez on Tuesday night that he will not be coming to Michigan, GoBlueWolverine.com reported Wednesday morning. Fera said his heart is with Penn State.
Fera's father told the Web site of his son's decision and said it had nothing to do with the Wolverines' 2-5 record this year.
