baltimoresun.com - Recruiting Report: Terps after multiple Roosevelt standouts
Quote:
Morris sports an offer from Penn State, while Maryland and many others have shown interest.
“Morris’ thing is that he’s very quick,” Green said. “He’s only 5’8 and some change, so I think that was probably some of the hold up on a few schools that didn’t offer him early. But Penn State looked at his tape and saw that he ran so well and has great hips [to play] cornerback.”
Green said he thinks Thomas, Ross and Morris will all let their recruitments play out a bit before making their choices.
“With these guys, they’re so well schooled in the recruiting process, that a lot of these guys are going to visit the schools in the summer, go to some one-day camps, and then feel them out to see where they want to go to college.”

ESPN - Linebackers aplenty at Penn State Nike Camp - Insider

CB Stephon Morris (Greenbelt, Md./Eleanor Roosevelt)
Morris talked too much for our taste but also displayed his ability to play press coverage and flashed the footwork, short-area quickness and change-of-direction skills to play soft man. He's a compactly-built player with some nice upper-body strength to outmuscle wide receivers at the line.

Don't be surprised if Morris verbals to Penn State in the near future.

I'm expecting it, if we get Morris & Hodges I don't know what that means for Jordan Love - I'm sure we would still recruit him extremely hard and if we got him that would put an end to secondary recruiting...do you think that Danzel Manley from ER will get a Penn State offer in the future at OT?

Guessing either he or Jaleel Clark will be the next verbal. |

Excellent. Can't wait for Stephon to announce it Memorial Day weekend if he does indeed visit then. Hell, I can't wait to hear what Shrive has to say when he talks to the media tomorrow about his commitment to Penn State.

Penn State verbal commit. Congrats to Stephen...I don't know if my crazy posts from months ago are still on here somewhere but I really wanted this kid from day 1 and I am very happy we got him.
