Purdue football recruiting, moderated. Post responsibly and with respect for players and coaches. Rumors and speculation should be clearly labeled as such.
In the months after giving a verbal commitment to Temple, Keith Carlos started to have his doubts. The former Central football standout, who had just completed a second strong year at Lackawanna (Pa.) Community College, began to think he took himself out of the recruiting game too quickly.
Just two days before the Feb 2 national signing day, Carlos told Temple he wasn't going to sign.
"I just think I made my decision too early," Carlos said. "I didn't explore all of my options. I should have given it more thought. I thought I owed it to my family and to myself to shoot for the stars, you know?"
With the help of Central assistant coach John Carolina, Carlos put out some feelers. Almost three weeks later, he wound up catching what he believes is a bigger fish. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound tailback and receiver accepted a scholarship offer to play at Purdue next fall.
