Diggs will be a five-star. Kid can flat out play. That said, I don't think he comes to Penn State.

Sean:
Are you listing guys like Reeves at where PSU is recruiting them, or how they will be rated/graded here on 247? Just curious, as guys like him and Williams can be listed as ATH/DB/WR?
If you havent signed up for premium 247 yet..take my word for it...its worth it!

It's a mixture haha.
Reeves is being recruited as a DB, Williams as a LB/Ath., Jarron Jones as an OL/DL.

I haven't been following Huggins closely, but I picked Rutgers in December and I'll stick with that.
Penn State offered, he was interested early and that kind of fell by the wayside. Penn State kind of fell out of touch with him though I'm not sure that was by design.

I'm going to guess Denman, Eugene Lewis, and Nosovitch get offers next with a shot that Demetrius Cox (the S from Jeannette visiting this weekend) picks up an offer this weekend.

If he is going to get an offer, I expect it would be sometime during spring practice (Feb-Apr).
I have read that they want to get him on campus for a visit, so I'm thinking an offer could be made during/just after said visit.

Where the heck is Jamil Pollard's name??!! That kid's highlights are scary. He is practically in our back yard too! He could play OG, OT or DT. I have to believe an offer will be extended soon.

Here's a blurb on Bisnowaty from 2009 PPG:
Adam Bisnowaty is a 6-6, 275-pound offensive lineman at Fox Chapel who is starting to open eyes. Fox Chapel coach Bryan Deal is a former Pitt assistant coach who said, "If the kid keeps developing on the same pattern he did from his freshman to sophomore year, he will be one of the top linemen in the country in the future."
Deal believes Bisnowaty might be destined for a standout collegiate career.
"He's an athletic tackle," Deal said. "I could put him in Pitt's locker room right now and you couldn't tell me which one was the high school lineman."

That last quote is a gem - LOL!

Building off that, Bryan Deal is no longer the coach at Fox Chapel. Now coaching there is PSU alum Eric Ravotti. Here is the blurb from their website.
The Fox Chapel Area School Board has hired Eric Ravotti as the new Fox Chapel Area High School Varsity Head Football Coach. Ravotti, originally from Freeport, played on the Freeport High School Football Team where he received numerous regional, state, and national accolades. Following his graduation from Freeport High School in 1989, he was a four-year starter at Penn State, as well as an all-conference selection in 1994. Ravotti was then drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers where he was a member of the team that played in Super Bowl XXX. He retired after three years with the Steelers.
Most recently, Ravotti was an assistant coach for the Freeport High School Varsity Football Team and he has also been actively involved as a coach for the Pine-Richland Youth Football Program. He has also acted as a consultant for numerous local high school football teams. Ravotti is currently president and owner of the RAR Insurance and Development Company based in the Pittsburgh area.
Ravotti replaces Bryan Deal who resigned for personal reasons in November 2010 after six seasons coaching the Fox Chapel Area High School Varsity Football Team. Ravotti, a resident of Pine Township, was hired by the School Board at its January 10, 2011, regular business meeting.

Well that can only increase our already good chances with Bisnowaty. Any other Fox Chapel players Ravotti can push our way, now or in the near future?
Also, since I'm not too familiar with area HS coaches, are there any other PSU ties in WPIAL (or the state in general)?
