Drennon coming back to Penn State

  • http://pennstate.247sports.com/Article/Drennon-coming-back-to-Penn-State-67904

    Timber Creek junior Dajaun Drennon's history with Penn State hasn't exactly been without its flaws, but the three-star prospect will return to Happy Valley this weekend.

  • Happy to see that these two guys are big enough men to look past a terrible experience and see that this place has so much to offer they should at least consider it. That is a lot to ask from a 17 year old kid. Tremendous character.

    Definitely a mature thing to do. Personally, I think I would have trouble getting over that(simple mistake or not) and giving the new crew a clean slate.

  • Kids are going back home from visits saying good things about the new staff and new energy. The way things are going we're locking down Jersey as well. Rutgers beside themselves.

    How we ever let Rutgers get momentum in Jersey is beyond me. Outside of one 11 win season, that program has been mediocre at best in a terrible conference..

    thumbsupPerhaps PSU didn't recruit there aggressively in the past like they are doing now.

    Really? The guy made that much of a judgement based on one game?? Anyone that ends his sentences with "and what not" is out for me. Coaches weren't "nice" enough from the sounds of it last time. Guy sounds like a sissy to me. Better fit for UNC

    Wow. You're more judgmental than a junior in HS. What does that say about you? He's giving us a second chance. You're ready to wash your hands of him over "and what not".

    I'm judging the guy on what he actually said. He is making his judgement based on a limited interaction and a security mix up. While his judgement will impact his education and athletic/professional future, my judgement only expresses my opinion and irritates you. When he says:

    "He was telling me that the new coaching staff is like completely different from the old coaching staff,"

    and then follow it up with an explanation of how they are different:

    "They're all nice and he said the campus was beautiful."

    That means before the coaching staff was mean and our campus was crap. I take pride in our prior staff as well as our current one so I don't like what the guy is implying .Guy sounds whiney to me is all....and yeah "and what not" annoys me...I might be less judgmental if the guy was a 4 star

    All he said is that it left a bad taste in his mouth. He didn't say it caused him to hate Penn State, or anything... or what not. {snicker, snicker}

    Ohhhhh ok. CRYSTAL clear. He's 17. Maybe 16. I'm proud of the old staff as well, but I'm also very glad that the new staff is very different. And how do u know he even saw the campus on his last trip? Kid is a high 3 star on this site. I sure hope he gets those extra two points so you can give him a chance.

    So are you suggesting that the previous staff is infallible and never made a recruiting blunder?

    We can talk again when he gets those extra 2 points...until then we will just have to agree to disagree

    Did I say that? Let me check the post again real quick....nope I didn't. Any other questions?

    After the game, recruits usually go into a recruiting lounge where they'll meet with the coaches, once again. Webb and Drennon went to the lounge, and then left to meet with Quinton Alston, who was their former teammate now at Iowa. They left their passes in the lounge, and when they tried to re-enter, security stopped them. At least, that is what I've been told.

    No but you did call him whiny, and said he was a sissy, and got your panties all knotted up at the suggestion that the old staff wasnt nice to him.. While you sit up on your high horse judging the kid based on what he says, you then keep running your mouth and show how shallow and small you are, by saying if the kid was a 4 star you would "less judgemental".. Go drink your ensure and take your medication, because you sound like a bitter grumpy old man..

Bmorepsu and I were just having a good back and forth and you come out of left field roid rage'n. It's all good though...I won't hold it against you because you have a 247 5 star rating with an incredible 896 posts. I'm just a 3 star so I'll hold myself to my own shallow standards lol
