and this spells the end of the Deeb recruitment (or at least I hope it does) imo.

How dare you speak poorly of Deeb!

Put rutgers al on suicide watch. We are owning nj recruits even in the midst of the sandusky scandal. Imagine once dust settles on this and sandusky rotting iin jail.

PSU is putting together a strong effort in NJ without question. If you go by the state rankings on 247, PSU has 7,9,15,29 and could be adding 8 (Barnwell) and 11 (Benton). With no kid ranked at the moment in the top six, I'm not sure I'd call owning it.

Issah, Benton, and a wildcard. AA, Stevenson, or Brown if he performs well this weekend.

Benton, and then genetically clone him 2 more times & that would be great!
Don't forget about Deeb, Issah, or Stevenson though.
Tough to chose honestly. Like a kid in a candy store... I would really be happy with any of these of these kids.
Congrats to Brandon! Wish him many great years in the Happiest Valley of them all!

Farrell had a breakdown of a NJ elite camp. Bell came in as the overall #1 skill position player at that camp. Paul Harris came in at #10. In two separate camp breakdowns Bell gets praised for his ability to cover down field, close, and get his head turned. The only knock was his height which to me at LB is extemely overrated. Nice to have but 6-0, 6-1 is plenty big as he has a pretty wide frame to begin with. I smell a run on LB's and it smells pretty damn good.

Did not know this - thanks for the heads up.

The two biggest knocks on him were his height an early on, recruiting sites questioned if he could cover in pass defense. As stated above, he did really well in pass coverage at the VTO event, so that shouldn't be an issue. He is underrated on 247. I think he is more of an 87 type player, not an 83. JMO.

I have a hard time believing height is that big of an issue. The staff has been very particular about height, especially at LB. Guys like Jared Alwan and John Kenny were invited to visit but never received offers (or really much interest after that) because they weren't tall enough.

Welcome aboard - I think Bell would be an outstanding strong side LB - love his tape!!

Really? I actually disliked his "junior" film (some of those clips are actually from his sophomore year), but I thought his sophomore film was pretty good. What did you like about it in particular?
I personally want to see more of his actual junior tape.

It is with Bell because I'm not sure his frame can support more than 235ish without him losing a step. Kind of like how Mike Hull at 6'0" can't seem to get over 220 (and that is probably being generous).

Didn't know this either, and it makes me feel a lot better about his tape.
