Awesome, glad to have him. Will be a great piece for the new coaching staff.
Very cool that he committed to us even without a HC. I've really appreciated how our coaches have sold the recruits on Penn State as a program and not themselves as coaches.

I don't mean to over dramatize it ...but that is IMO the biggest recruit (commit) since DWill. Maybe ever considering what we have been through. JP will hold a special place in PSU lore. Good for you Jamil. Welcome to PSU.

this whole recruiting class and the current team members will likely hold a special place in PSU lore, imo.

Also, I think this makes the other commitments stronger. I feel like it provides a good reassurance for the kids who are considering other schools. I know Cam and Armani were just doing their due diligence and will wait for a new coach to be named, but this still helps even for guys like them.

You commit to a school and community, not a coach. Jamil gets it. And, he just became a very popular Penn State player.

Ahh some good news. That's just an awesome story as well. Kid gets his schollie pulled by a college trying to do the right things, then he brings his grades up, gets the offer back and commits to the same school who has no idea what the future holds. Welcome back!

Just to throw it out there, he said as long as LJ Sr is here, he is good to go......
that is still to be determined...
Excellent news though...we needed that!

I'm sure some folks will take this as the old company PSU line, but I'm much happier with Pollard than Schutt. For the record I was very happy with Schutt.

It will be interesting to see how each of them (and Jarron Jones) do over the next 4-5 years. I wouldn't be surprised if our guy has the best work ethic and contributes earlier and more overall.
