CB Armani Reeves (National Champion)

I don't know that I agree with this. I don't think any of the DB's in this class are a lock to stay at corner and seem to recall at least one report on each where it's noted that they may project better at safety. I think a true CB would be a nice fit in this class.

Agreed. Bogard and Powell are safeties, Murray could play some CB but I like him as a FS.

Reeves is an athlete you get and find a position for once (if) he gets here...

As much as I love stealing recruits from PoSU or scUM... I do feel bad for these kids who thought they had college all taken care of, but now have to scramble to figure it all out.

Most of these recruits will end up with a full scholarship at another fine university, so I can't feel too sorry about them.

Who I feel sorry for is the kids who chose Penn State a year or two ago, thinking that while they may not have had JoePa as a coach their entire college career, that they were at a reasonably ethical university. Those kids have two choices--transfer and sit a year, or spend a couple more years thinking about Jerry Sandusky every time they go into the locker room.

But enough about that--let's get back to Reeves.

I agree. Anyone who doesn't have sympathy for the average PSU fan is crazy. It's not like it was USC or Miami, where everybody and their brother knew what was going on from day one. It's much like our situation - who in their right mind had ANY idea Tressel was hiding that info? It's enough to make you not even want to follow your school anymore. Imagine if something that serious and out of the blue hit us?

Agreed, only I think Powell is more likely to play corner than Murray (better hips, a tad more athletic in coverage). Either way, at most I see one CB in this class and frankly, I think we are a tad thin at corner. Unless Grant turns it on (plenty of time for that obviously), nobody outside of Roby has been impressive. Furthermore, look at the past two classes with this year and I count 4 total corners at max out of the younger guys...I think we would like one in this class and Reeves would be a fantastic get:

2012- S: Bogard, Powell (?), Murray (?)
CB: One of Powell or Murray

2011- S: Cash, Tanner
CB: Gambrell (possibly safety?), Grant

2010- S: Bryant, Hagan
CB: Roby

I'm not crazy, and I don't have any sympathy for them at all.

I have 0 sympathy for penn state and im far from crazy. Could honestly care less for them and my gf happens to be a psu fan. Im sure they didnt feel bad for us when we had our sanctions and this news of dirty old man Sandusky came out. I would love more than for us to get Williams and reeves, and beat the the tar out of psu continually. Im not a big 10, im an osu fan, I could care less about any of the teams

Agree with you, and it appears that the staff does too, hence the half dozen or more 2013 CB offers already. I think Neal, if he signs up, will get more than a cursory look at corner too. I would be glad to see Reeves on the roster; just wish we already had some OTs verballed of course.
