Ex-Dukes won't alter new schools' status

Penn State called Gateway coach Terry Smith before practice Tuesday and said it was offering scholarships to receiver-defensive back Corey Brown (6 feet 1, 185 pounds) and linebacker Dorian Bell (6-2, 215). Pitt, Ohio State, Michigan and Alabama already had offered scholarships to both.

"They both have about 12 offers already," Smith said.

Smith believes both Brown and Bell could be ranked among the top 50 players in the country next year.

If we offered, he either has game speed, a misprint, or he has other aspects of his game that superseed the 40 time. If we have offered already, he is an elite WR.

With the receivers we are bringing in this year all seemingly around 6'3" (except for Lamaar Thomas), I would venture to guess the staff focuses on the smaller speed guys like Corey Brown and Ohio's Chris Fields. Just my own assumption, nothing really to go off of.

WOW! Gateway sure keeps cranking out talented kids, from Justin King in '05, to Jon, Ditto in '07, Hale and Saddler in this class and then these 2 in the next. I didn't notice so many recruits coming out of there before King, but maybe there were there and I just didn't notice.

Is that 40 time a misprint-we are talking about an elite WR/DB prospect here.....
I would assume it's more of a fluke. Never learned how to run a 40, did it once, and that's his time.
That's just my guess though. I doubt we would offer a WR this early if that was his "game speed"

Plenty of game speed, very fluid athlete (saw him in Pitt, then Akron). That time was in May (Pittsburgh combine), so we're talking about a HS soph.

I would wonder the latter as well. He made 1st team combine (only soph to do so) at WR at that same combine where he was timed at 4.7

2009 WR has impressive offer list

By Mike Farrell, Recruiting Analyst ? Rivals.com

Wide receiver Corey Brown is one of the most talented prospects at his position in the Class of 2009 and the Monroeville (Pa.) Gateway junior already has an impressive offer list.

The first schools to offer Brown were Pitt, Rutgers and Akron, and in recent weeks that list has grown rapidly.

"I've got (offers from) Pitt, Rutgers, Penn State, Akron, Tennessee, Boston College, Virginia, Syracuse and West Virginia," Brown said recently. "They're all even for now."
