Would be great for him to commit to PSU.

Would be great for him and us if he were to commit to PSU.

Fixed.

Tom, any idea if PSU reviewed this DLs film or contacted him? Sometimes it's worth it to "take a flyer" on FCS players as an experienced depth piece if they have a couple years of eligibility.

I don't know for sure that they reviewed his film. But they have several guys on staff that were tasked with looking at film of prospects at positions they were interested in, so it's highly probable that they looked at his film.

As for contacting him, I really don't know whether they did or not. Sometimes agents leak info to recruiting sites, but universities usually are pretty closed lip about their actions, as they don't want the competition to know their level of interest. I don't recall anything leaking about with regard to St. John and PSU, but again, that's hardly definitive.

FWIW, Purdue has signed quite a few DL prospects out of the portal this year. They really seem to be putting energy and focus in landing DL guys.

Thanks Tom. Yes, I noticed Purdue has been very active in signing portal players.

LIU plays football?

They have an 11 game regular season and only four home games.

I like that PSU didn’t pursue him seeing as how he jilted Franklin once.
