HOLY COW!!!

Eric Shrive, OT from West Scranton (PA), successfully fooled everyone in the recruiting scene that is anyone including many fans that have followed his recruitment. Today, Shrive, the 5* #3 ranked OT in the nation, called Joe Paterno to tell him he wanted to be a Nittany Lion. Everyone thought he was a definite to Notre Dame with a slight chance of Illinois, but he decided to stay in State. He was Notre Dame fan growing up, but he said the relationships he built with the Penn State staff was too much for anyone else to overcome.

This is probably the best news PSU football recruiting could have received in a while: keeping the top OT in state during a year of major need.
