Mississippi RB Prospect Interested in Lions

Robert Elliott has already committed to Ole Miss, even though he is still a junior in High School. He says he is still a strong commit to Ole Miss, however Penn State has offered him a chance to come to camp. His mother would like to see him go since he has family in PA.
