Official Antonio Tripp COMMITS

[AUcane]

word from PSU is that everything cooled b/w Tripp and PSU late fall/Jan. Whether or not it was PSU cooling b/c they had other committed IOL guys or Tripp wanting to explore other options is unclear. But, he was expected to be a commit last summer/fall.

That school is a big time PSU feeder school, fwiw.

I love taking kids like this early. Yeah hes not a top 10 OL in the country but hes a great piece and hes a trench bully from an area we want to get our boots on the ground in. (DC/Baltimore area)

For all the talk of the amount of 5* kids that are on our radar..the reality is, we cant have 70% of the class on ice until December waiting on these guys either. Fill up that other 30% with great pieces like Tripp along the way. Plus the kid seems like he is all in barring a complete collapse this season. (6-6/7-5 type record)

Kid will be a cane regardless of record watch.

Good to see us grabbing some linemen from BIG10 country.

Recruiting is going to be so much fun with Mario as HC, going forward at minimum a Top 15 class should be the expectation

top 10

Do coaches always give recruits families their own personal I.D Badges on recruiting trips? If not thats a great idea by Mario

Maybe some things have changed/moved, but a few years ago (ten?) when I got my "alum" Cane card, you had your picture taken in the office on the ground floor of the parking garage at Mark Light Stadium, which is not far from the Hecht. I wonder if that's now a standard part of the check-in/tour. It's a nice touch.

Can Ped State blame Manny? I hope so...

I want to see the next 6 commitments from ol/dl. I know everyone loves the skill positions but we ain’t winning it all unless we bring in the trenches

Load up Mario.

WE NEED EVERYBODY!

yeah, it's either one of those two guys, absolutely. The stuff Wise did in shuffling that Oline before the 88 Orange Bowl with guys suspended and injured was unreal.

It’s still strange to me that Maryland is now considered Big 10 country.

It’s still strange to me that Maryland is now considered Big 10 count.

I'm in PA, yeah it's weird watching them in the Big10 in basketball

Once he builds up the program I agree but until then I'm fine with classes in that 10-15 Range

Mario knows what he's doing. Even the top programs drop out of the top 10 when they don't need so many players. Regardless of where we land, we will get lots of talent.

@TrumpyCane , you know what to do, you know what to do...

We won't know since we going 15-0.

I got caught up in the discussion and forgot to say ...

Welcome to THIS U!!!!

Shades of Danny Isadora.

 

[uprising]

He was recruiting top 10 classes to Oregon. #7, #12, #6. To Oregon!

He's best known for being a relentless recruiter.

Now he's at Miami where we've had some of the worst coaches and on field success and still continue to recruit top 15 classes.

I expect top 3-5 classes consistently. Maybe just top 10 on some off years but that'll be the exception.

How cool is this? They got Mirabal a box to stand on so he could get in the picture.
