School has been a AA school (AAAA is biggest in PA) in the WPIAL. So he plays in a very competitive league. School will be moving up to AAA (PIAA is moving to 6 classes with 6A being the biggest) this year.

 

[BobbyMac]

I knew it had to be a small school with no football history. I mean Beaver Falls... never heard of it.

 

[irishnd31]

Beaver never heard of it.

They have played pretty well the last few years. They went 9-2 this past year. Losing to Aliquippa (AA state runner up and powerhouse) and Steel Valley who went 10-2 I believe. They play in District 7 which is the WPIAL (Western PA Interscholastic Athletic League). It's one of the strongest of the state. Even the small schools are some of the best in the state. Definitely plays some top small school competition.

Sorry Gower... that was a feeble troll attempt. Reps for the info. I read up on him and the program on Sunday. Apparently he was all state in basketball too.

I realized after I responded that was your attempt haha. No worries.

Seems like they have a decent basketball program as well. I think they won states in '13.

Here's something very interesting about Jeter. His brother is Sheldon Jeter who plays basketball for Pitt. He's 6-8. Coming out of high school, he signed at Vandy and was only 6-6. His cousin from Beaver Falls is Lance Jeter who had a nice basketball career at Nebraska. He was a 6-4, 225lb guard who played like a linebacker.

Donovan has gone from 6-3/6-4 when I first made a profile to a listed 6-6 now. He could end up a biggin' too. Wonder how he feels about the other side of the ball?

I haven't seen his basketball film but he averaged 17 as a soph and Beaver Falls has a very strong program.

This just got more interesting for me.

Any changes on who the serious contenders are?

 

[Big23Head]

Any changes on who the serious contenders are?

From the above article

The 6-foot-6, 260-pounder from Beaver Falls (Pa.) High said he talks to Ohio State, Pittsburgh, Penn State, Michigan, Notre Dame and Alabama the most, and he remains in frequent contact with UCLA.

 

[BobbyMac]

Any changes on who the serious contenders are?

From what I've seen it's Pitt. Penn St trails but Bama just offered a few weeks ago so let's see if that gets traction. He used to like OSU but that fell off, maybe as a result of their funnel being so full.

He doesn't seem to have a strong connection to the ND commits down closer to Pittsburgh.

Time will tell.

 

[BobbyMac]

I didn't know this was still a pretend thing?

Great wording btw. lol

[BobbyMac]

Pitt's the leader but if ND can grab another interior guy this year, this would be my pick. With his basketball background, I'd feel confident that he'd be the most athletic of all the D lineman. His brother's a 6-8 basketball player at Pitt. What if Donovan hit's the same late growth spurt? I'd give him to HH and let him have at it.

Releasing his Top 5 that he'll OV to sson.

[rtrn2glory]

I wonder how hard we're pushing with the guys we're already recruiting and have in the fold?

 

[Luckylucci]

Told BGI that ND is back in the mix and it's now a top 6. When asked why, he said "Kurt Hinish".

Apparently they are at an event in Pittsburgh together and Hinish is doin some recruiting.

 

[GBdomer]

Don't think he's a take for ND

He probably just had fun shooting the shit with Hinish today

 

[House16]

Please tell me you're kidding. A top 300 DT with a killer offer list from the PA pipeline isn't a take?

 

[Luckylucci]

Sounds like we are done for now at DT. The only names on the DL that are coming up are Echols and to some degree Paschal.

 

[ACamp1900]

Please tell me you're kidding. A top 300 DT with a killer offer list from the PA pipeline isn't a take?

Exactly freakin this... He's a consensus four star, top 20 DT and he's not a take???

 

[STLDomer]

Someone can embed but Lugg just tweeted a picture of a bunch of PA kids and a shamrock over each ND commit (Lugg, Hinish, Bauer, Jurkovec, Adams) and a shamrock and question mark over Jeter.

Two commits going after him? Would seem like a take to me.

 

[GBdomer]

Numbers are really tight right now and we already have two DT's committed. Same reason we stopped recruiting Wade-Perry. So no, I doubt he's a take right now. Doubt we are even recruiting him. Have you heard his named mentioned at all anywhere until Hinish saw him today?

[GreyWorm]

He'd be a take, but if you look at his Twitter, I am not sure he fits at Notre Dame.

 

[GBdomer]

All it took was Kurt Hinish saying in the group chat "Hey guys Donvan Jeter is interested in ND"

Whole group starts recruiting him

He's only visited Pitt and that was twice so who really knows recruiting this kid

 

[STLDomer]

If he's actually 6'6 260 (current Scout) and not 6'4 270 (profile) maybe it's as a SDE. He plays DE now.

 

[ACamp1900]

You take every single four star plus defensive front seven player you can get... All the times... Go without an o line if you have to damnit!!! All the front sevens!
