Got some follows going on. Love his film. Moves great for a guy this size, at his age.

8G ... 60 Tkl ... 11 TFL ... 6 Sks

Will camp at ND next month. No mention of PSU in interviews, not camping there as of now. Dad and uncle played at Rhode Island. Both played at Central Bucks, same HS as Josh Adams.

Needs an offer right now.

Does he go to Pennridge or Central Bucks?

Pennridge. Dad & Uncle went to Central Bucks.

 

[fightingirish26]

Nitpick, but the dad and uncle played for CB West, which was a state football power at the time. Adams went to CB South, which did not yet exist when the older Picciotti's were in school. Pennridge is nearby, maybe one school district over from Central Bucks.

West won 59 straight during the 1997-2000 seasons.

Got a lot more twitter action recently. Still not sure what exact day he's camping yet.

Added Maryland & Rutgers offers in the past month.

Yep. I misread the story. Confused me about the new schools as you pointed out.

Top 10 under the radar guys I'm interested in this season

Is Dustin his dad or his uncle?

Dustin Picciotti was an absolute monster fullback for CB West in the late 90s. He originally went to Pitt and transferred to Rhode Island. I think he called it quits due to concussions.

Dustin was on Coach Mike Pettine Sr.'s last CB West team. Dustin was quite a free spirit. LOL

Uncle. Started at Pitt, finished at URI.

They don't make football players that look like that anymore...

I loved the big shoulder pads with the neck roll, man I miss the '90s.

For those outside the state of PA, CB West had a football program that scared people. I was a kid in the 90s and can't rattle off all the records and state titles, but it was a power. Then the area grew so much that the district now has 3 high schools and talent split up.

It was big, strong, athletic dudes that ran, ran, and then ran some more. 3rd and 9 was like 3rd and 2.

Got to be nicknamed Picc six right?

That's what we all looked. My dad would not let me have the dark facemask visor, though. Too "urban" for his white suburban boomerness.

Visors were for sissies!

Nah, if he signs with us he'll be Five Star Phil...

Family makes excellent pasta, guaranteed.

How you going to mention those but not mention the belly shirt jerseys?

 

[BobbyMac]

Read somewhere that WV may be the surprise leader? PSU was definitely the early leader.

Also get the impression from the ND media and off platform sources that Freeman really likes him.

PSU definitely had a lead early. 1 of a handful of guys that could join Bowen in '23

I miss the tear away jersey's. Imagine the yards KW would have wearing a tear away!

Picked up offers from USC, Michigan, and Nebraska recently.

 

[Irishnuke]

He's been bumped up to 4 star, #10 ILB and #208 overall on Rivals since his thread started. Still a 3 star on 247

 

[NDFAN2008]

Staff is only taking 1 more LB it’s been reported is he a take?

Well he's visiting end of the month. I'd imagine he is. Him and Bowen are studs. Then maybe best available to push to 3 perhaps

Rutgers 247 guy says ND looks to be the team to beat.

My personal algorithm still says PSU.

Here's a twist:. I hear that PSU was leading until Brent Pry left for VA Tech. Now ND is out in front because Phil is not a huge fan of Manny Diaz and vice versa. Look for VA Tech to make a push now however.
