East Coast standout eyes the West

There once was a saying go west young man, go west. Could one of the east coast’s top defensive tackle prospects be hearing that siren call? Defensive tackle Tyler Stockton (6-1, 290, 4.9) from Princeton (N.J.) Hun School has interest in western schools and has received his first offer from a Pac 10 school.

“I’m very interested in West Coast schools and I wouldn’t mind going out there for college,” Stockton said. “UCLA Coach Rick Neuheisel offered me a scholarship and I have interest in UCLA. I’m also interested in Cal and Washington.

DT Stockton up to a dozen offers
By Mike Farrell, Recruiting Analyst
Mar 18, 10:00 am EDT

Offers are picking up for Princeton (N.J.) The Hun School defensive tackle Tyler Stockton. The 6-foot-1, 290-pounder pulled in three more offers recently including two huge ones.

“I got offers from Tennessee, Northwestern and Notre Dame,” he said. “I’m really excited about all of them.

“I got a chance to speak with Coach Weis from Notre Dame. It was an honor. My coach told me to call him and I was shocked, I didn’t know what for. I went to camp twice there last year and I got a good vibe from the coaches. Coach Weis told me when he saw my tape, he couldn’t believe it was the same kid he saw at camp.”

How big of an offer is the one from the Irish?

“It’s huge especially to me,” he said. “I don’t have any favorites, but Notre Dame has the tradition and they have everything. Everybody knows Notre Dame and they are always playing on TV, it’s exciting.”

...

Stockton isn’t the only talent at The Hun School in 2009. He is joined on the defensive line by stud end Anthony LaLota. Would the two like to play together in college?

“I’d love to play with Anthony,” he said. “We had a really good year last year and got to practice together. We’ve talked about it a little bit already.

“A lot of coaches keep asking if we’re a package deal. We haven’t talked about it enough, but it would be an honor to play with him.”

Can't be anything but good news- hope we get both the jersey boys.

 

[mat33]

he isn't that highly rated, but I don't know why. He is huge, quick, and nasty. I would love to land this kid, he will be a special player. I think that he has the size for NT but the quickness for DE so I don't know what he is being recruited as.

At only 6'1", I bet he is going to be recruited as a NT. I am not a big fan of "package deals", but if it means we get 2 DL, I am for it! CW and CB, New Jersey may be the place for our one-stop shopping D-line needs!

 

[IrishGrizz]

BD, after reading the last story from yesterday, sounds like others are throwing the package deal talk out, not the teammates. Stockton said the 2 of them hadn't talked about that specifically, but he would be honored to continue playing along side Lakota. Doesn't exactly sound like they are a pair-tied together at all.

Offer the package deal now and often ...... this is a great pair badly needed at ND. I assure you that there will be at least 10 schools offering the package.

 

[IrishGrizz]

I don't doubt it, however, I get the feeling that Stockton is going whereever he feels is the best for him and if Lakota comes -bonus. I just don't see it as any deal maker or breaker. FWIW

 

[SoCalDomer]

pssst... Grizz... it's LaLota.

 

[NDsuperfan09]

Dare I say it, he reminds me of Omar Hunter. T-Minus 3............2................1........until WWB responds.

 

[IrishGrizz]

pssst... Grizz... it's LaLota.

Sometimes I kill myself- of course its LaLota, silly goose. I was a ... just checkin who was payin attention..., yeah, thats the ticket!

 

[IrishGrizz]

I called him Lakota all day long, too. You were the only one to help me out there, SoCal. Now I feel like I walked around all day w my zipper down. :embarrass

Oh, what the heck- won't be the last time.

 

[SoCalDomer]

at first i thought it was a typo. then i noticed you do it a couple of times. no worries.

 

[IrishGrizz]

I kept remembering his name as similar to Dakota. So, I'll try not to mis-remember his name incorrectly next time.

Quick off the snap, fast (for a big fella), relentless, nasty, n oh yea A FREAKING BEAST! Follow the link to see the high school version of Barry Bonds (pic #2)...

Welcome to the Family son! Tyler did infact commit to Charlie this morning. Thtere will be more commits this weekend trust me.

 

[Fbolt]

Awesome-this Spring Game is huge for ND. First Wood and now Stockton. Looking good.

 

[SoCalDomer]

i can't sticky or move the thread, but i did change the title to reflect today as the day he committed.

edit: or maybe i didn't. oh well.

just watched the guys video on rivals, i had not heard of him before but wow, impressive. he'll be getting a lot of attention his senior year because he's 290 solid muscle and quick and fast. watch his film and ask yourself if you've ever seen a dlineman all over the field like this guy is.

welcome tyler.

 

[leprechaun4life]

I haven't been following recruiting much, so this was entirely unexpected for me. Welcome home, tyler.

 

[ndfan1153]

Just my humble opinion, but I think he's a bigger pickup than Cierre Wood. I could not be happier about Stockton!

 

[OCIrish]

Welcome to the Family son! Tyler did infact commit to Charlie this morning. Thtere will be more commits this weekend trust me.

Who then, possibly, do you see commiting by the end of the weekend? Maybe Barret, but, I'm not sure who all was on campus this weekend. I would love to see more commits, that is for sure, and am ecstatic about Tyler commiting this weekend. We've had so many shortcomings in years past in terms of DL, we're going to be thin this year, unless some of the underclass really step up and lend a hand.

Welcome to the family Tyler.

 

[Rocket's Rocket Fan]

Great news. Welcome to ND Tyler.

 

[Epitome]

From what I heard Barrett was set to publicly commit this weekend. I'm not sure why he hasn't pulled the trigger yet. Although if it doesn't happen today I think it will in the end. As for LaLota and Bullard we are right in the mix with them as well. Holloman supposedly wasn't having as good of a time as some of the other recruits.

welcome tyler.

First, I would like to say welcome aboard Tyler. Next, I would like to say that KamaraPolice was " dead-on" with the analysis on Tyler's highlight films on Rivals. This kid is going to be a good one. Great at using his hands, excellent first step, nice pad level and a motor that won't quit are all qualities Stockton will bring to ND.

 

[IrishGrizz]

WTG Tyler. Hope he has alittle influence over LaLota- and we eventually offer and get him too. More Jersey guys is a great idea.
