[GoldenIsThyFame]

Offered yesterday.

Wisconsin, Nebraska, Michigan, Penn State, North Carolina, Virginia and Notre Dame are his favorites.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

I'm surprised Houston isn't in there

 

[Praytorian]

I like the way his eyes seemed to be in the backfield, without losing coverage.

 

[koonja]

I'm surprised Houston isn't in there

Houston only goes after 5-star WRs.

 

[IrishRugger2013]

Ah, yes this kid is from my high school!

 

[Buster Bluth]

The lack of a Houston offer is worrisome.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

The lack of a Houston offer is worrisome.

Oh no he has a Houston offer, but they aren't one of his top schools at this point.

Must have heard about the Lake Effect Snow Festival!

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Penn State is on top at the moment.

"It felt like home instantly."

 

[NDdomer2]

Young man has a lot of upcoming visits in a row, not that his "feeling at home" will necessarily change but after his 6 consecutive visits his opinion may be different.

 

[TerryTate]

On campus yesterday and today apparently.

 

[RuntheBall]

I saw BK giving a personal tour of the Gug and Loftus this morning. Was that with Devin or is someone else here this weekend as well?

 

[clashmore_mike]

I think someone else was scheduled for a three day visit starting today but don't recall who it was. Chances are it was Butler.

 

[IrishLax]

Please no more DC/MD kids. For many, many reasons.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

After reading all of this thread, the only thing I find worrisome is that he says Penn State feels like home. Does anyone know about this kids background?

sarcasm font.

 

[STLDomer]

He's there, tweeted about it

“@Devin7_Era: Chilling with these 
hawaiians at ND... its the life”

“@Devin7_Era: So diverse here.. I like it”

 

[GoldenIsThyFame]

Set his announcement date for May 12

 

[NDPhilly]

As of now he is a PSU lean but we'll see after his visit.

 

[Rack Em]

He's there, tweeted about it

“@Devin7_Era: Chilling with these*
hawaiians at ND... its the life”

“@Devin7_Era: So diverse here.. I like it”

He's clearly not at ND.

 

[Sherm Sticky]

I'm very impressed with his video...has big time FS written all over.

 

[NDPhilly]

IMO Butler > Bell

 

[Sherm Sticky]

IMO Butler > Bell

How about both?

 

[NDPhilly]

How about both?

Nah we will take one and then hold room for a elite guy like Vernon Hargreaves or Priest Willis.

 

[IrishLax]

I'd personally much rather have Bell. Maybe this is just me but I like the way Bell tackles on his film and it looks like he has superior closing speed.

WCAC is pretty stiff competition though and that might make Butler look a bit slow.... at the same time, the entire time I watch his film I think "why isn't he a step faster?" like most elite HS kids look on their tape.
