Johnson, Foster, Boyd

  • Does anybody know where these guys have pitt on their lists? It seems like johnson is a pitt/psu battle, foster used to seem like a pitt/osu battle but bama might be sneaking in there, and im clueless about tyler boyd. Any insight? Thanks

  • Johnson and Foster will go to Pitt.

    Latest I heard about Boyd is that Stanford & Miss St are in the mix for him. Not sure where Pitt stands with him.

    How can you be so sure?

    Sorry BG. I'm not buying this Stanford thing. That's a long way from Clairton. Speaking of which. Where is Dizzy Green these days?

    BTW. Look at my quote from BG and tell me where this "& amp " comes from. I re-did the quote 3 times and it happened all 3 times.

    Edit. I swear on my screen it had & amp after Stanford on my screen before I posted. WTF?

    What makes you say that? You hearing something that makes you say that?

  • FWIW, Foster has us in his top three with Bama, and Pitt apparently.

    FWIW, Johnson has been on campus at PSU back to back weeks, and we have apparently started to close the gap between y'all and us. Although IMO, y'all still lead.

    We're also recruiting Tyler Boyd.

    JMO, but we should be mentioned with all three prospects, because we have a legitimate shot with all of them. Not a great chance admittedly, but we do have a chance.

  • We're 3rd for Foster, probably at best second for Boyd, and IMO second for Johnson (although it is getting closer)

    Pappy, don't know but will make a call and find out what the deal is with him

    goadie

  • I think he probably will be too, I'm just saying that we do have a chance with him.

    No need for the attacks, just here to talk football and recruiting. I have been nothing but respectful to everybody here on the board, no reason we can't get along.

    You're a little dicey there Texas. Will give you the benefit for now but don't mess with goadie. Just saying.

    waltspappy

  • I'm not messing with anybody, or at least I didn't intend to.

    I apologize if I did.

  • Im not confident with pitts chances at boyd. Im fairly confident with foster and im getting nervous about johnson. I think pitt lands foster and johnson and tra'von chapman to go with scott orndoff and hopefully 2 or 3 more recievers and 2 or 3 more o linemen. This class needs to be offensive heavy and both lines need serious depth.

  • I agree with texas, lets keep it football.

    I thought the PSU guy was being pretty reasonable, I dont think we should let this site devolve into a place for personal attacks like the Scout and Rivals boards.

    No personal attacks but I for one am sick and tired of ANY PSU troll thinking that they get every kid. I stand by my statement

    goadie

  • I'm not trolling, just stating that we do have a chance with these guys.

    I don't think we pull all of them, maybe one if we're lucky. But there is a chance.

    dude, he brought up 3 recruits.. and admitted that PSU probably wasnt first for any of them much less getting them! he just wanted to talk football and recruiting.

    i think its good for you that pitt can keep their local talent, especially when you put out kids like johnson and foster! but you still gotta work for it haha

    Bring on the football talk (the site needs it) but don't deny you're not trolling. Is the blue and white board broken? I would never visit a state penn site. Never. I stand by goadie.

  • I really am not trying to troll.

  • The Nitters haven't used any of their famous lines yet, like not "Penn State material" (which is definitely a complement these days), or inventing character or academic issues as a sour grapes knee jerk mechanism, so there isn't any problem here. There is a long way to go to signing day. Gracious hosts should be the norm until otherwise deserved. We can't assume they are like the trolls we have run into on the other sites.

  • Goadie - what makes you say Foster and Johnson will come to Pitt? I'd love it but I'm wondering what you're hearing.

    wanted to hear what you guys had to say about johnson. is it not common to see what both sides think? i think that breeds a more unbiased opinion

    Johnson and Foster will go to Pitt.

    That would be pretty amazing. If Pitt landed those 2, that would have to be two of the highest rated prospects in a class choosing Pitt in a long time.
