And the college programs recruiting Thompson, who has 20 offers, have remained interested.

The schools that offered early – like Syracuse -- have remained true to the offers. Former Monmouth and Marlboro head coach Bob Acosta is wooing Thompson for Syracuse.

“What coaches like about Tyler is that he is a four-down back,” Kline said. “He run around you. He can run through you. He is an excellent receiver and he can pass protect. There are a lot of high school backs, who put up big numbers. There aren’t many willing to block.

“He’s actually added offers in the spring,” Kline said. “West Virginia made an offer. Michigan, Nebraska and Penn State are all interested and want to see tape from the first three or four games.”

“I’m going to show them what they want to see in those first three games (at [URL='http://highschoolsports.nj.com/school/neptune-neptune/football/']Neptune[/URL] followed by [URL='http://highschoolsports.nj.com/school/wall-wall/football/']Wall[/URL] and[URL='http://highschoolsports.nj.com/school/manasquan-manasquan/football/']Manasquan[/URL] and home),” Thompson said.
