Class of 2014 Thomas Holley

[bnoro]

Maybe when O'Brien does leave it will piss off Holley to go somewhere else; maybe that somewhere can be SU.

that somewhere wont be here

 

[baggerbob]

My question, if this is a dead period, wouldn't speaking to a recruit be a violation, and also be a violation of the deal Penn State made with the NCAA?

 

[oldpinepoint]

TH called BOB

However, 2.4.7Sports countered that thought: Current Penn State commit Thomas Holley told the site O’Brien “said he isn’t going. It’s not true.”

Obrien's going.

Any chance if Penn State coach leaves. You would think there would be a chance after he just lied to the kid

 

[CaliCuse]

Penn State can always sell its big crowds, atmosphere and relatively easy drive to NYC/New Jersey. Now it can sell nearby road trips to Rutgers and Maryland. Gonna be harder to beat for recruits down the road. Maryland was a big loss for SU and the ACC.

It was never going to easy and yes Maryland considering the geographics was a tough loss for the conference. Playing better will inspire the better recruiting. Its always been about winning and $.

If that's the case, he'll just commit to TCU.

really. TCU. LAAAMMMEE. At least go to UF or something

methinks the joke went over your head.

Think last year and a certain QB verbal commit whose name rhymes with Tack Mallen, and his actions after a certain Syracuse football coach left to the NFL.

 

[Jeepers]

Hmmm sounds familiar. I swear I have heard that before from someone? Can't put my finger on who though? Zach Allen, Gus Edwards, Malik Brown and LaRay Smith all thought it was true as well

Nailed it.

@NickdelaTorreGC: Thomas Holley told me today that #Florida would "probably be his leader" if he decommitted from Penn State.

What has a better chance...Hell freezing over or Thomas Holley committing to the Cuse? Like the hell chances better...

Pretty amazing how SU is not even on his radar. City kid with great friends starting all over the field, tremendous academic reputation, chance to play A LOT early in his career and lastly, a program on the rise with an inspiring and caring head coach. I get tradition and all that goes with it, but... Kinda a head scratcher.. Seems like a great kid, hope it works out for him..

 

[money3189]

only chance is if ND Florida or Ohio ST doesnt want him. LooooooooogShot

Larry Johnson will probably be the interim coach at Penn st. and convince him to stay commited along with the other commits. IMO as long as LJ is at Penn st. the top DT/DE's in the East coast will go there unfortunately. Holley seems like a great kid with alot of upside. But he is obviously influenced by the tradition of these tops programs.

I like those odds!

The marijuana part wouldn't surprise me at all.

For the life of me, I can't understand why he wouldn't give Syracuse a serious look if he did decommit. Disappointing to say the least.
