Marcus Lattimore Thread (2010 Signee)

[MBGCock]

we will put priorities on both the players, since ML and NJ are best friends the coaches will have to show them that they will take care of both of them not just ML, but also our coaches are damn good and they already are doing that!!!

Can someone with rivals read the article on the front page?

[Go Carolina]

He was very excited to sit with Wolford and Graham and watch film and discuss how we have a new commitment to run the ball. That's what gave him chills.....

He spent to whole day with Jay Graham. He talked some with Stephen Garcia. He said he got chills when Wolford told him how they were going to use him and how much emphasize we are putting on the running game. He says we have an excellent shot at making his top 5 when he cuts his list at the end of the summer.

Do you happen to know what Wolford said?

Nah but he showed Lattimore a lot of film of how he used his RB's at Illinois like Rashad Mendinghall.

Lattimore actually said that it gave him chills to know that we're putting a big emphasis on the run game now.

From ESPN's recruiting page (but I couldn't find anything on Marcus actually inside the link)

K. Fortt is talking to him about PSU.

I grew up loving the Lions, and both my parents are alum, so if any other school got him, I'd want it to be PSU. Bearing that in mind, there is no way he goes to Penn State: 1) Freezing; 2) FAR from home; 3) PSU's depth chart makes it more than just competitive, but unlikely that he'll see time as a starter before he's a junior - PSU is THAT deep at RB.

[carolinacoast]

I heard PSU may take only one rb this year,and they didn't think it would be Lattimore, but who knows what could happen.

If you're right, then they wouldn't be recruiting him hard anymore. They've already gotten one commitment at RB.

[GTjacket]

PSU still wants him. Who wouldn't turn down the chance to land one of the best RB in the nation.

[Jamie61190]

Yea, Lattimore is a definite take regardless of numbers.

[t8erh8er17]

I also was a Penn State fan growing up in the Harrisburg area. It's not THAT cold. It's not like Michigan say. It is a lot cloudier and rainier. I still have to believe we have the upper hand over PSU and any other school right now. Besides if it's chills he wants, he we have already provide that to him.

f*** penn state

I'm not sure if this has been posted and it doesn't say anything about us but this is a pretty cool little video of Marcus at a Nike camp in Athens. The first 2 minutes is all about him.
