Date Posted: 09:16:35 02/16/14 Sun Landed 3 recruits last night at psu's junior day. More could be coming soon. Write ups below. Kamonte Carter Gaithersburg (Md.) defensive end Kamonte Carter was a Penn State lean long before James Franklin took over in Happy Valley, and the four-star prospect according to the 247Sports Composite committed to the Nittany Lions on Saturday while on campus for junior day. Carter confirmed the news via text message with Lions247. "I committed because it has everything I'm looking for in a school - academics, good football and I love the energy," said Carter. The 6-foot-4, 235-pound junior chose the Nittany Lions over scholarship offers from East Carolina, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan State, N.C. State, Nebraska and Pittsburgh, among others. He is the No. 6 prospect in Maryland according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. He is the No. 22-ranked athlete nationally. Carter had 16 sacks as a junior, despite missing a few games with a minor knee injury. Ryan Bates Warminster (Pa.) Archbishop Wood offensive lineman Ryan Bates came to Penn State on Saturday for the Nittany Lions' first junior day with the school as his top choice. The Top247 prospect committed to head coach James Franklin before leaving campus. "There isn't a place I'd rather be than Penn State," he said in a text message. "Glad to be part of the family!" The 6-foot-5, 280-pound prospect is the No. 146 prospect in the country according to 247Sports. He is the No. 5 player in Pennsylvania and the No. 16 offensive tackle nationally, though he will likely play guard at Penn State. He chose the Nittany Lions over scholarship offers from Auburn, Miami, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Pittsburgh, Rutgers, South Carolina and Virginia, among others. Bates was an all-state selection as a junior. He helped lead Archbishop Wood to a state title in December. Jarvis Miller Suffield (Conn.) safety Jarvis Miller made the most of his weekend visit to Penn State, meeting with the new staff in State College on Friday and spending the day Saturday taking in the Nittany Lions' Junior Day festivities. Before he left town, he had made up his mind. Miller was offered by Penn State head coach James Franklin and became the Nittany Lions' first commitment in the Class of 2015 on Saturday afternoon. "I just committed, I'm pretty excited," he said. "They offered today. They pulled me aside and offered right there. It just felt right. It was the right college. The atmosphere, the coaches, it was a family atmosphere. I really feel good about Penn State and they're a program on the rise. "Most definitely this was the right pick. This was home." Boston College, UConn, UMass and Maryland were recruited Miller, but Penn State was his first and only scholarship offer. The 6-foot-2, 188-pound safety is a two-way standout in high school, Miller ran for 1,611 yards and 17 touchdowns as a junior. He also led his team with 81 tackles, adding three pass breakups and an interception. Miller had the third-highest SPARQ rating at the New Jersey Nike Football SPARQ Combine held on Feb. 1. At the combine he clocked a 4.64-second laser-timed 40-yard-dash, a 4.25-second pro agility and a 32.5-inch vertical jump. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
