Ah, the day that keeps the fax machine alive! I had to send an expense report in the other day and really had to think about how to do it. It's probably been a few years! Anyway best of luck to all the area athletes going to the next level!

[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]Justin Weller said James Franklin called him back in October.[/font]
[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]“He just told me they liked my film a lot,” Weller said Sunday. “He said they saw me as a playmaker, and a guy that can make a difference one way or the other.”[/font]
[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]And, the senior Wilson wide receiver said, he couldn’t get those words out of his head.[/font]
[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]So, Sunday, Weller said he’s heading to Penn State as a preferred walk-on.[/font]
[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]He said he chose that chance with the Nittany Lions over opportunities with Yale, Cornell, Penn and Valparaiso.[/font]
[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]The 6-foot, 185 pounder caught 43 passes for 533 yards and eight touchdowns last season.[/font]
[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]“It’s extremely exciting,” Weller said. “I think the Penn State coaches really believe in what I can do, and that just meant the world to me. To have a chance to go there is just kind out of this world. I believe I can play there, too. I just have to work hard enough.”[/font]
[font="Benton Sans", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]As a walk-on, Weller said, he’s aware that he will have his work cut out for him[/font]

Gave up Ivy League to be a walk on? Kid from Mt. Lebanon gave up Yale the other day to walk on at Michigan.

He'll save about $35,000 per year.

Collegedata.com is saying Michigan out of state tuition is $45,410 and Yale tuition is $49,480. Looks like a difference of $4 grand per year, not 35 grand.
