Definitely a good get for UPS.....got word outa' Oakland a few days ago that Jordon Hill DT from Steelton has 'unofficially' switched his commitment from RU to the Panthers! Hill is in Oakland today; stay tuned.

Let me just say this...

This is a huge, huge, huge, huge, huge, HUGE get for the Nits!!!!! When I saw the Hodges videos back in like the spring, I REALLY wanted that kid at Peen State (as Vman called it). I am very excited about this. This kid is a 4-yr starter w/o any shadow of a doubt because Rubin and Scirrotto are graduating. Plus it puts another chink in the Rutgers armor, a program that has been stealing our recruits. Rutgers losing Hodges is massive. I think I peed a little bit when he switched commitment today.

Are you ready for G-Hod? Are you ready for the JIHAD?

I'm not sure why PSU didnt pursue Hill any harder, but this is a bigtime steal for Pitt. Any time we can keep Rutgers from getting "too good" is a great thing for the PA schools. We both need New Jersey!
