Floyd is Out, Coxson stirring up trouble

To keep this one simple and short on the recruiting front, we have big news from two of the top five guys on our recruiting list.

The bad news:

Sharrif Floyd, the top rated defensive tackle in the country from Philadelphia, PA, has recently informed the coaching staff at Penn State that we are no longer in the running for his services for the next four years. Floyd will look to chose between the Gamecocks, Ohio State, and Florida.

On top of that news, Adrian Coxson, the second rated wide receiver in the country by Scout, recently took a visit to Florida. Coxson, who was one of Penn State's first verbal commitments of the 2010 class, says that he is still committed but that he is just taking his visit just to be certain. On top of enjoying his visit to Florida, Coxson has one more official on the table to Georgia, and after that he is not certain if he is going to take any other officials.

The good news:

Coxson has said that he will take an official to Penn State, and that he stays actively in touch with Larry Johnson. If there is anything that is great about this situation is that we will be that last school to leave an impression on him. Look for Larry Johnson to continue to establish a strong relationship with Coxson, and look for him to stay committed to the Nittany Lions.

Finally, my advice to Adrian Coxson would be to commit to Penn State, as the team is in great need of an impact player at wide receiver. The team is looking to bolster its special teams and raw talent at the receiver position. With our spread "pass happy" offense, Coxson also has more of an opportunity to develop into an NFL prospect, rather than sit back and rarely be a factor in an option style offense for Florida. For your own sake, and for the sake of Nittany Nation Adrian, don the Blue and White.
