He doesn't want to go anywhere else or look anywhere else. He wants to be a hometown kid. With the recruiting class Pitt got this year, it's really kind of a no-brainer. They're going to be good.

Last year, we were 160 pounds, this year we're 200 pounds. It's a beautiful thing. Hopefully we can build on this.

He's definitely the best player that has ever come out of Keystone Oaks. He's a hard-working kid that earned everything he is getting right now. His makeup will fit well with the Navy.

Our offensive line just moves people. Nick is our little ball of energy.

People scoff at that, but they're legit. We sent his tape out and all 122 are on there.

(Brad) came over and we watched the Army-Navy game on TV and he got sucked in a little bit. When you go there, your jaw just drops and he knew it was for him.

He knows where he wants to be. Last summer, he went to a football camp there and he loved it. It was the perfect fit for him. He didn't have to look any further than his own back yard.

And he had all day to throw.

Anyone that watches our game wants to know who No. 54 is. He just sticks out. He's a real dominant kid. He knows how to play with leverage. He's nasty. You talk about the (prototypical) Western Pa. kid, that's what he is. He goes to the whistle.
