Kid is clearly pumped about coming to State. Just our kind of young man...he wants us because we will make him work hard and become a better player, better man.

It is amazing to see where our program/university is as a whole in comparison to Mullen's first year. Our stadium expansion was done as well as it possibly could have been. Our practice facilities continue to improve. I remember a lengthy stretch where we failed to actually have any players move on the the NFL. Now it is commonplace and player development has become a trademark of our program under Dan Mullen. It's a huge recruiting pitch and it is cool to see it mentioned in recruiting articles. And I'm aware of some of our OL struggles at times. Even though they have occasionally struggled and the talent level is lower than other positions, we still have sent a few OL to the NFL.

Jackson
Day (practice squad?)
Clausell (practice squad)

And some projections show Rankin as a potential first rounder. It's good to see recruits taking notice of the opportunity here.
