Coxson chooses PSU

Penn State scored a major verbal Thursday when Baltimore wide receiver Adrian Coxson announced he would be attending Happy Valley in 2010.

Coxson, a 6-foot-1, 194 pounder, is ranked a four-star prospect by Scout.com, which has him rated as the nations No. 21 wideout for the class of 2010.

He shined at Baltimore City College this past fall, grabbing 40 balls for 987 yards and a dozen touchdowns en route to first team All-City honors.

Gerald Cadogan, Jordan Norwood, Tyrell Sales, Lydell Sargeant and Anthony Scirrotto all went undrafted, but each was quick to find an NFL team.

Cadogan and Scirrotto will reminisce with Dan Connor on the Panthers, while Sargeant reunites with Aaron Maybin and Paul Paul Posluszny in Buffalo.

Norwood will head to Cleveland and Sales will go to Indy.

Meanwhile, the Nittany Lions' two highest draftees checked into mini-camps sporting new numbers.

Aaron Maybin is wearing No. 58 for the Bills (check out photo No. 12).

In Detroit, Derrick Williams is hoping 13 is the lucky number to turn around the Lions' fortunes.
