Penn State adds QB to '10 class; Jones fine

Robert Bolden, scout.com's eighth-best QB prospect, verbally committed to Penn State Friday morning at a news conference at his St. Mary Preparatory School in Lake Orchard, Mich.

Scout's Allen Trieu was on hand for the announcement. Bolden is the second QB in the class of 2010, joining western Pennsylvania's P.J. Jones.

Jones underwent ankle surgery earlier this week, but recently told Nittany Network's Bill Kurelic he'd be in camp next month.

"I'll be fine for the season," Jones said. "I'll be back for camp."

His father had said the injury could jeopardize his son's entire senior season.

Here's the Lions' 2010 recruiting class, along with the star-ranking, according to scout.com. It's expected to be a 19-member class

A traditionalist, he would like nothing more than to see Joe Paterno throw it back to his Brooklyn days and install the single-wing offense this season.

Nate Mink is a junior majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Daily Collegian and a 5-foot-10 sesquipedalian from Allentown who has tried to grow facial hair for 20 years. Sadly, he has been unsuccessful thus far. He is anxious to get a new driver's license in September and hopes the bartenders at Zanzibar in Ann Arbor believe he's 21.

Wayne Staats is a senior majoring in journalism and history and is a football reporter for the Collegian. He previously covered the baseball and women's basketball teams. He never made it far playing competitive football, unless Nerf football in grade school counts.

Matt Brown is a senior majoring in journalism and is the Collegian's football editor. He previously covered the Penn State men's basketball, baseball and women's soccer teams. While a fan of most sports, he thinks the 14 Saturdays of the college football season are the best 14 days of the year and all 34 bowl games are worth watching.
