Paul Jones is one of two top QBs heading to PSU.
Difficulties in signing a blue-chip quarterback was the thing that held back Penn State football recruiting classes for some time. Now that the Nittany Lions have brought in three in two years, the position is still the source of issues. “I don’t know,’’ PrepStar senior editor Phil Fritz said, “how they’re going to get all of these guys on the field.’’ That’s the kind of problem that’s good to have: Too much of a good thing. Landing signal-callers Paul Jones of Pittsburgh and Robert Bolden of Michigan to compete with current freshman Kevin Newsome for snaps over the next few years was definitely the highlight of Penn State’s 2010 recruiting class. Some are calling it the best quarterback class in the country. Signing Jones and Bolden wasn’t the only good thing the Lions accomplished, though.
