New linebacker tough on the mat

| | Comments (3)

Nittany Lion recruiting nuts know Glenn Carson is the only linebacker in the recently-signed, 27-member class of 2009.

And he's got lots of potential. He's a four-star talent who also had scholarship offers from Notre Dame, Stanford, Boston College, North Carolina State, Maryland and Rutgers.

He's big enough (6-foot-3, 220 pounds) and skilled enough to become another great one at Linebacker U.

But he's also pretty good at a second sport: wrestling.

The New Jersey kid (Southern Regional High) finished second in the state the past two years at 215 pounds and just claimed his third-straight Region 6 title. And he dominated again, pinning his opponent in just 1:04.

So now he will get a third shot at that state title.
