Two future Penn State quarterbacks were invited to the prestigious Elite 11 camp in San Juan Capistrano, Calif., though only one can attend.
Michigan's Robert Bolden, who gave a verbal commitment to the Nittany Lions last Friday, will make the trip from July 20-23 to learn and compete against 11 other quarterbacks from across the nation. Sto-Rox High's Paul Jones, also a Lion commitment, was invited to the camp but cannot go after recent surgery for an ankle injury.
Both will be high school seniors in the fall.
This group was selected from more than 1,000 high school QBs who attended regional camps. Fans can even follow the closed-door, four-day event next week by visiting www.Elite11.com.
Daryll Clark, Penn State's starting quarterback this season, will be one of the college counselors at the camp, along with Colt McCoy (Texas), Juice Williams (Illinois), Cody Hawkins (Colorado) and Zac Robinson (Oklahoma State).
Past Elite 11 participants include current NFL QBs Mark Sanchez, Matt Cassel, Matthew Stafford, Troy Smith, Vince Young and Matt Leinart.
Bolden (6-foot-4, 205 pounds) will compete against these quarterbacks: Austin Hinder (committed to California), Barry Brunetti (West Virginia), Blake Bell (Oklahoma), Chandler Whitmer (Illinois), Devin Gardner (Michigan), Jake Heaps (BYU), Jess Scroggins (undecided), Joe Boisture (Michigan State), Nick Montana (Washington), Phillip Sims (Alabama) and Tyler Bray (undecided).
