"They got a lot of history. It isn't like they are a brand new school just doing this and doing that, they go way back with the same head coach and it's not like they are all just put together, they're a family and I like that a lot.
"It's a big time stadium and it's gets your adrenaline pumping when you think about it. There's going to be a lot of 'We are...Penn State' going from side to side."
Evan HailesFor the most part he is a space eater that can plant himself in a gap and gobble up action that comes his way, but you can't be too fast to judge this big boy. He is not consistent, but flashes good quickness off the ball and will shock you how quickly he can get moving at times.Hailes, who was recruited by Larry Johnson and Bill Kenney, was also offered by Boston College, Cal, Clemson, LSU, Michigan, Minnesota, N.C. State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Tech, and West Virginia.
When he can get to the shoulder of a blocker he can plow his way into the backfield. He does a good job of being able to get into gap and stay square. He moves well laterally between the tackles and can be disruptive player. When he brings his hands he can deliver a pop and knock a blocker on his heels.
Hustles around, but this kid is built to just do damage between the tackles. Can provide pressure as a pass rusher. He can bull rush and collapse pocket. Hailes is a big kid who at the root of it all is a two-gap run stuffer, but there is some more to his game and if he watches his weight he can give you solid reps with some disruption and big plays peppered in.
