The Bison got their first two football commitments over the last 24 hours:

1. Alex Barnard 5-11 185 RB/CB/KR (OH); Offers from Cornell and Brown - From Cinci area. Was All-Southwest Ohio.

2. Ben Allen 6-2 220 LB/TE (OH) - Offer from Fordham - From Toledo area. Second team all-state in Division II (second largest of the seven divisions).


For some context, the majority of PL scholarship players don't have any offers yet by March of their junior year.


There have been a lot of offers over the past couple of months, which I will post in the near future.

  • Bison137 Said:


- Zack Tarburton 6-4 285 lb OL (PA) - Offer from Morgan St.






Tarburton becomes the 4th commitment for the Class of 2019. He plays for Pennridge H.S., north of Philly. Older brother is now a DE/LB for Penn State.

Zack Tarburton is ranked as the #72 player in PA (all positions) by Pennlive.com. Also of note is that previous Bison commit, DL Cade Brennan, is ranked #46 in the same analysis.

Bison got their 5th commitment today from QB Keyshawn Copeland who plays for CD Hylton, a strong program in Woodbridge VA. Copeland had a couple of big camp performances recently and picked up an offer from UVA. It's unclear why he hadn't picked up more than the three he had. He was a HS teammate of rising Bison soph Brandon Benson, who worked his way into last year's starting lineup at strong safety.

Copeland played for a run-oriented team last year, but still threw for 1600 yards and 23 TD's. During his Virginia visit, he clocked a 4.52 40 and also reportedly has a 4.48. Was ranked by one Virginia recruiting source as the 4th best junior in the state.

A couple of articles:

The Clash of the Titans Showcase give Keyshawn Copeland a boost

Not sure, but it definitely seems to be a legitimate offer. He picked it up during a recent visit, and it was reported on several Virginia sites.

Committed to the Bison today. Plays for Shawnee HS , which traditionally has been one of the stronger programs in NJ. Had four INT's last season and is likely being viewed as a SS or LB. Also played for Shawnee's Group 4 basketball championship team.

Early signing date begins on December 19th. Haven't updated this in quite awhile, but there have been at least four more commitments:

** RJ Mehan 6-5 265 lb OL (OH) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL NOVEMBER.
** Brent Jackson 6-1 185 lb Safety (TX) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL DECEMBER; Offers from Air Force, Brown, Incarnate Word, SW OK
** Justin Murray 6-1 185 lb CB (TX) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL DECEMBER; Offers from Syracuse, Air Force, Princeton, Louisiana,
** Gavin Pringle 5-11 165 lb CB (MD) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL NOVEMBER; had at least one other unidentified offer.

Two offers from Air Force and one from Syracuse. Not sure about the terms of the Syracuse offer.


The known commitment list - which may be missing a player or two - looks like this:

** Ben Allen 6-2 220 LB/TE (OH) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL IN MARCH; Offer from Fordham - From Toledo area. Second team all-state in Division II (second largest of the seven divisions).
** Alex Barnard 5-11 185 lb RB/CB/KR (OH); COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL IN MARCH; Offers from Yale, Georgetown, Dartmouth, Stetson, Columbia, Cornell, and Brown - From Cinci area. Was All-Southwest Ohio.
** Cade Brennan 6-4 250 lb DL (PA) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL IN JUNE; Offers from Army, Elon, Bryant, Morgan St.; ranked #46 of all rising seniors in PA by PennLive.com.
** Keyshawn Copeland 6-3 180 lb QB (VA) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL IN JULY; Offers from UVA, St. Francis; ranked #4 of all rising seniors in VA by one site.
** Eric Holsinger 5-11 170 lb CB (OH) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL IN AUGUST; Offer from Brown
** Brent Jackson 6-1 185 lb Safety (TX) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL DECEMBER; Offers from Air Force, Brown, Incarnate Word, SW OK
** RJ Mehan 6-5 265 lb OL (OH) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL NOVEMBER.
** Justin Murray 6-1 185 lb CB (TX) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL DECEMBER; Offers from Syracuse, Air Force, Princeton, Louisiana,
** Gavin Pringle 5-11 165 lb CB (MD) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL NOVEMBER; had at least one other unidentified offer.
** Jonathan Searcy 6-2 195 lb S/WR (NJ) - Offer from Bryant
** Zack Tarburton 6-4 285 lb OL (PA) - COMMITTED TO BUCKNELL JULY; Offer from Morgan St.; ranke #72 of all rising seniors in PA by PennLive.com


Tons of DB's and some players with good offers, but a bit short in terms of linemen, which was likely the position of greatest need.

My wife and I were at a holiday party this past weekend, and I started talking with a friend who is a local high school assistant football coach. He commented that they used to see recruiters from Bucknell Football on at least an annual basis, but they have not seen anybody from Bucknell for a few years. I found this very interesting.

Without naming the school, it is a Group IV (big) school located in South Jersey and has a very solid football tradition.

Any thoughts on this?

Small sample, but it looks like Ohio and Texas is yielding more recruits than NJ.

Surprising because of Susan's time in NJ and also the connections with Schiano

I think it is just happenstance. Bucknell is still very active in Central NJ and Sputh NJ, and has landed many players from those areas in the past few years. They currently have 22 players from NJ on the roster, plus student coach Cinjun Erskine, the highly recruited QB who had to give up the game due to a serious injury.
