In response to mrjames
Disappointing another target didn't choose Penn (not that there is any shame to losing a kid to Bucknell since they are a great program). That said, it is kind of interesting that Funk spoke so highly of Penn in that last article, but hadn't visited officially yet and would be visiting "in the near future". Then, without an official visit he picked Bucknell.
That could of course simply be that he loved Bucknell and wanted to go for it (new offer to Horton seems to indicate that this wasn't expected). I have no inside info whatsoever, but I wonder where he was in priority for Penn staff because we have a lot of offers to wings. For now I'll just be curious to see how it all plays out...
