Western Pa Recruiting News: Part 2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>What's up, my good people? I hope everyone has been enjoying the season thus far. Western PA always has a bunch of movement in recruiting, whether someone is being offered or committing. Since around late July, there have been numerous updates that I've missed, so I'm back again to inform y'all what's been going down on the recruiting front. This will be a two-part series, so relax and allow me to get you all caught up in the recruiting world.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>McLEE MAKES HIS COMMITMENT KNOWN</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AveryHawkins/status/1699847780267635153?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AveryHawkins/status/1699847780267635153?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["893526"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Cornell University, a D1 FCS program, recently received a big commitment from UT senior playmaker K'adrian Mclee. Uniontown's resident leader and versatile specialist made the switch to QB due to being the top athlete on the Red Raiders' squad. The 6'4, 200-pound athlete is dangerous whenever he touches the rock. McLee played WR last season and proved that he's capable of being a deep threat/red zone weapon. He's a gifted route runner and excels at Mossing smaller DBs at the highest point on 50/50 balls. Big Red just got a big puzzle piece for their program.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64fa7371253fa"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>BRENDAN ALEXANDER RECEIVES HIS FIRST POWER 5 OFFER</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AveryHawkins/status/1699083019171008807?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AveryHawkins/status/1699083019171008807?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["646684"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Brendan recently received his second FBS offer and his first Power 5 offer from the currently top 10 ranked Penn State. It's not hard to see why the Nittany Lions are after the ‘26 OL/DL. Brendan is physical, with the size and athleticism it takes to play at the highest college level. Alexander is another prospect who didn't disappoint in person this summer at the 2tenths Top 150 Camp. He has good flexibility and operates at a low pad level during competition. Brendan also has a D1 scholarship offer from Central Michigan. I think Brendan is also worthy of scholarships from local bluebloods Pitt u0026amp; WVU.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64fa74798b46f"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>CHRISTOPHER CLIMES GETS HIS FIRST D1 OFFER</strong> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AveryHawkins/status/1696534150013206529?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AveryHawkins/status/1696534150013206529?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["598631"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Elizabeth Forward's senior OL/DL received his first D1 offer to Youngstown State last week.

The junior O-lineman is very technical, plays with a low pad level, and has a strong physical punch. He's being courted by Penn State, Wisconsin, Syracuse, Maryland, West Virginia, and Mercer University, to list a couple of the programs after him.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64fa782532a3f"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Wmaines70/status/1673095424410898437?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Wmaines70/status/1673095424410898437?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"WYATT MAINES ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'5u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2405","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Hollidaysburg ","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Maines is an FBS-built prospect who plays with physicality and intensity.

Wyatt has a good punch and runs his feet upon contact, often causing pancakes. He plays shorter than his height of 6'5 but displays solid technique when kick sliding in pass protection.
