Ty Howle commits to the blue and white
Howle was Bunn’s starting center last season and won first-team All-State and All-Conference honors. One of the reasons he committed early was so he can focus on his senior campaign.
Its never too early when it comes to recruiting. The Lions add North Carolina all-state offensive lineman Ty Howle after his visit on Easter weekend.
“This was a big family decision,” Howle said. “We sat down this morning, my whole family, and we really felt there was no place I could go to get a better education. And we love the tradition of Penn State football. State College is just beautiful; it has a small-town feel but has everything you could look for in a city.”
LaschOut has a detailed scouting report on Ty, but if you still doubt his ability to excel at Penn State, he is a stud in the classroom as well:
Howle currently carries a 3.9 GPA in his core courses and overall GPA of 4.2 thanks to several honors classes he has completed. He intends to begin his college academic career in a general science major so he has options when he finally settles on a post-football profession. Right now his thoughts are ranging from chemical engineering to pre-med.
Rivals reports that Ty Howle already held offers from Penn State, Navy and East Carolina and was being courted by Auburn’s defensive tackle’s coach Kerry Neal, Maryland and Georgia Tech.
