KSU football gets first verbal commit for 2013 class
Just one day after touring Kent State on an official visit last weekend, Pennsylvania nose guard Tyler Haddock verbally committed to play for the Golden Flashes Sunday - news that began to make the rounds by Monday afternoon.
The 6-foot, 300-pound junior is a two-year starter for the defending Class AAA champion Spartans at Montour High School.
"He went (to KSU), liked what he saw and had a good time," Montour coach Lou Cerro told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. "So he decided to commit."
Although the Flashes were the first to offer Haddock a scholarship, he'd received interest from nearby Pitt, as well as Cincinnati and Georgia Tech.
According to a source close to KSU's program, Haddock is the first commit for the team's 2013 class.
