Glad to see CBJ going after all these giganotpithicus type of linemen!! I love having these big intimidating guys on the squad! I remember at the end of Fulmer's career, our OL looked like somewhere between a major high school program's line or a small FCS school's line!

Ride the Gibbs Hall elevator with those guys and then say that lol. My soph year when Moved in (07), I got on the elevator with some stuff and three linemen got on....the elevator was packed wall to wall and I was sandwiched in between them.

Gibbs Hall was built in 1962. At that time, the average size of players weren't usually that big. I would think the elevators might have been replaced, but doubt the shaft was enlarged.

"There's nothing really new in recruitment lately," he said. "I talked to Coach Warinner from Ohio State the other day and everything is good with them. I talked to Tennessee a little bit earlier this summer."

Jenkins has offers from schools like Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Virginia, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, Pittsburgh and Toledo with more on the way.

SKILL ASSESSMENT: Jenkins is a prototypical left tackle prospect and has a great build for the position and showed this summer at the Five-Star Challenge that, while he may not have the technique down, he has all the tools to be special.

STATUS WITH VOLS: Jenkins has yet to visit campus, but after a late summer offer from the Vols he's someone Tennessee keeps in regular contact with. Offensive line coach Don Mahoney has already started the relationship building process in hopes of getting Jenkins on campus.

OTHERS INVOLVED: Penn. State, Pittsburgh, Michigan, Ohio State, Notre Dame

"My last offer was from Ole Miss," said the 6-foot-8, 296-pound Jenkins. "I just watched them play last weekend."

Jenkins is also keeping an eye on one SEC team in particular.

"I talked to Tennessee a few times," he said. "I saw some of their game against Georgia last weekend."

Jenkins has visited the home town Pittsburgh Panthers and has another visit planned for this weekend.

"I went to the Pittsburgh game against Florida State," Jenkins said. "I'm going to the Penn State game this weekend. They're one of my top schools right now. I don't think I have any other visits planned right now."

Going to OSU this weekend according to ESPN.

2015 OL Sterling Jenkins (Pittsburgh/Baldwin): Jenkins is an outstanding offensive line prospect who is being targeted by most of the Big Ten schools. The No. 71 prospect in the ESPN Junior 300, Jenkins has been making his rounds on a few visits during the season. At 6-foot-8, 290 pounds, Jenkins is exactly what teams want as a tackle prospect.

Back on 12/12 in a Rivals article...

"My top six is Ohio State, Michigan, Pittsburgh, Tennessee, Ole Miss and Penn State," Jenkins said. "If any school comes in and really interests me I'll add them to my list."

"I'm not really thinking about an early decision," Jenkins said. "With these six being so broad, I don't think I can narrow it down right now. I think I'll just have to continue growing those relationships with those coaches and make my decision in about a year or so."

“I’ve been talking to (Vols offensive line) coach (Don) Mahoney a little bit,” Jenkins said, adding that he has heard from Mahoney “about every week” since he received a scholarship offer from Tennessee more than six months ago. “Really, it’s just more, like, a building relationship type thing, and he’s telling me more about Tennessee and stuff.”

“I know they have a pretty sound O-line, and I know that Coach Mahoney, he’s from around Pittsburgh, so he’s familiar with the area,” Jenkins said. “Him just being real honest and trying to build a relationship with me is pretty cool. Relationships are important to me."

“He seems like a teacher — not a guy that will yell at you and stuff on the field, but, like, a teacher, someone who will help you progress and learn and will just really honor my decision, even if I choose not to go there.”

“That’s probably what I’ll do — just wait ‘til signing day (next year),” Jenkins said. “Not ‘til signing day, but just somewhere close to that, because I don’t think I’m ready to make a decision at all yet.”

Because he's from PA, Callahan asked him about his instate school, Penn St. Jenkins more or less said he would have to take a "wait and see" approach with them.

Jacques Mcclendon, Jarrod Shaw, Josh McNeil, and Anthony Parker are not small by any means
