ESPN: Like father, like son: LaVar Arrington II to Penn State

[BleedGopher]

Whenever I hear LaVar’s name I think of Dan Nystrom.

Per ESPN:

Outside linebacker LaVar Arrington II, the son of former Penn State All-American and seven-year NFL veteran LaVar Arrington, announced his commitment to the Nittany Lions on Thursday.

Arrington II hails from Covina, California, and is a two-way standout at Charter Oak High School where he totaled 65 tackles and 12 sacks during his junior season last fall. The 6-foot-2, 210-pound defender held offers from the likes of Michigan, Washington and Colorado, and commits to his father's alma mater following spring visits to Penn State, Tennessee and UCLA.

No matter how you phrase it, I don't know why someone would get the impression that Jr. wouldn't be able to get into NDSU.

Pretty obvious that the shot was at the fans of Nebraska and NDSU, not Arrington. Sorry you were offended.
