Tip of the cap to MV for the name and news.

From Bill Kurelic at ESPN:

"Linebacker Frank Clark (Cleveland, Ohio/Glenville) made an official visit to North Carolina the weekend of Dec. 10. Just before Christmas he had visits scheduled to Michigan Jan. 7, Akron Jan. 14 and Penn State Jan. 28.

However, that schedule has changed quite a bit.

After the firing of Rich Rodriguez, Clark's visit to Michigan was called off and he also has taken Akron and Penn State off his list.

"I leave [Friday] for Michigan State," Clark said. "Then when coach [Brady] Hoke was hired we set up a visit to Michigan Jan. 21. My other visit is Minnesota Jan. 28.

"[Glenville] coach [Ted] Ginn set up my visit to Michigan. An assistant from Minnesota came to my house and we set that visit up."

Clark said all four schools have offered him a scholarship and he does not have a favorite.

"Most likely all take those last three visits before I decide [on a college]," Clark said.

The 6-3, 210-pounder played outside linebacker and tight end during his senior season. He made 70 tackles, including 19 sacks while catching 12 passes with three touchdowns. Clark is being recruited as a linebacker or defensive end for the most part, though strong safety has also been mentioned."

The article is from this last Friday (1/14), so references to the MSU visit are from this last weekend.

Rivals profile: http://rivals.yahoo.com/minnesota/football/recruiting/player-Frank-Clark-115403

Holds offers from Cal, Michigan, MSU, UNC, and apparently us (though Rivals doesn't show that).

Getting either of Clark or Arrington would be great. Getting both would be HUGE.
 

Big time offers to this kid, and we're getting a late visit. Would love to see him in Maroon and Gold.
 

If he holds his visit we will get last impression on him. I like that. Visits that are being scheduled are really starting to show how much work Kill's staff has been doing the last few weeks.
 

Wow Kill is really putting in work identifying nice recruiting targets and getting them in for visits this late in the game. Color me impressed. Now the trick is getting them to commit..
 

Clark is a monster recruit for the Gopher's and Cleveland (Glenville) is a school that is a must have pipeline to succeed in the BIG 10. Sure both Michigan and Ohio State live in Glenville, but any time you can land one of their studs is a major plus presently and into the future.
 



A random question, but what is the "Glenville Academic Campus." Is Glenville one of those public schools that puts the brightest in there own little area, because I have seen other Glenville prospects just listed as Glenville High.
