York (Pa.) William Penn offensive lineman Greg Gaskins was a guy that looked good earlier this spring at the Rivals.com Junior Day in New Jersey. He repeated the looking good part again this past weekend at the State College NIKE Training Camp. His day had several college coaches scribbling his name down in their notebooks, including several BCS powers.

"I felt like I had a good day, but there is always room for improvement," Gaskins, who measured in at 6-foot-2 ½ and 280 pounds, said.
"I would say I did best in the shuttle. I did pretty well in the individual line drills. I learned more how to improve my set. I was always taught to drop back, but here I learned if they're head up on you, just take one step back and don't go to them."
Gaskins felt strong enough about his workout that he thinks several schools might take a longer look at him now, even though he's still searching for his first offer.
"Being out here with the coaches gave me a chance to show what I can do," Gaskins said. "They can see me work out and then now they can go watch me on film and see what I have to bring to the table."
Gaskins said the teams recruiting him the hardest at this point are West Virginia, Georgia Tech, Akron, Bowling Green and N.C. State.
"This camp really made me excited about what's going to happen," Gaskins said. "That just makes me want to keep working hard."
