TE favors PSU, Miami

Brick (N.J.) Brick Memorial tight end Garrett Graham has improved more than almost anyone else in the state of New Jersey this off season. After hoping for a few early offers, now the 6-foot-4, 220-pounder is aiming high, very high.

"Penn State and Miami are my two favorites," said Graham. "I don't have offers from either yet, but I'm hopeful. I am a big fan of Kellen Winslow and I am bigger than he was in high school. I think I could play like him in college. Penn State is in the Big 10, close enough to home and I like their coaches. They also have great fans and a huge stadium."

Graham also likes Notre Dame, Northwestern and Georgia Tech to round out his top five.

"I have offers from Northwestern and GTech," he said. "I also have offers from NC State, West Virginia, Syracuse and Wisconsin. Notre Dame will hopefully offer soon."

Graham knows what he wants in a school.

"I want a college degree that will open some doors after football and a good location," he said. "I'd also like to be on TV as much as possible. Both PSU and Miami are on national television all the time."

Graham, who caught 38 passes for 847 yards and five touchdowns as a junior playing wideout, will camp at Penn State and Miami in hopes of earning offers.
