Victory Bell Rings, a site here on FanSided, reported some more bad news for Penn State football within the last couple of days. As with the Tommy Schutt information, however, this news may be bad for one Big Ten school and good for another. If you were unable to guess that we, Ohio State, are the school benefiting from this, then I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

VBR reported that two of Penn State’s recruits, Armani Reeves and Camren Williams, were disappointed in some of the recent coaching changes. Their main discrepancy was with the termination of Bill Kenney, the offensive line (tackles) and tight ends coach who had been significantly involved with their recruitment. So where does OSU fit into this mix?

Camren Williams, a 4 star linebacker recruit, and Armani Reeves, a 4 star cornerback recruit, were high school teammates and had made plans to play their college ball together. This is not a blood pact by any means, but simply the way that their recruitments had gone, and a factor that both hoped would happen. Camren Williams and his father, a former NFL defensive end, have said that his school options have been narrowed down to OSU and PSU, and he took an official visit to Columbus in December. Camren also confirmed this, and more, in a very good interview with Eleven Warriors’ Alex Gleitman.

With the news of Bill Kenney’s departure, it has been reported that Camren Williams and Armani Reeves have cancelled their scheduled visits to State College. Take that information as you’d like, but an official visit to OSU for Williams to meet with Urban Meyer, Luke Fickell, and Mike Vrabel, and no visit to Penn State sure sounds like a soon-to-be commitment for the scarlet and gray.

The story does not end there, as it was recently learned that Ohio State and Coach Meyer reached out to Armani Reeves to gauge his interest and hopefully make him an offer. Reeves had not previously expressed interest in Ohio State, due in large part to the fact that OSU had not offered him a scholarship yet. He had, however, shown interest in That School Up North, so a decommitment from Penn State could likely mean a battle for Reeves between The Rivals.

OSU certainly has a chance to steal another two recruits from Penn State, bringing the total to, arguably, 4 players (Spence, Schutt, Williams, and Reeves) stolen by the Buckeyes since the turmoil in Happy Valley began.
