Keaton Ellis — a State College graduate and early enrollee cornerback — picked himself up off the Holuba Hall turf and set off a celebration Wednesday night.
John Reid bolted over to and body-bumped Penn State head coach James Franklin. Redshirt senior Garrett Taylor rushed onto the field with a wide smile. Second-team safeties Jonathan Sutherland and John Petrishen ran to greet their play-making teammate. Ellis had intercepted Penn State quarterback Will Levis at the end of Wednesday’s practice, an example of how the former Little Lion has impressed this spring camp.
“I think the two corners, Keaton and Marquis (Wilson), are really doing some good things,” Franklin said of the early enrollees.
