Cincinnati, Ohio four-star Class of 2018 defensive tackle Aeneas Hawkins decided to push back his college commitment date from this spring to a yet-to-be determined time back in early April, and while he's still not all that close to making a decision, he has zeroed in on his top programs.
Penn State is one of them, as the Lions made the cut for the 6-foot-3, 265-pound defensive tackle along with Ohio State, USC, Cincinnati, Kentucky, Alabama, and Pittsburgh. The new top-seven was picked from over 30 offers, and Hawkins said he will make his college choice from that group this summer.
