Football coach Joe Paterno is expected to travel to Jeannette, Pa., today to visit Terrelle Pryor, rated by many as the nation's No. 1 overall high school recruit, according to a team source.

The 81-year-old icon will be joined by defensive coordinator Tom Bradley, who has recruited Pryor since he was in the ninth grade. A 6-foot-6, 235-pound quarterback, Pryor has pared his choices down to four schools: Ohio State, Michigan, Penn State and Oregon.

Pryor has taken official visits to only Ohio State and Michigan, although he has been to Penn State for a number of unofficial visits.

The recruiting Web sites that track Pryor's every move have predicted that Parade magazine's national player of the year will choose between the Buckeyes and the Wolverines. The Nittany Lions, though, still have their ace in the hole - Paterno.

The coach rarely visits recruits at this stage in his storied career. Whether he is too late remains to be seen.

Pryor, who also stars in basketball, will be in the Philadelphia area on Friday. Jeannette will play Chester in a 7:30 p.m. game at Villanova.

The quarterback will announce his college decision on Wednesday, national signing day.

Kinlaw tapped. Former Penn State running back Rodney Kinlaw will play in Saturday's Texas vs. the Nation Challenge, an all-star game in El Paso, Texas.
