Levi Norwood granted release from Penn State

Class of 2010 commit Levi Norwood was allowed to reneg on his letter of intent to play for the Nittany Lions. Norwood--son of former safeties coach Brian and brother of former receiver Jordan--wanted to be closer to his family, now living in Waco, TX. Brian Norwood accepted a job as Baylor's defensive coordinator last season.

This is no surprise, nor should it be anything beyond a minor disappointment. Norwood had a legitimate reason for his request, and given how much his famiy has contributed to Penn State, granting that request was the appropriate move by Joe Paterno. Good luck, Levi!
