... that American football tight end Andrew Szczerba, who attended Penn State, was recruited by eventual Penn State head coach Bill O'Brien while he was still at Duke?

Open to any alternate hooks; possibly one about his uncle if this one is deemed unsatisfactory. Thanks! Go Phightins! 21:38, 23 April 2013 (UTC)

Date, length and references all check. No signs of obvious bias. The fact implied in the hook is interesting, though the wording of the hook isn't sitting well with me for some reason. I'm trying to come up with alternate wording. How about

ALT1 ... that whilst he was working at Duke University, eventual Penn State American football head coach Bill O'Brien tried to recruit Andrew Szczerba, who attended Penn State?

I'm open to alternate hooks as well, that's the best I can do right now and I won't be offended if anyone doesn't like it. Freikorp (talk) 03:31, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

Sounds good for the alternate hook. I knew what I was trying to say, but I just couldn't phrase it to save my life. Thanks. Go Phightins! 19:49, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
