North Allegheny coach Art Walker congratulates Khalil Dinkins after his touchdown against Seneca Valley Friday, Sept. 27, 2019, at Nextier Stadium in Jackson.
The college options for North Allegheny’s Khalil Dinkins jumped significantly this month with scholarship offers from Penn State and Michigan.
Overall, he’s added five offers since Feb. 1 with the most recent Saturday from the Nittany Lions. He also added Boston College, Virginia Tech and Tulane in the past two weeks.
The 6-foot-4, 205-pound junior plays wide receiver and linebacker for North Allegheny. He’s the son of former Pitt safety and NFL tight end Darnell Dinkins.
His first Power 5 offer came Jan 23 from Syracuse.
