Westminster rising senior Blake Gillikin decided to make it an extra special Father's Day for his family. The 6-foot-1, 180-pound punter committed to Penn State over Georgia and Northwestern.
Gillikin was offered by UGA on June 11. He made at least one trip to Athens since then. He wasn't able to add to a recruiting board that has seen some regression over the last two weeks. North Carolina RB B.J. Emmons de-committed on June 11 and Archer offensive tackle E.J. Price also decided to reopen his recruiting process last week.

A big plus for Gillikin is his athletic ability. He plays multiple varsity sports. Gilikin has a 4.0 GPA and has only made one B in his life (an 89 for one semester of English). He averaged 39.7 yards on 43 punts, including five punts of 50 yards or mote. He also had 19 punts downed inside of the 20-yard line.
Gillikin is actually a twin.
His brother Tyler is also a long snapper at Westminster.
