This is obviously one of the biggest offensive line commitments for Boston College in some time.
Ben Petrula has been singled out for many months as one of the Eagles' top offensive line targets. In recent years BC has relied heavily on their own evaluation of offensive linemen, trusting that Steve Addazio and Justin Frye would be more than capable of finding players to fit their scheme and mold. Petrula is well-regarded across the board by analysts and has a nice offer sheet.
It also helps continue the pipeline to St. Peter's Prep.
Reported a little while back that Petrula had showed up at BC wearing an Eagles' cap when he was with his father. That was probably a pretty good indication that BC was in great shape.
Very, very big commitment and I'll say it again -- player for player they really love this class that's coming together.
