I see Penn State landing Wilkins and Miller for sure. Ty Howell, a Juco OLman, is visiting the 23rd. It would be nice if he committed for depth for two years, while the young kids develop. They are also in on Seymour, defensive lineman committed to Rutgers. Franklin has been known to get kids to flip late in the recruiting process, so we will see about that. I think, if they want Petrishen, they get him.

I think Penn State will get Wilkins and Miller but I'd be surprised if Petrishen didn't go to Pitt. The secondary is one of the only positions Penn State is loaded with talent and he could easily end up getting buried in the depth chart.

I could see Petrishen playing linebacker down the line. 6'3" frame already, sits at 205 at 18 years old. He could bulk up in a college weight room.

Miller probably goes to Penn State, but we'll see if Narduzzi can make a move. Pitt is currently his number two, and he's close friends with a couple of the Pitt players from Philadelphia. Not to mention, playing time could come earlier at Pitt if you are a defensive recruit. I still think he ends up in Happy Valley.

Is Austrian Robinson pretty much a Maryland lock?

I could see Miller or Petrishen going to Penn State or Pitt. It will be interesting to see how Narduzzi can close on these kids against Franklin and how well he does in a much better WPIAL class in 2016.

Deion Barnes leaving really opened a spot for Miller, but if you look at Miller's frame, it would be wise if he redshirted and worked on the weight room a few years. If Petrishen can play linebacker, he would be a good addition for Penn State. Penn State is loaded in the secondary, WR, RB, and QB going forward. I would like to see DL, OL, and LB for Penn State.

For next year does PSU have any shot at guys like Rashan Gary, Damar Hamlin, and Rahshaun Smith?

Penn State was a the leader for Hamlin as of a few months ago. It remains to be seen if Narduzzi has any effect. His high school is right beside Pitt's campus.

Rashaun Smith has been to Penn State quite a few times. Right now, it's between Clemson and PSU I believe.

Rashan Gary will be a tough pull as every school in the country will be after him

All this said, it's 13 months prior to signing day, and we know these kids can commit to a school one day and change their mind 3 months later.

Hamlin has received more offers since the season ended.

He mas Maryland, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State,Penn State, Pitt, Virginia Tech, and WVU.


I think just like Dravon Henry and Jordan Whitehead, the combination of Ohio State, Penn State, Pitt, and WVU will be the finalists, but again we have yet to see what Narduzzi will do, and don't forget Harbaugh makes things more interesting as well.

I had a feeling he was going to commit to Clemson when Penn State offered another DT this morning.
