With the way we've struggled the last 2/3 years on the field, we're recruiting pretty well.Thanks for posting.
Pretty sad that with the needs that remain in the 2023 class (OT, OT, OT, DT, Game breaking WR, RB, and LB) that the only non-committed 2023 top recruit coming to the white out is Keys the LB that is still committed to UNC.
That's B.S.With the way we've struggled the last 2/3 years on the field, we're recruiting pretty well.
My comment was a positive comment saying that we've recruited well. I've been going to games since I was 4.That's B.S.
PSU has a game day atmosphere second to none, and has a history, recent and long term, of it's players getting to the NFL in large numbers.
Franklin got off to a great start on the 2023 class COMING OFF TWO PATHETIC SEASONS. But it seems recently can't fill out the class to address the remaining needs of the roster.
If you are really a PSU graduate/fan from just 2011, I've been following PSU football recruiting since way before your were born.
But thanks for your enlightening comment!!!
I know your comment was positive.My comment was a positive comment saying that we've recruited well. I've been going to games since I was 4.
I know your comment was positive.
But the fact that Franklin and his staff can only get one 2023 target, a player still commited elsewhere, to the white out, the best atmosphere in college football, when there are still obvious needs for the 2023 class (OT, RB, LB, DL), is a negative. Not a positive.
Yeah, remember the 2005 game at the Beav against OSU! We must have had at least (40) top 2006 recruits on the sidelines, and got many of our top targets after that game.I know your comment was positive.

Franklin admitted after the UM game that his team's lines need to be bigger and more physical. The first step in that direction might logically be to add a couple bigger, physical players to the 2023 recruiting class......
Clemson was bad last year and Pitt had their once in a generation good year - if you look at their recruiting ranking not impressive- quantity does not always equal qualityJust now watching last years Pitt/Clemson game at Pitt. The announcer said that Pitt has"150 Recruits" at that game. No wonder we stall late in the season in recruiting our top targets. Pitt's OL was manhandling Clemson's DL. Maybe something in their playbook we should adopt since they always appear to have a physical OL every year!
True, but I wish our OL could run block like Pitt. Even though they recruit lower rated players, their OL was really good in run blocking.Clemson was bad last year and Pitt had their once in a generation good year - if you look at their recruiting ranking not impressive- quantity does not always equal quality
Yep the class is almost full. But the total number is dependent on players leaving via the portal.Barring kids flipping their commitment away from us, our class is basically full outside of 3 possible spots, no?
Recruiting is double edged. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Guess other recruits have got better things to do. Perhaps they don't share your enthusiasm for the gimmick game. Or they may be drawn to programs that are actually trending upward. Who knows? Not really concerned, we don't need those recruits anyway, they probably aren't anywhere near "classy" enough to be Penn State material. Hell, they would probably refer to our rivals as UM and OSU instead of the classy names like ScUM and OHowIHate. We don't want that crap, would just drag us down.Thanks for posting.

Fortunately "other recruits" do have great enthusiasm for the white out. Not that this has anything to do with my opinion on it, and your assumptions on my opinion. The PSU sideline will be filled with top targets, but mostly uncommitted 2024 and 2025 class recruits, in addition to a good many of the committed 2023 recruits. Just not many 2023 uncommitted recruits. So many overall that Franklin said he has to limit them due to the sideline space being the limiting factor.Guess other recruits have got better things to do.

oh what a night:Yeah, remember the 2005 game at the Beav against OSU! We must have had at least (40) top 2006 recruits on the sidelines, and got many of our top targets after that game.
I was there for the game. Rained like hell all day long, then turned into a cold mist just before game time. What a night with about 108,500 attending.
