Episode Details

Penn State recruiting enters the first big official visit weekend of the summer today. Recruiting insider Ryan Snyder joins the BWI Daily Edition to preview the weekend's events, including a seven-on-seven tournament and a prospect camp. He and host Thomas Frank Carr take you through the names and events you need to know.

T-Frank and Snyder start with Penn State's seven-on-seven tournament they're hosting Friday morning at the Penn State football complex. Next, Snyder breaks down the top schools in attendance at the event and the notable players from each institution. After that, T-Frank digs into the nature of tournaments like this and what added benefits they can provide the Penn State coaching staff beyond talent evaluation. Finally, Snyder explains the broader seven-on-seven landscape.

Next, they get into the weekend's biggest event, official visits. Eight uncommitted prospects for the Class of 2023 visit campus this weekend, starting on Friday. Check out the complete list in his notebook from earlier this week.

From that list, T-Frank picks several intriguing players he wants to learn more about from Snyder. For example, where does three-star defensive tackle Tyriq Blanding fit into the defensive tackle board? Will high-priority tackle prospect Evan Link commit after this weekend? And who else is in the picture for Alabama safety Dakaari Nelson?

Lastly, Snyder updates the linebacker situation in the Class of 2023. Penn State's top two targets, Tony Rojas and Ta'Mere Robinson, are seemingly going in different directions. Despite the murky outlook, Snyder tries to shed as much light on the subject as possible.
