Matt Campbell is TURNING Penn State's Recruiting Momentum Back Around!
Description
Penn State football recruiting is back in focus after Matt Campbell and the Nittany Lions landed linebacker Case Alexander over Oklahoma. Alexander gives Penn State a major defensive win in the 2027 recruiting class and adds another athletic linebacker alongside Blake Betton.
On today’s Locked On crossover, Zach Seyko and Brian Smith break down Case Alexander’s scouting report, Penn State’s linebacker recruiting plan, and what the commitment says about Matt Campbell’s recruiting ability. They also discuss Khalil Taylor, Deshawn Hall, Dhillon McGee, Penn State’s wide receiver recruiting situation, the cornerback board, NIL factors, Auburn, Nebraska, SMU, Texas, and what Penn State still needs to close.
This matters because Penn State’s class has been through turbulence with recent flips and shifting momentum. Alexander helps calm the panic, but the difference between a solid first class and a statement class may come down to whether Penn State can land one of its top wide receiver targets and finish strong at cornerback.
Penn State fans: how confident are you in Matt Campbell’s recruiting finish?
