Landin is a lock unless someone gives him the world!

He needs a whole staff of Bonnie's for that offense. They are all thinking too much and seeing ghosts.
Are we sure Coach Franklin doesn't have a crazier twin brother that they keep locked away somewhere?

Forgive me if already posted, but has Landon Sidun given any timeframe as to when he might announce his commitment? Thanks!
He has said that he was going to take a visit to all his favorites which would mean not for a little while yet.. That said things like this can change after a visit so you never know..
I am going to guess today…
I am also, occasionally, a smart a$$…
I'm thinking our next commit in the class of 2027 is Burnett. He is a high school teammate with Blaze and currently ranked #3 at 126. His dad Scott coaches Blaze and Burnett. His dad wrestled 141 and 149 for Nebraska. It seems like he'd slot in the 133 - 149 range. His final 3 includes Penn State, Ohio State, and Nebraska.

I think Burnett makes a lot of sense, he would have a RS and ORS to use and let the Ono/Blaze/Davis weight range guys clear out, but with 149 not having an obvious heir after SVN it could work out even without any shirts
Hopefully being a legacy doesn't have much pull.
He does seem to be the next most likely. Being actually next ... somebody else could pull the trigger first. Burnett has not yet taken an official to PSU. He visited anOSU in Sept and Nebraska last weekend. Saving the best for last apparently.
Burnett will be a great pick up. Let’s go Cael and staff. As we say full court press on Burnett now. Let’s get him to visit PSU any time now. Hopefully Blaze is trying to recruit him as well.
Willie said on Baschamania he feels Nebraska is a distant 3rd.
'27 Dean Anderson has UNI, NCST and ASU as his top 3 teams, he previously had PSU on his list. Just took 4th in a 138lb S32 bracket with 2 PSU commits ('26 Herring and '27 Mangano)
James Whitbred from State College HS has committed, and from my understanding, a recent decommit from another school was on a visit to PSU recently and really enjoyed his time.

By any chance is that recent decommit Elijah Brown?
Good catch on this, thanks. Missed it on my notifications this morning.
Penn State wrestling lands Class of 2027 recruit James Whitbred
Penn State wrestling is adding to its Class of 2027. The Lions landed State College Area High School junior James Whitbred this week.
Whitbred was 18-6, S6 this past year. He beat 3 state placers including a fall over S2 Evan Petrovich (who won their rematch at states).Good catch on this, thanks. Missed it on my notifications this morning.

His losses were all to state placers. Onlyv2x S1 Maddox Shaw and U16 folkstyle national champ Tyler Traves (VA, Cornell commit) beat him by more than a takedown.
He'll be in the mix for the state title this year, especially since the only other possible roadblock, 145 S3 Michael Turi, transferred to Wyoming Seminary.
He also placed 2nd and 5th in 16u Greco and Freestyle respectively at 2024 Fargo.
Haven't been following the recruiting that closely, so I would very much appreciate the all-knowing board's take on our chances with Grey Burnett. I know we are in his top three, any thoughts on the odds of him joining his buddy Marcus Blaze with the good guys?
Thanks in advance!
