4-star safety Vaboue Toure commits to Penn State

Irvington (N.J.) four-star safety Vaboue Toure has announced his commitment to the Penn State Nittany Lions.

The 6-foot-0.5, 188-pounder is the No. 255 overall prospect and No. 22 safety in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 3 player in New Jersey.

On3 rates Toure higher than other recruiting services, according to the Industry Comparison. Per the 2024 On300, he is the No. 133 overall prospect, No. 9 safety in the country and No. 4 player in New Jersey.

Penn State extended an offer to Toure last March and he’s taken four visits in total to Happy Valley. He’s visited twice this year including an official visit on June 9.

“What I enjoyed most about the visit was getting to sit down and chop up my film and some game film with Coach Poindexter,” Toure said following his January visit. “One thing that stood out to me was the new weight room, simply because I had never seen it before. It amazed me.”

Vaboue Toure currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $63K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
