Penn State offensive line coach Phil Trautwein is leaving no stone unturned in the search for a complete offensive line class in 2024. Despite having a nearly complete class and several high-quality offensive linemen taking official visits, Trautwein sent out more offers in recent months. One of those was to Florida offensive line prospect Deryc Plazz. Plazz gained attention this spring with offers from Florida State and Virginia Tech, among others. He earned his Penn State offer on April 7. Plazz will take his first official visit of the summer, starting in Happy Valley this weekend. So before he travels north to Penn State, let’s peek at his highlight film and see what we can discern.
