Penn State commits stand out in camp
The weekend’s top story is Grunkemeyer, who is quickly becoming a name to know for the summer recruiting of 2024. Just over a month ago, the Ohio native earned a Penn State offer, which he accepted, committing to the program on Saturday. So now he’s off to the Elite 11 finals in California in mid-June.
The group will discuss what they saw of Grunkemeyer and what he did to earn the top billing from the camp. T-Frank followed Penn State’s newest quarterback around the camp and has highlights to share with fans during the show.
