Penn State has 13 commits, what’s next?
With 13 players committed to the Class of 2024, the Penn State staff is likely halfway done with this cycle. While this will be one of the bigger recruiting classes, according to Blue White Illustrated’s experts, this is an excellent time to reset and review the work so far.
T-Frank and Fitz will break down the strengths and weaknesses of the group, including players and positions that don’t have any commitments so far.

Next, the duo will single out two players from the group to discuss in detail. Last week, T-Frank wrote about the talent and potential of the team’s tackle prospects, Sexton and Eagan Boyer. T-Frank thinks they represent a particular moment in Penn State recruiting that hasn’t been accomplished very often under head coach James Franklin. Next, he and Fitz discuss the upside and possible issues each player might face.
Next, you’ll get a special preview of T-Frank’s conversation with Sexton, who spoke with BWI’s film analyst this past weekend. You can see the full interview later Monday on Blue White Illustrated. If you haven’t yet, subscribe to premium content so you have access to the interview.
