Penn State Nittany Lions football issued 30 scholarship offers to prospects around the country in February.

Let’s take a look at each one, starting with the offensive line, defensive line and linebackers.

Jaybron Harvey – 2023 Edge

Harvey, out of Southern High School in North Carolina, is a four-star prospect according to On3 and the On3 Consensus, which rates him as the No. 230 overall prospect in the 2023 cycle. He also holds offers from UNC, Michigan, South Carolina, Virginia Tech and more. At 6-foot-4, 215 pounds, Harvey boasts an ability to explode off the line.

“The best part of my game is getting off the ball,” Harvey told BWI. ” I can read the snap count. I’m explosive off the ball. If you can’t reach me, you can’t block me, but I can be physical and bull rush too.”

Darrion Smith – 2024 DL

Smith, who Penn State views as a defensive tackle, is unrated as of yet. The 6-foot-2, 260-pound prospect out of St. Frances in Baltimore also holds offers from Ole Miss, Maryland, Boston College and Toledo.
