Penn State target Jaylen Harvey narrows his list to three schools
Gaithersburg (Md.) Quince Orchard defensive end Jaylen Harvey is one step closer to making his college decision. The On3 Industry four-star prospect narrowed his focus to three schools on Friday evening. Maryland, Penn State and USC made the cut for the standout pass rusher, who could announce his decision before his senior season starts later this month.
Penn State has been the longtime leader on the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine and he’s been to State College more than any other school. All three programs on his final list got official visits in June. Florida also received an official visit on the weekend of June 9 and Tennessee was also on a top five that he released in June.

“I like Penn State a lot,” Harvey said earlier this year. “My interest is very high in them. My relationship with the coaches, how they make me feel like a top recruit and the way they develop edge rushers have them up there. The way I feel there and how they coach guys like me up makes Penn State a program I would love to be a part of.”
The 6-foot-2, 250-pound Harvey is the No. 348 prospect nationally according to the On3 Industry rankings. He’s the nation’s No. 27 edge prospect and the No. 9 player in Maryland in the Class of 2024.
