Penn State recruiting kicks off June with their biggest camp weekend of the summer. The Whiteout Camp takes place Saturday, and recruiting insider Ryan Snyder joins the BWI Daily Edition to tell you all about it. He and host Thomas Frank Carr go through the biggest names in attendance on Saturday and preview other important weekends this month. They also look at critical official visits, including this weekend’s massively important Jason Moore visit. 

Penn State Whiteout camp preview

Snyder starts the show for those who don’t follow recruiting closely by explaining what the Whiteout camp is, why teams do camps, and where they got their start. Then he lists off the critical players for the Class of 2023 that will attend on Saturday. Check out his article here for the complete list, including key names from 2024 and beyond. 

Next, he and T-Frank discuss the satellite camp the Penn State staff attended on Thursday. The BWI Daily Edition was taped a day in advance so be sure to check the site for a recap of the events from Thursday. Snyder explains to T-Frank what satellite camps are and why teams attend them before previewing the camp in Detroit that head coach James Franklin spoke at yesterday.

Jason Moore official visit

Next, T-Frank and Snyder discuss four-star defensive tackle Jason Moore’s official visit, taking place this weekend. Snyder has called Moore one of the most important players in the Class of 2023 for Franklin. So, T-Frank asks him why. Why is Moore so crucial in a year with such depth at the defensive tackle position? Snyder explains that it’s not just his position or talent that matters but something else. 

After further discussion about Moore and the defensive line group in 2023, T-Frank brings up a final topic that might be on the minds of Penn State football fans. The Class of 2023 started out with fanfare and promise. But after a few losses in the last month, including in-state players committing to other schools, should Penn State be worried about this class? 

T-Frank and Snyder discuss this topic from a big-picture perspective, where BWI’s insider doesn’t see a huge reason to worry. Next, they discuss it individually, where Snyder feels that NIL opportunities will cause Penn State to miss players they would typically get. That, along with the depth at defensive tackle, linebacker, and offensive line, should give Penn State fans hope. 

Either way, June and July will be a wild ride.
