Joseph brings Penn State a win at a key position
Joseph and Maryland native Brandon Finney are widely considered Penn State’s top two prospects at the cornerback spot in the 2025 class. How important was it for the Lions to secure Joseph? The four-start, top-200 New Jersey prospect gives the Nittany Lions the program’s third cornerback in the class, joining Daryus Dixon from Mater Dei and Xxavier Thomas from Pittsburgh Central Catholic in the class.
We discuss Joseph’s skills, why Penn State likes him, and why he chose the Nittany Lions over Notre Dame, South Carolina, and Standford. Fitz will discuss the team’s journey to this point and then we’ll look ahead to how he fits into the team’s defense under Tom Allen.
