Which recruits made it to Penn State this weekend?
Saturday was another busy one for Penn State head coach James Franklin and his staff. In addition to conducting their sixth spring practice of the year, PSU also hosted its annual Chalk Talk event Saturday evening. But that wasn’t even everything, as the staff also hosted another deep list of recruits and their parents to campus.
Compared to our expected attendee list Saturday morning, there weren’t many additions or subtraction to the list. The only player on the original list who didn’t show was 2025 defensive end and Philadelphia native Sharlandiin Strange.
Class of 2024 tight end and Massachusetts native Luke Reynolds was the most notable addition to the list. Reynolds ended up committing to Penn State Saturday. Two other adds to the list were 2024 WR Peter Gonzalez and 2025 CB Naiim Parrish. Gonzalez is a high school teammate with Penn State linebacker commit Anthony Speca, who was also in attendance. Parrish holds five early scholarship offers, one of which came from Penn State in December.
