Penn State football has already added the majority of its Class of 2024 as the program shifts into the heart of its summer workouts. But, in the coming days, the Nittany Lions are expecting to add a significant remaining piece of its personnel puzzle. <\/p>\n
Blue White Illustrated\u2019s Sean Fitz has learned that Philadelphia (Pa.) Imhotep wide receiver Tyseer Denmark<\/a><\/strong> is set to arrive to Penn State following his high school graduation on Friday. Denmark confirmed with BWI\u2019s Ryan Snyder that he is expecting to arrive to the Nittany Lions\u2019 program this weekend.<\/p>\n The news comes on the heels of Denmark\u2019s MVP performance<\/a><\/strong> for Pennsylvania in the Big 33 Classic in Hershey on May 27. <\/p>\n In the game, Denmark excelled in all phases of the offense and special teams, carrying the ball, catching passes, and even throwing the ball. He caught the game\u2019s first touchdown over future Maryland Terrapins cornerback\u00a0Kevyn Humes<\/a><\/strong> and added to it with another two scores. His final stat tally finished with four catches for 95 yards. <\/p>\n Last season, transfer rules prevented Denmark from participating in the playoffs, leaving him with 28 catches for 330 yards and four touchdowns on the season. And, he did so alongside teammate Kenny Woseley,<\/a><\/strong> who is also set to enroll soon. <\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve been talking a lot,\u201d Denmark said before the game. \u201cWe\u2019ve been going over formations and doing different Zoom meetings to touch on the different things I need to be ready. I\u2019m just getting ready for all of that stuff and they\u2019ve also been helping me prepare my mind for what\u2019s next.\u201d<\/p>\n That preparation could be extremely important for Penn State ahead of the 2024 season. Joining a room of receivers<\/a><\/strong> beleaguered by criticism from the last campaign, Denmark\u2019s arrival marks the beginning of an opportunity in which the program continues to search out contributions from the position.<\/p>\n Meeting with Blue White Illustrated this week, head coach James Franklin<\/a><\/strong> issued both confidence and a challenge to the receivers as they work through the summer.<\/p>\n \u201cI think talent-wise, I\u2019ve never questioned the talent that we have in that room. But, there needs to be a significant step this year, that not only are they a big time unit, but one of the better units in our conference,\u201d said Franklin. \u201cThat\u2019s what our whole offseason is about, that\u2019s what training camp is going to be about. That\u2019s early in the season, what that\u2019s going to be about. <\/p>\n \u201cBecause, I think with success, that this unit can take off. Because talent\u2019s not our issue. Measurables; speed, strength, those types of things, our room probably matches up with the best receiver rooms in the country. But, we got to produce and we got to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n Denmark was the No. 555-ranked player in the\u00a0On3 Industry Rankings<\/a><\/strong> as a three-star prospect. He\u2019s the 11th-ranked player in Pennsylvania for the Class of 2024.<\/p>\n Talk about it with our premium subscribers in the Lions Den, here!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n The post Penn State football ready to welcome much-anticipated addition<\/a> appeared first on On3<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Penn State football has already added the majority of its Class of 2024 as the…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-55086","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55086","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55086"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55086\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":55117,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55086\/revisions\/55117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55086"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55086"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/demo.wztzfm.com\/wp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55086"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Tyseer Denmark makes final splash before Penn State arrival<\/h2>\n
