Description: Penn State Nittany Lions land a game-changing addition with Jeremiah Cooper, the No. 11 overall transfer portal prospect and former Iowa State defensive back. Is this the move that solidifies Penn State’s secondary among the elite in the Big Ten? Zach Seyko breaks down Cooper’s instant impact potential, positional versatility at safety and cornerback, and how his arrival offsets the departure of Dejuan Lane. Discussion highlights include an evolving running back room with Cam Wallace’s return and Tikey Hayes’ transfer, linebacker depth, and insight into Deshaun Burnett’s role as a developing edge rusher. Zach Seyko also tackles the broader transfer portal strategy, questions about depth and competition, and what Matt Campbell and D'Anton Lynn’s defensive plans mean for Penn State’s future. Can the Nittany Lions leverage these acquisitions to fuel a dominant new era? All eyes are on Beaver Stadium heading into 2026.Become an every-dayer!
