Description: The biggest month of Penn State football recruiting is on its way next week. With the start of summer comes the start of official visit season. While it’s not the same bonanza of commitments as it used to be, the team will still try to secure its top targets at key positions over the next few weeks. Today on the BWI Live Recruiting Show, we discuss that, plus the loss of top commit Gabe Jenkins to Colorado, the latest in the 2028 Recruiting rankings, and more.  Join us live at 10 a.m. on YouTube to be part of the action. We’ll be taking your questions and comments live on the show and responding to them on air.
