1. After all is said and done with visits, Nicholas Singleton will end up at Penn State.
Gorney’s take: FACT. Counting out Wisconsin, Alabama, Notre Dame and Ohio State is hard, and by no means am I doing that since all of those programs have the firepower to land Nicholas Singleton, but I still think Penn State is the team to beat. When he takes his official visit to Happy Valley in June it will only reinforce how he’s leaning right now.
Snyder’s take: FACT. If you would've asked me this a few months ago, I probably would've said fiction, but since the start of spring, and especially in recent weeks, it feels like Penn State has put themselves in the best position. Now, I'll also clarify that if you think I'm ruling out Ohio State and Notre Dame, that's not the case at all. Add in the fact that he swapped out his Northwestern visit for Alabama and things get all the more interesting. However, despite all of that, there seems to be a quiet confidence among the people I speak with close to the Nittany Lions. Singleton himself even admitted last week that it's "definitely fair to say [Penn State is] trending in the right direction." Visits will be important - that's the case for just about every 2022 prospect in the country this year - but his bond with James Franklin, plus the school's proximity to home should keep Nick Singleton in Pennsylvania when it's all said and done.
