2022 Recruiting Class Thread
- Thread starter bmw199
- Start date
PSU obviously full at the RB position...but it seems that the interest in PSU as a "Top 4" is nevertheless legitimate. Similar to a previous RB recruit, could have been a "Top 3", so perhaps the inclusion of PSU in a "Top 4" is out of respect and certainly burns no bridges.
Penn State's recruiting coordinators discuss 2022 class, busy summer, more
BWI's Ryan Snyder caught up with Terry Smith and Taylor Stubblefield during media day to talk recruiting.
In case of de-commitment, break the glass and call these guys?
To answer your question, I don't think anyone outside of the Penn State football program knows the status of Tyreese Fearbry right now. Fearbry committed to Penn State in early July, and then visited Pitt a few times while he was a Penn State verbal commitment. Fearbry decommitted from Penn State on Thursday, July 29th and then he was on Penn State's campus for the Lasch Bash that Saturday, July 31st. Some speculation that some locals in Pittsburgh made his life difficult after he committed to Penn State, but then others have said that Fearbry's family wants him to leave Pittsburgh. Since it was well known that he was visiting Pitt while being a Penn State commit, my gut feeling is that Franklin told him to decommit until he made up his mind. That could explain his decommitment tweet of “…until further notice”.
I'd add that PSU would certainly still take his commitment. Dohn said on the last podcast that he expect his recruitment to do down to the wire and general vibe is whoever talks to him last may get his commitment. If he had to pick right now he'd say he ends up at Pitt but it sounds like no one will no for sure where he winds up until signing day.
Both are great prospects.

When I look at the roster together with the current commitments it seems to me that another LB would be a higher priority than another DE.
The current team is an injury away from being short of non-freshman bodies at LB, even though there could be only 2 LB's on the field for a good number of plays this Fall......
It's funny that you ask that, because with 24 current commitments and discussions of total potential commitments being in the 25-27 range, there isn't going to be much recruiting news over the next 4 months unless things go south. As mentioned before, we will see our current 247 #1, Rivals #2, rankings go down as other teams fill up their classes. Who else in the 2022 class is the staff pressing hard now? Fearbry, Wesolak, Clemmons, Roye, Wagner, who else, assuming the current class of commits stays together.
Its gonna be hard to keep this thread on the first page given the fact that our 22 class is basically full with maybe 1 or 2 exceptions. I'm okay with that. I prefer it this way.
New Rivals top 250 drops tomorrow. Bets on the over/under of Allar's ranking? Will he make the top 250?
Yes. Guessing between 30s (On3 has him at #36 I think) and 120s (no worse rating than #7 QB coming out of E11, depends how they have the others ranked).
I think he'll sneak into the Top 100 with a 4* rating. He's been underrated for so long that a big correction is in order.
Saunders at the #22 WR is an insult. If someone dominates the 5 star challenge like he has, an upgrade should certainly be in the works!
Agreed, it's asinine to believe there are 20 guys better than him based on what we've seen this summer. Maybe he's not a five-star but no way can you find 20 guys who had better Summers and film than he has.
my prediction Allar makes 250...Rivals drops at least 3 PSU recruits out of their previous highly ranked positions. Been watching MF do this for years.
Don't underestimate the national Rivals guys' resolve. They dug in pre-Elite 11 saying they saw nothing this summer to bump up Allar's rating. They'll have a hard time saying they were wrong.
I mean, at least Allar isn't criminally underranked anymore. But having Allar as the #16 QB in the country after he was comfortably in the top 11 at the Elite 11 feels a lot like Rivals bitterly not wanting to let go of their insane Hackenberg comparison instead of actually evaluating the kid fairly.
Abdul Carter jumped into the rankings as well.
Saunders and Flowers got nice bumps. (78 and 40 I think)
my guesses:
3 ships
Clemons or Greene (Clemons)
Wagner or Roye ( Wagner)
Wesolak or Fearbry (Wesolak)
3 ships
Clemons or Greene (Clemons)
Wagner or Roye ( Wagner)
Wesolak or Fearbry (Wesolak)
you think we are getting all three of those? Heck, at this point I'd be happy with 1 of the 6.
I think it is more likely that we whiff on both WRs and get one of two of each of the other pairs. If we can get a WR, I'd love to see it be a burner like Greene. Can never have enough speed.
Beg to differ...there is some real in state talent in western PA for 2023. Penn State doesn't need any of them to think Pitt is an option.
