Can't think of a better way to kick off 2023 if it is'23 OG Alex Birchmeier?
'23 OG Alex Birchmeier?
Thought he was a 5* on 247 about a month ago.Good chance he's a 5* by the time he signs his LOI.
247 composite is #42 overall in the nation which would be just outside of 5 star territory. 247 has him at #19 overall which would be a 5 star. Not sure who is ranking him lower but this kid is a legit 5 star caliber talent.Thought he was a 5^ on 247 about a month ago.

Narduzzi isn’t impressed
Remember, this is a verbal commitment, not a signed commitment. Birchmeier is a rising Junior in high school this fall so a lot can transpire over the next year and a half. But this is a big commitment to jump start the 2023 recruiting class. Birchmeier is friends with Mega Barnwell, a former commitment of ours, so hopefully he will be in Barnwell’s ear.Big signing. Well done team.
Great stuff young man welcome aboardGood chance he's a 5* by the time he signs his LOI.

WELCOME TO PENN STATE, ALEX BIRCHMEIER & FAMILY!! #WeAre
It all starts in the trenches...

This is a big verbal, hopefully we can keep him in the fold. He has some big time offers and believe he will be a 5 star recruit when all is said and done. Notre Dame and Alabama will be on him hard to flip. I do believe Trautwein is a big plus for potential recruits.
He took trips to Happy Valley, Notre Dame and Virginia Tech in June.Cautiously optimistic but - and I hate to be that guy - I worry that he hasn’t visited *any* other schools yet. He’s only been to PSU - twice. I assume he’s still gonna take visits and stuff but hope I’m wrong and we get one of those 107% locked in things.
🤞

You'd like to see your first commitments in a class be either big time prospects or really active recruiters to help lead the class and build momentum. I don't know his relationship with other top prospects but he certainty fits the bill as an elite recruit! Welcome!
I probably could have provided the link that mentions those visitsThanks! Was just going by the 247 recruiting timeline for him and do not see those visits listed.

Hopefully the PSU OL excels this season and his commitment remains solid. There will certainly be plenty of room for him since the 2021 class was so slim on OL prospects. Perhaps that was a deciding factor for him?Remember, this is a verbal commitment, not a signed commitment.

you ever notice when penn state recruits pick another school they always jump up a star and when recruits pick penn state they always drop a star!!lolNah!
Only if he was headed to Notre Dame would he become a 5-star sir!
You know that.
^^ That would be one heck of an OL haul.Yup, the leader of the pack.....

“I took visits to Notre Dame and [Virginia] Tech, too, but Penn State blew them out of the water.^^ That would be one heck of an OL haul.
“[The visit] was probably the main reason why I committed now,” he said. “I took visits to Notre Dame and [Virginia] Tech, too, but Penn State blew them out of the water. From the facilities to how I was treated there, and then the campus, it was all just amazing. That was a big part of all this.”
