Penn State Football wraps up the majority of its recruiting for 2026 this weekend with the last major string of commitment announcments from top prospects. Today on the BWI Live Recruiting Show, we'll preview the biggest names that will decide their college fate during the holiday weekend, plus recap June. How badly did Penn State get beaten for its top targets compared to other years? Reporter Ryan Snyder will do his best to illustrate how much NIL has eroded the top of the Penn State recruiting pile compared to previous years.

The Good news: Penn State's top recruit at Rivals Five-Star Challenge
Penn State offensive lineman Kevin Brown once again shone on the recruiting stage. Last week, Brown was at the Rivals Five-Star Challenge and earned accolades for his performance. Snyder will recap Brown's accomplishments among his peers and discuss what that means for his outlook and future in Happy Valley.
We'll also recap the team's three-man recruiting weekend to end June with Jackson Ford, Jack Fuchs, and kicker Adam McCann-Gibbs on today's show. What has Snyder learned about Ford? He spoke to the defensive end's head coach to learn more about the latest Nittany Lion.
The final wave of commitments coming up this weekend
Penn State still has several top targets on the board who will make their college destinations known this weekend. This will likely be the last big recruiting weekend of the calendar now that the process has moved earlier into May and June. We'll preview the decisions coming from players like Tyson Harley, Marlen Bright, and cornerback Dorian Barney.
The Bad: Penn State June Recap stings
We've chronicled how many prospects Penn State missed on this recruiting cycle over the last two and a half weeks. From Grayson McKeogh to Luke Wafle, most of the team's top targets left after official visits went to different schools.
While it's undoubtedly a loss, how much of a loss is still a fair debate. Today, we'll try to better understand the new gap between what Penn State previously achieved before NIL and now. The team didn't routinely land elite prospects at the most valuable positions, but there's also a clear erosion of their recruiting. Snyder will attempt to pick through the results to give fans a better understanding.
