Recruiting Pod: National Signing Day Discussion, Cooper Cousins Commits
0Penn State finished up its January contact period on a high note Saturday, adding a commitment from Pennsylvania four-star offensive lineman Cooper Cousins.
It was one of a variety of topics that have grabbed headlines in recent days, giving Blue White Illustrated's Greg Pickel and Ryan Snyder plenty to discuss on our latest recruiting podcast.
Of course, National Signing Day is set for tomorrow, Feb. 2, but with only one committed player left to sign for Penn State, junior college safety Tyrece Mills from Lackawanna College, we're not expecting a ton of drama.
Or are we?
Penn State is still in the mix with one uncommitted 2022 offensive lineman in Washington native Vega Ioane. The three-star flew out to State College this past weekend for an official visit, and all signs point to him deciding between the Nittany Lions and Washington Huskies tomorrow. Ioane has already announced publicly that he'll decide at 11:45 a.m. ET.
Of course, the early signing period and its impact on National Signing Day is also a popular topic now, especially after a hectic coaching carousel and the implementation of the transfer portal. Ryan and Greg discuss their thoughts on that, and whether the early signing period will still be around in years to come.
The guys finish off today's podcast with some discussion surrounding the transfer portal. This past week, Penn State offered former North Texas players Gabriel and Grayson Murphy. Both are expected to be important to the Nittany Lions, as they remain in search for linebackers and defensive ends.
