Penn State is off to a blazing start for its 2027 recruiting class — and may have just landed the next Saquon Barkley. Host Zach Seyko and recruiting insider Brian Smith break down the commitment of Kemon Spell, a top-10 overall player and No. 1 running back in the country, plus elite WR Khalil Taylor and offensive lineman Layton Von Brandt. Then, the conversation shifts to breaking national news: Donald Trump’s executive order to stop NIL collectives. Will it work? Could it destabilize or save college football? The guys close by discussing the future of recruiting, NIL strategy, and Penn State’s next move at quarterback.
