Penn State just lost another elite recruit. Five-star OT Immanuel Iheanacho, a Maryland native and major target for the Nittany Lions, committed to Oregon — and it reflects a concerning pattern. On this July 4th edition of Locked On Nittany Lions, Zach Seyko breaks down:
- Why Penn State keeps missing in high-profile recruiting battles
- The true impact of NIL — and how PSU’s structure may be holding them back
- Why fans shouldn’t panic — Penn State’s quiet wins might surprise you
Zach pulls back the curtain on recruiting politics, donor behavior, and how Penn State is building a sustainable (if unflashy) future. Are the Lions stuck in neutral, or on the verge of flipping the script?
