Recruiting’s stretch run

Penn State has 16 players committed to the 2018 recruiting class, which can beginning signing letters of intent Wednesday. The Lions could add 4-6 more players before the class is finalized in February.

Franklin will host his annual recruiting “war room” Wednesday morning.

“The picture will get a little bit clearer for us,” Franklin said. “We don't have a whole lot of spots left.”

“We were in Philly, so I had to check myself, make sure I wasn’t cheering for Saquon and end up getting punched.”
