2027 Recruiting Thread

[LMTLION]

Good video from LT. He states Paiva won one of the mvps at an Under Armor camp. Again, not the flashiest of recruits as he will have one purpose at PSU to occupy blockers on run plays.

They still need DE/Edge players in this recruiting cycle.

PSU should be putting full court press on Seasay (DE) from PA. PSU has the DE chops. I hope he isn't gonna follow those unscrupulous recruiters from LSU.

Carter Blattner is a DE. They need 1 or 2 more.

It Sesay goes elsewhere, James Pace from DeMatha MD looks like a playmaker as well.

I agree. The lack of recruits from PA is concerning.

You think this staff is going to pay sesay? Yeah and James Franklin might develop a top tier WR and QB

 

[rigi19041]

I am willing to bet he won’t be a 1-18 laughingstock against teams with a pulse.

Will he beat northern Iowa, Cincinnati and wvu?

Was going to be tough to get those guys that were committed to Franklin, Hopefully Campbell can get Taylor.

Maybe, but none of those kids are following Franklin to VT. They were/are all still in play, but appear to be heading elsewhere.

What amazes me is that it appears as if some expected Campbell to come in and immediately have a 1991 type of recruting class, which never was going to happen. What has happened is that it appears as if he is putting together a very solid and good class and, if he has a good 2026 season, his succeeding classes will have more players with more stars, which will make people happy who think that only high school kids who have a lot of stars next to their names automatically means that they'll be college All Americas.

By the way, I still am amazed that a lot of people fall for this star garbage, which anybody who knows anything about recruiting knows that a lot of that is contrived based on many factors, such as whether a particular school shows interest in a kid or whether a kid was just a man among boys in high school. How many four and five star players have washed out at PSU or any other school simply because they never were that good to begin with, and how many lightly regarded kids, like Paul Posluszny, became All-Americas and major award winners?

Also, to the people who constantly criticize Campbell for no apparent reason, be happy becasuse in another few years a significant portion of the 2027 class won't even be at PSU anymore, just like at every other school.

IMO this class will need a year or two to mature. But a couple in this class will have to mature early. Also, next year the portal may play a bigger part. I do like his approach and what he has done so far. Early enrollment for some of these guys will be key.
