Penn State football enters a pivotal official visit weekend with its 2026 recruiting class hanging in the balance. In this episode, Zach Seyko and Brian Smith preview the most important visitors — including 5-star offensive tackle Immanuel Iheanacho, potential running back target Brian Bonner, and top defensive lineman Luke Wafle.

Zach breaks down why Penn State’s pitch may be stronger than LSU or Oregon’s — despite NIL gaps — and which current commits and under-the-radar players (like Terry Wiggins, Carter Gooden, and Benjamin Eziuka) are rising fast on the Nittany Lions’ big board.

Plus, which position groups still need to be filled to close out a top-10 class?
