Penn State's top target in the 2018 recruiting class, quarterback Phil Jurkovec (Gibsonia, PA), told 247sports that he will attend Penn State's spring game next Saturday.
Jurkovec also attended last year's spring game in Happy Valley, but is using this trip as an opportunity to meet with and talk to new offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead in person.
Head coach James Franklin views Jurkovec, who is the top-rated dual-threat quarterback and No. 9 overall prospect in the 2018 class, as the program's quarterback of the future. He would be expected to compete for the starting job as soon as he steps on campus.
However, Penn State is far from the only school going hard after Jurkovec. He is also showing heavy interest in Notre Dame, along with Pitt and Ohio State.
Jurkovec passed for 2,560 yards and 20 touchdowns and just four interceptions as a sophomore, while adding another 1,250 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground.
