Here Are The 5 Highest Rated Recruits Penn State Can Land In 2017

The Penn State Nittany Lions have put together top recruiting classes every year under head coach James Franklin, and he already has PSU firmly in the mix with many of the very best prospects in the 2017. Here are the five highest-rated recruits that are considering Penn State:

5) Lamont Wade, CB
Wade already has offers from virtually every major conference school, but Penn State is right at the forefront to land the 5'10", 185-pounder, along with Ohio State, Michigan and Pitt.

4) D'Andre Swift, RB
Swift is the top-rated all-purpose running back in the 2017 class, and has a boatload of scholarship offers as a result. However, the Philadelphia native is very high on Penn State, and the Nittany Lions are the current favorite to land him.

3) Isaiah Wilson, OT
Michigan might be the early favorite to land the Brooklyn native, but Penn State has been recruiting him hard for the past year. The Wolverines are the favorite, but Rutgers, Alabama and PSU are all in the mix.

2) Donovan Peoples-Jones, WR
Peoples-Jones is the top WR in the class of 2017. He's from Detroit, Michigan, which is why it's not a surprise Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan State, Notre Dame, and Michigan are recruiting him hard. He's likely a long way off from committing to any school. 

1) Joshua Kaindoh, DE
The No. 1 defensive end in the class of 2017 from Bradenton, FL, Penn State's early interest in Kaindoh has clearly paid off as they're the favorite to land him, though he also has interest in Maryland and Ohio State.
