Penn State Football picks up former Virginia commit Jimmy Christ

Earlier this week, Penn State football head coach James Franklin teased a new commitment to Happy Valley. As he joined his weekly radio show, Franklin mentioned that there was a new commitment, but per NCAA rules, the head coach wasn’t allowed to say who.

Instead, the player had to make the announcement on his own. Now, we’re not one-hundred percent sure this is that guy — but the timing seems to be close enough to assume it is. So with that, Penn State does, in fact, add another commitment on Friday night.

It was quite an eventful Friday night for Sterling, Virginia native, Jimmy Christ.
