On Tuesday afternoon, 3-star kicker Alex Barbir flipped his commitment from Rutgers to Penn State. With this, Penn State will still add a kicker to their 2016 recruiting class. While the status of kicker commit Quinn Nordin is uncertain right now, the fact remains that, still committed to Penn State or not, he is unlikely to sign a letter of intent with the Nittany Lions.
Barbir attends South Forsyth High School in Cummings, Georgia, where he is coming off a very successful senior season. This past fall Barbir was seven of nine on field goal attempts and 60/62 on extra point attempts.
