Penn State recruiting in great shape entering season

With so much excitement looking ahead to Saturday's season opener at Wisconsin, Penn State fans also have plenty to be excited about with the future of the program when it comes to recruiting.

The Nittany Lions have the No. 1 recruiting class in the nation, according to 247Sports, with 24 commits in what is one of the largest classes assembled so far of any program in the country.

Penn State will not finish with the No. 1 overall class, simply because some teams close by in the rankings still will add a bunch of commits before signing day, while PSU can only add a couple more.
