Penn State Trending for the upper corner after a massive visit to the visit

Penn State Trending for the upper corner after a massive visit to the visit

by

During the majority of his tenure, James Franklin recruited the top 20, but not entirely top 10 in the country, but he increased things in class 2026. Penn State has class No. 5 with 16 obligations, and after a huge weekend, the Nittany Lions are trendy to pick up another from four-star cornerback Dorian Barney.

The Carrollton, Georgia, which grew up in Erie, PA, was one of 10 recruits on official visits last weekend and was strongly followed during his recruitment process by Michigan. On Monday, Steve Wiltfong registered a prediction for Barney on Monday to land with the Nittany Lions with a 60% confidence level.

Penn State firmly in the lead for 2026 4-star Dorian Barney

With David Davis and Julian Peterson, Franklin and Cornerback coach Terry Smith have recruited the Cornerback position in the 2026 cycle, but both players only bear three-star reviews. Barney would be one of the 2026 prices as a 150th best player in the class according to 247Sports Composite ranking and the 15th best corner.

With the level in which Franklin recruited in this cycle, Barney could actually make more urgency to commit to the Nittany Lions if he wants to end in Happy Valley to immediately land this obligation. Penn State is also clearly in the mixture and probably the front manager for two more elite cornerbacks in the ranking of 247 composite, who have already visited their official visits: Brandon Arrington and Khary Adams.

Arrington was the first arrival of the official summer visit season in Penn State and is the No. 1 Cornerback in class 2026. His announcement of obligations is set for July 5, and he is probably the top goal for the Penn State coaching team in this cycle. Adams was also on the official visit on May 16 and is the top 100 Rekruten National.

Penn State is in a great position with several cornerbacks, which is a position of long -term needs even after the adding of Daryus Dixson in last year. Adding a commitment from Barney would be a major addition to class 2026, but it is far from the only coveted cornerback that could call Happy Valley at home in the near future.
