Remembering Penn State’s Top Recruits Over the Last 10 Years

2012- WR Geno Lewis

When wide receiver Geno Lewis came out of Wyoming Valley West High School in Plymouth, PA, he was ranked as a four-star recruit and considered among the top receivers available. 247Sports ranked him as the No. 21 wide receiver and No. 156 overall. He held offers from Michigan State, Pitt, Wisconsin, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, and Oregon, among others.

Lewis was given a red shirt for the 2012 season. He worked on the practice squad and impressed the coaching staff with what he was able to do. Lewis entered the 2013 season with a lot of promise.

He saw limited action during his first season with the Nittany Lions, but broke out in 2014 and finished second on the team in receptions (55) and yards (751). However, 2015 was a disappointment, as he made just 17 receptions for 196 yards.

After getting passed on the depth chart by other receivers at Penn State, Lewis transferred to Oklahoma for his senior year.

He made 32 receptions for 388 yards and two touchdowns with the Sooners in 2016.
