Offensive Line (5)

The offensive line may be the most important position for Penn State Football in the 2023 cycle.

The Nittany Lions already have four commits in 5-star Alex Birchmeier, 4-star Jven Williams, 3-star Joshua Miller and 3-star Anthony Donkoh. The last spot will likely be dedicated towards the tackle position, as Birchmeier and Miller are definitely interior guys and Williams may be as well.

There is not a lack of options for the Nittany Lions to target. The top targets for Penn State right now look to be 4-star Samson Okunlola, 5-star Kadyn Proctor, 4-star Chase Bisontis and 3-star Evan Link.

Out of this group, Link seems like the most likely to end up in Penn State’s class. Link, from the Washington DC area, has ideal length for a tackle at 6-foot-6 and 290 pounds. If one of the other guys listed want in, Penn State will certainly make room, but Link feels like the safe bet.

Penn State’s offensive line recruiting has started to pick up under Phil Trautwein and it looks like it will continue to do so as we get deeper into the 2023 cycle.

The Picks: Alex Birchmeier, Jven Williams, Evan Link, Joshua Miller & Anthony Donkoh
