Penn State football’s recruiting capabilities were on full display with the commitment of Elliot Washington.

Elliot Washington’s commitment to Penn State football on Friday was a shocker, but it was a big-time commitment.

Washington is ranked as the No. 110 player in the country and No. 6 safety, although he’s likely going to play cornerback for Penn State.

He is the 16th commit in Penn State’s 2023 class, which holds firms at No. 5 in the national rankings.

As we’ll discuss, this commitment is a big deal for numerous reasons that go beyond Washington’s ranking and the class’s ranking. Washington really was a home run for the Penn State coaching staff.
