Three Reasons Penn State Football is Winning on the Recruiting Trail

Penn State Football has one huge recruiting advantage over almost any school in the country. The ability to fill a stadium with 107,000 crazed fans in a sea of white. The single greatest atmosphere in college sports belongs to Happy Valley.
What do the majority of Penn State commits have in common?
The majority of Penn State commits have been on campus for an annual White Out game. The White Out game is a scene that can’t be replicated. Sure, it looks cool on TV, but it’s even more memorable in person. The avalanche of sound (ask Michigan about this one), the waves of white, and the loudest student section in the country all make an everlasting impression.
The opportunity to play in Beaver Stadium for some is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The recruits that commit to Penn State get to experience every season.
The way Penn State fans support the football team and have 107,000 fans for most games is insane. We saw what happened to recruiting during the covid season when Penn State wasn’t afforded this opportunity.
