2. 5-star CB Ellis Robinson IV (2024)

One of the top cornerbacks in the country will make this trip up to Penn State for the White Out.

5-star Ellis Robinson IV will come up from IMG Academy in Florida for the game. He is rated as the No. 2 cornerback in the country both by 247 Sports and the composite.

Listed at 6-foot and 175 pounds, Robinson has offers from all the big players. That list includes Alabama, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Miami, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Texas, Texas A&M, Tennessee and USC.

That is as legit as an offer list can get.

Winning over Robinson will not be easy, but the White Out could a long way in helping Penn State’s chances. Moreover, if Joey Porter Jr. goes in the first round in the next NFL Draft, the Nittany Lions can sell Robinson on being the next Porter.

Robinson visited for the White Out last year against Auburn. He clearly likes the environment and wants to see it again. That is a great sign for the Nittany Lions.

The next step is making sure Robinson enjoys himself enough at the White Out that he will use one of his five valuable official visits on the Nittany Lions next summer.
