Five intriguing prospects attending Penn State’s junior day

The weekend has arrived, but for Penn State’s coaches, the work is just getting started. With 2023 offensive lineman Chimdy Onoh set to begin an official visit later today, as well as linebacker Kris Jones taking an unofficial visit, James Franklin and the entire Penn State football staff will be busy Friday.

It ramps up even more tomorrow, with roughly 40 of the region’s top prospects headed to State College for the first of three junior days. That list includes over 20 players who have already earned a scholarship from the Nittany Lions.

Who stands out the most? I give my thoughts below.
