My thoughts on how the 2016 class will end up:

I believe that Penn State will add a few more to DaPride16 before/on Nationl Signing Day February 3rd.

Wide Receiver: I think we will take either Dredrick Snelson who is still currently committed to Minnesota. Snelson will be taking an official visit to Happy Valley next weekend (1/29). Or current Temple commit, Dae'lun Darien, who was offered by PSU a few days ago and will be taking an OV on the 29th as well.

Khaleke Hudson: I think this one is down to PSU or Michigan. Prior to Hudson's OV to Michigan last weekend, I would have been shocked if he went anywhere other than PSU. He had a really good visit to Michigan, but I still like Penn State's chances to land Hudson's talent. I'm going 70% Penn State on this one.

Damar Hamlin: Very quiet throughout the whole process, which I respect and like. Down to Penn State, Pitt, and Ohio State. Damar will be announcing live on TV February 1st. Going to be honest , if someone tells you where Damar is going to sign, they are lying. I think all 3 schools still have a good chance to land Hamlin's talent, but going to go 30% PSU.

Brendan Ferns: 4-star linebacker out of Ohio. Eliminated home state Buckeyes due to not having desired major. Down to WVU and Penn State. Ferns has family ties to WVU, but could also carry on the Linebacker U tradition in Happy Valley. Ferns was supposed to be in PSU this weekend on his OV, but cancelled last minute (Hoping due to weather). With less than 2 weeks til NSD, hoping he can schedule another visit quickly. Still like PSU's chance, going 60% PSU.

Kyzir White: #1 ranked Junior College safety from Scranton, PA who is currently committed to WVU. Like Ferns, was supposed to be visiting Happy Valley this weekend but cancelled (again hoping due to weather). Kyzir had a really good visit a little over a week ago out west to USC. Think the Trojans increased their chances here. Unless Kyzir can schedule another visit to PSU, I'm thinking he remains at WVU or maybe looks toward USC. Going 15% PSU.

Defensive Tackle: Penn State would definitely benefit with another DT in this class after losing Zettel and Johnson to NFL. Currently have Ellison Jordan and Michael Dwumfour committed, but is no secret that Dwumfour like Michigan after taking an OV there last weekend. Penn State recently offered Amir Watts out of Chicago and visited him the following day. With very little time left until NSD, this comes down to strictly if Watts can take a visit to State College. Low chances here, 10% PSU.

Alex Barbir: With Quinn Nordin looking around at Michigan, Baylor, USC, Penn State recently offered GA native and Rutgers commit Alex Barbir. Barbir is visiting Rutgers this weekend and is scheduled to visit Louisville next weekend. Can PSU get Barbir to visit Happy Valley next weekend rather than Louisville? Think that's where this one comes down to. But I do like our chances here and getting Alex to flip from Ruters because, well Rutgers. Going 50% PSU.
