BWI Daily: Penn State in battle for several decommitted recruits

The drama of the college football recruiting cycle is heating up for Penn State football as the season draws to a close. The Nittany Lions head to Piscataway to face Rutgers on Saturday, but the drama off the field is what the BWI Daily Edition will focus on today. Recruiting insider Ryan Snyder joins host Thomas Frank Carr to discuss the latest in several recruiting battles, give his best bets, and finally, finish with a preview of the upcoming game. Early this week, four-star corner from Florida Daniel Harris decommitted from Georgia and opened up his recruitment. Soon after, Snyder put in a pick for Penn State to land the 6-2 defensive back. So what has happened since then? Snyder fills T-Frank in on the latest twist in the battle between the Nittany Lions and the Bulldogs. He also sets parameters for when he expects news to come from the high-profile corner prospect. After looking at Harris, T-Frank and Snyder take a quick detour to examine where the Nittany Lions stand in the class rankings this cycle. Will Harris' commitment bump them into the top ten if he does flip to Penn State? They review the top 15 schools and Snyder details where he expects Penn State to land. Next, they discuss another player decommitting from a different school. Where does Penn State sit with three-star edge rusher Brenton Williams? The fast-rising prospect backed away from Coastal Carolina after getting multiple power-five offers, including Penn State. Snyder explains when he'll visit Happy Valley and what other schools might be in the mix. Moving on from 2023, the duo shift their focus to 2024. Four-star quarterback Jayden Bradford has Penn State among his final four schools. So, what are the chances he picks the Nittany Lions? Snyder explains what he's seen from offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Mike Yurcich and his big board to decide if Bradford is the top prospect in the cycle. Finally, they get to this week's picks in Ryan Snyder's Best Bets.
