Summary

What seemed to be Penn State's inevitable 14th commitment in the Class of 2021 turned on a dime this week, as offensive tackle Diego Pounds instead pledged to in-state North Carolina. Sean Fitz and Tyler Donohue talk about the surprising change and what went into it. The guys see if the 2021 class can be salvaged and try to figure out what's still out there for the Nittany Lions. The news is better in the Class of 2022, of course, and the guys provide an update on some weekend visitors. The Five-Star mailbag talks about a flip season that will happen without official visits.
