In their recruiting Class of 2024, Penn State signed offensive tackle Eagan Boyer (6’8”, 260) from Hough High School in Cornelius, North Carolina.
A year later, the Nittany Lions program is back trying to land another offensive lineman from that state.
2025 3-star offensive lineman Michael Gibbs made the decision to narrow his list of offers down to five schools and Penn State has made the cut.
The 6’4”, 300-pounder from Hoggard High School in Wilmington, North Carolina says he’ll be deciding between Penn State, Duke, NC State, Virginia and Virginia Tech.
