New Penn State head coach Matt Campbell knows he's not going to have a grace period when it comes to attracting big names to State College. The former Iowa State head coach hopes to hit the ground running in the next couple years in his new role, and has received a commitment from a four-star linebacker from the state of Washington.
USA TODAY's The Oklahoman reports that Case Alexander has committed to the Nittany Lions as part of their class of 2027. Alexander posted 114 total tackles last season, including 20 tackles for a loss. He also added three sacks.
Texas Tech, Kansas State and Oklahoma were amongst Alexander's final choices before he ultimately went with Penn State.
