Penn State loses cornerback commitment to West Virginia
Summary

Penn State's Class of 2027 has lost another player as cornerback Zachary Gleason Jr. flipped his commitment to West Virginia after an official visit. Gleason, from Pittsburgh, had initially chosen Penn State over interest from Virginia Tech. Earlier in the week, another cornerback, Semajay Robinson, also committed to Virginia, leaving the Nittany Lions with 20 recruits for the upcoming class. Despite these losses, Penn State still retains commitments from cornerbacks Ka'Ron Ceaser and Kei'Shjuan Telfair, along with several safeties. Additionally, four-star safety Gabe Jenkins, another recruit from Pittsburgh, recently committed to Colorado after backing off his commitment to Penn State due to a coaching change.
