Penn State football added another 2027 defensive back commitment as safety Caleb Cooper picked the Nittany Lions over Virginia Tech and Wisconsin. Cooper gives Penn State another physical safety prospect in the class and adds to a secondary group that is clearly becoming a major priority. On today’s Locked On Nittany Lions, Zach breaks down Caleb Cooper’s fit, the comparison to Marcus Neil, why Dion Broomfield’s relationship mattered, and how Penn State is building its defensive back room. The episode also gets into Semajay Robinson being back on flip watch with Virginia predictions, Terry Smith’s cornerback room, Kei'Shjuan Telfair, Zachary Gleason, Karan Caesar, Dhillon McGee, Lucas Rhoa, Elijah Guertin, Khalil Taylor, DeShawn Hall, Case Alexander, Tyson Washington, and the bigger 2027 recruiting picture. This matters because Penn State’s 2027 class has real momentum, but modern recruiting can change fast. The Nittany Lions may be adding important pieces, but they also have to protect the commitments already in the class.
