Show notes

Penn State football landed a major 2028 recruiting win as quarterback James Armstrong committed to the Nittany Lions. Armstrong, a highly rated in-state quarterback from Hopewell High School in Aliquippa, gives Matt Campbell and Penn State an early centerpiece for the 2028 recruiting class. On today’s Locked On Nittany Lions, Zach Seyko breaks down what Armstrong’s commitment means for Penn State recruiting, Matt Campbell’s ability to recruit Pennsylvania, the future Penn State quarterback room, and how Armstrong could fit into a long-term QB timeline with Rocco Becht, Alex Manske, Will Wood, Peyton Falzone, and Kase Evans. We also look at why Armstrong’s dual-threat ability, arm talent, leadership, and early commitment could help Penn State build momentum with other 2028 prospects. This matters because Campbell’s recruiting reputation at Penn State is still being formed. Landing an in-state quarterback this early does not guarantee anything for 2028, but it gives Penn State a real class-building piece and a strong answer to one of the biggest questions around the new staff.
