Penn State Fotball added another addition from the transfer portal with Florida State WR Malik McClain joining the Nittany Lions for 2023.
McClain was a 4-star recruit out of IMG academy for the 2020 recruiting class. The wide receiver was ranked 283rd nationally and 40th in the state of Florida.
The 6-foot-4 receiver appeared in 25 games for the Seminoles and caught 33 passes for 396 yards and 5 touchdowns. McClain played in all 13 of Florida State’s games in 2022 catching 17 passes for 206 yards and 3 touchdowns.
James Franklin wanted to address the weakest position of the offense this offseason with the firing of WR Coach Taylor Stubblefield and pickups of 2 4-star WR in the portal.
McClain will give Penn State Football some more size at the position and another potential red zone threat for Drew Allar. He has 2 years of eligibility remaining.
