On national signing day, Penn State Football finished out its 2023 class when four-star offensive tackle Chimdy Onoh out of Dundalk, Maryland, committed to the Nittany Lions.
In the 247 sports composite rankings, Onoh is the number 257 player in the country, the number 20 offensive tackle, and the number five player in the state of Maryland.
Onoh completes Penn State’s top 15 class, which now contains 23 members. Onoh joins J’ven Williams, Alex Birchmeier, and Anthony Donkoh on the offensive line in the 2023 class.
In December on early signing day, James Franklin stressed the positions that Penn State still needed to address before the 2023 season began, offensive line, wide receiver, and defensive back.

On the offensive side of the ball, Franklin stressed “I’d like to see us get another offensive lineman and then wide receiver.”
Onoh finishes off Franklin’s wish list as Penn State has already added Storm Duck at corner and Dante Cephas and Malik McClain at wide receiver. Onoh is a late riser and could be a gem for Penn State to find in the second signing period.
Penn State will now shift focus to the 2024 and 2025 classes, where Penn State has recently picked up stellar additions in Anthony Speca and Jaelyne Matthews, respectively.
Following the inroads made during the 2023 recruiting cycle, combined with the depth already in place, this season has the potential to field the most dominant offensive line Penn State Football has had during Franklin’s tenure in Happy Valley.
