Penn State Football is looking to add two quarterbacks in the 2024 class, with the quarterback room down to just three scholarship quarterbacks for the 2023 season.
Via Seth Engle at the Daily Collegian, Penn State head coach James Franklin mentioned in February that he would love to add “a little bit more experience and a little bit more age” to the quarterback room via the transfer portal, but also noted in other interviews that adding a transfer quarterback when your expected starter is a sophomore or younger is a tough sell.
Expect Penn State to add two quarterbacks in a recruiting class for the second time in three classes, after adding expected starter Drew Allar and expected backup Beau Pribula in the 2021 recruiting class.
