Penn State Football is still searching the transfer portal for help at wide receiver, among other positions.
However, Penn State head coach James Franklin and staff haven’t wasted any time exploring options at key positions of need.
Tuesday, the Nittany Lions extended an offer to one of the top wide receivers remaining in the transfer portal, Indiana wide receiver Donaven McCulley.

Donaven McCulley Collecting Transfer Portal Offers
Since entering the transfer portal, McCulley has received offers from Penn State, South Carolina, NC State, Mississippi State, and USF so far.
Penn State Football will have plenty of competition for McCulley’s services, but it has become clear that wide receiver is going to be a position Franklin and Staff attack aggressively in the portal.
