With prospects unable to meet with coaching staffs and players during visits to campus due to the COVID-19 recruiting dead period, virtual visits have become the new norm in college football recruiting.
Last Wednesday, defensive end Dante Anderson and defensive tackle Daniel Lyons, teammates at Homestead High School in Homestead, Florida, had virtual visits with the Penn State coaching staff.
2021 was the first recruiting cycle since JaJuan Seider was hired that Penn State did not sign any players from the state of Florida. With Floridians unable to officially visit Penn State, that was undoubtedly a major factor in that happening.
