Penn State's post-Justin Fields recruiting plan; 2018 commits who can play early, and more

Today's Penn State football news headlines feature the Lions' options following the de-commitment of quarterback Justin Fields and a look at 2018 recruits with the best shot to see the field early.

Fields, a five-star prospect from Kennesaw, Ga., announced his de-commitment last night via Twitter, which didn't come as a huge surprise as his star rose and top ACC and SEC programs turned up the heat in their pursuit. Fields said Penn State was still one of his top schools, but early speculation suggests Florida, Florida State, Georgia and Auburn are new frontrunners for his services.
