Five practices in, Penn State might have already found its star of the spring.

Say hello to redshirt freshman KJ Hamler, a wideout with speed to burn and sky-high potential at a position of need.

"KJ's probably the buzz of the camp right now with the players and the coaches," Penn State head coach James Franklin said after Wednesday's practice at Holuba Hall. "He's an exciting prospect."

And it's easy to see why. Hamler, a former four-star talent who clocked a 4.43 40-yard dash as a prospect two years ago, is blazing by Nittany Lion defensive backs.
