Penn State football recruitment lived in a sense of bliss with the efforts head coach Matt Campbell and his staff made since settling down in Happy Valley.

Five-star running back Kemon Spell announced his commitment to Georgia on Feb 2 via Rivals. Hayes Fawcett reported the news on Twitter/X that Spell picked the Bulldogs over not just Penn State, but Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Miami as well.
