3w ago00:16:39Tap to summarizePenn State football picked up its third offensive line commit of the spring — and this one flew a little under the radar with the Blue-White Game happening the same day.

Thomas Frank Carr and Ryan Snyder break down Robbins' recruitment from start to finish — three visits to Penn State, a late push from Virginia Tech, and why Ohio State never quite got over the line. Plus a full film breakdown of what Robbins actually brings to the offensive line room and the honest question about his recruiting ceiling.
