Penn State football adds another piece to an already loaded 2027 class as defensive tackle Andy Paiva from Skyline High School in Draper, Utah commits to the Nittany Lions! At 6'3" and 325 pounds, Paiva is a rare true nose tackle prospect — and Akaka Malloy traveled all the way to Utah to get his guy. Sean Fitz breaks down how the recruitment unfolded, why Penn State beat out Oregon and Arizona, and how Paiva fits alongside Stanley Montgomery on the defensive tackle board. Then Thomas Frank Carr takes you into the film room for a full breakdown of what makes Paiva special, where he needs to develop, and exactly what Penn State is getting in the middle of their defensive line.
