It’s a big day for the Penn State football team’s recruiting efforts this cycle. Four-star quarterback Peter Bourque will announce his college decision today between Penn State, Georgia, and Virginia Tech, though we’ll explain on today’s show why this is a two-team race. Head coach Matt Campbell and quarterbacks coach Jake Waters seem to have made up their minds on a different quarterback. On today’s BWI Live show, we’ll preview Bourque’s decision and what it means for PSU target Will Wood. We’ll also discuss another announcement coming up today in which the Lions may get another recruit. Finally, we’ll have the latest recruiting information from coaches on the road and answer your questions in the BWI mailbag!
