Penn State made an effort to continue bringing in talented cornerbacks for the future of the defensive backfield in the Class of 2024. The addition of [autotag]Jon Mithcell[/autotag] out of Jacksonville was a significant recruiting victory to help that cause for the Nittany Lions.
Mitchell committed to Penn State at the beginning of April 2023 while making a visit to the campus with a high school teammate also on Penn State’s radar, Antoine Belgrave-Shorter.

Mitchell was the sixth commitment for Penn State’s Class of 2024 at the time of his commitment.
