Overview:

Penn State is losing Jahan Dotson, but there is a lot of youth in that wide receiver room. Joining them in the Class of 2022 will be Anthony Ivey, who stands 6-foot-0 and 190 pounds.

As one 247Sports analyst mentioned, he doesn’t have that prototypical body frame, but his talent makes you overlook that case.

Ivey had a good amount of offers throughout the NCAA, including four Big Ten schools in Michigan State, Maryland, Nebraska, and Rutgers.

Ivey is an exceptional route runner that can be a deep ball threat at times. Ivey joins the list of three receivers in the 2022 recruiting class. He has the talent to be in a potential starting role for Penn State’s offense.

As stated, Ivey’s lean body frame doesn’t matter too much. For example, Dotson is just 183 pounds and his talent absolutely says otherwise. Ivey was as light as a 170-pound receiver at one point in his high school career.

Overall, Ivey brings a lot of skills and traits to the table that will be crucial for the Nittany Lions offense.
