Penn State may be busy trying to fill in the final pieces of its Class of 2023 ahead of the traditional national signing day in a matter of weeks, but work continues to be done on getting a jump on the Class of 2024 as well. One of Penn State’s latest targets announced he has received an offer from the Penn State staff.
Marquise Lightfoot, of Chicago, announced on his Twitter account on Friday he has been extended a scholarship offer from Penn State following his latest conversation with the staff; defensive line coach and run game coordinator John Scott, to be specific.
Lightfoot is rated as a three-star recruit in the Class of 2024 by 247Sports and On3, but Rivals bumps him up to a four-star prospect. All three list Lightfoot as a top-10 player in the state of Illinois, and Rivals views Lightfoot as one of the top 10 edge rushers in the nation (247Sports and On3 each have him in the high 20s at his position).
