2024 four-star OT includes Penn State in his Top 10
It’s no secret that in recent years the offensive line group has been widely criticized by Penn State fans. The unit has certainly improved and in large part due to the level of recruits coming into the program.
On March 23, a highly coveted offensive lineman prospect cut his list of schools down to his top 10. Andrew Sprague is a four-star player out of Missouri who is ranked 135th nationally in the On3 database. Nicknamed “Chooch,” he is listed as 6’8″ and 270 pounds.
Sprague included Penn State in his top 10 that has big named schools across the country. With one four-start offensive lineman in the 2024 class already committed to the Nittany Lions, signing Sprague could potentially set up a young core of tackles for the future.
It’s still early in his recruitment as can be seen by the long list of schools. The other nine are USC, Oklahoma, Notre Dame, Michigan, LSU, Stanford, Oregon, Missouri, and Nebraska.
Blessed to be in this position! I will be focusing on these 10 schools! @Hayesfawcett3 pic.twitter.com/6Vf1X1lejO

According to On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine, Nebraska is leading the way to sign Sprague with a 23.6% chance. Kansas is listed second with 14.0%, but they did not make his top 10.
The machine will need to be updated after he announced the schools he will be focusing on. Penn State was given a less than one percent chance to land Sprague prior to his announcement.
He recently spoke with On3’s Hayes Fawcett about the Nittany Lions saying, “Penn State is in the mix because of how they develop oline and their elite atmosphere and fanbase.”
This would be an awesome signing for Penn State. Getting multiple coveted offensive line talents in a single class would set the offense up for success in the future.
