Penn is getting an elite playmaker in King, a guy we feel is talented enough to not only play at the FBS level, but to make an early impact there. Our highest-rated FCS commit in the state, he can fly, and this season he’s showing he’s a well-rounded defender. He’s leading the Cleveland defenses in tackles and sacks, while showing once again that he’s one of the best linebackers in coverage.
