Lamah wisely opened up his recruitment upon the Franklin firing news and he has many schools hoping to reel him in. Among the many schools who I could see going hard for him are Virginia, Virginia Tech and Ohio State. He had over 20 plus offers before he committed to PSU, I would keep a close look out on what he does. Would not be shocked in the slightest if he stayed with the Nittany Lions depending on how their staff shakeup turns out.

The prize recruit out of Prince William County this year is senior linebacker Mathieu Lamah Mathieu Lamah 6'3" | 220 lbs | LB Patriot | 2026 State VA . Penn State bound next year, Lamah passes the eye test. Over 100 tackles last fall he will be the vocal leader of the Pioneers defense. He has been all over the field and their reasons why schools like West Virginia and Ohio State were pursuing him harder even after he announced his commitment to PSU. He is the total package at linebacker and I would expect him to see time as a freshman in Happy Valley.
