Penn State football projected to land 2024 Florida cornerback recruit

Over the past few days, James Franklin’s Nittany Lions have been heating up when it comes to recruiting the 2024 class. It started with the commitment of three-star tight end Luke Reynolds, and continued with the addition of four-star cornerback Jon Mitchell — both great pickups for Franklin & Co. Now, Penn State football received even more great news when it comes to the 2024 recruiting class: three-star cornerback Antoine Belgrave-Shorter is currently expected to commit to Penn State.

Antoine Belgrave-Shorter, a 2024 cornerback, is expected to commit to Penn State

The Penn State football team currently has six commits (and counting) in their 2024 recruiting class, including two cornerbacks: Jon Mitchell and Kenny Woseley. According to a recent 247 crystal ball prediction, the Nittany Lions are now expected to land a third cornerback in the class: three-star Antoine Belgrave-Shorter, who stems from Mandarin high School.

Antoine Belgrave-Shorter is rated as a three-star cornerback by 247 Sports and is ranked as the No. 53 cornerback and No. 84 player in Florida — he is not the highest-ranked recruit by any means, but Penn State football coach James Franklin knows talent when he sees it, and wants Belgrave-Shorter in the Blue and White next fall. Antoine Belgrave-Shorter stands at 6-feet tall and weighs in around 180-pounds heading into his final season of high school football in Jacksonville, FL.

The On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine lists the UCF Knights and Penn State Nittany Lions as the top-2 schools for Belgrave-Shorter, though with this morning’s new crystal ball, many now expect him to commit to Penn State by the end of the 2024 recruiting cycle.
