All of this led Grunkemeyer to go from an unranked player on the On300 Rankings to shooting up to the 176th-best player in the country. It’s encouraging to see all of the hard work that he has put in this offseason be recognized by the national recruiting experts. On 247sports he has gone from a three-star to a four-star player as well, and he will continue to rise up the boards when he laces up his cleats this fall.

The question becomes will he actually play in this game, or will the date of this game conflict with his early enrollment at Penn State? Penn State football has had two quarterbacks that have recently played in this game, Michael Johnson Jr in 2019 and Sean Clifford in 2017. Regardless if Grunkemeyer plays or not, it’s still a great accolade to add to his already impressive resume.
