One of Pennsylvania's top defensive backs, 2027 prospect Larry Moon will be in attendance on Saturday afternoon for the Nitatny Lions' showdown with Michigan. He announced his plans on Twitter on Monday. The Central Catholic cornerback has had an impressive freshman season for the Vikings totaling 26 tackles including 2.0 sacks and 3.0 TFLs in eight games.

There was hype building around Moon this summer and so far he has lived up to all of it. As we said above, he's one of the top defensive backs in the state of Pennsylvania, if not the top. The 5-foot-11, 170-pound cornerback has earned offers from Maryland, Miami (FL), Michigan State, Penn State, Pittsburgh, South Carolina, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

Moon was also on campus in September for the Nittany Lions' season opener against West Virginia.

Moon's 2025 teammate Bradley Gompers has confirmed with Happy Valley Insider that he plans on attending Saturday's matchup as well. The 6-foot-5, 200-pound athlete currently holds four offers from Boston College, Pittsburgh, UNLV, and West Virginia.

Penn State legacy Colsen Gatten will also be in attendance. His father Aaron played for the Nittany Lions from 1996 through 2000. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound linebacker so far has offers from Penn State, Pittsburgh, and Wisconsin.

Fort Cherry athlete Matt Sieg announced his plans to visit for the matchup on Sunday as well. The 6-foot-0, 170-pound athlete is being viewed as a safety by several programs including Penn State but also plays quarterback for Fort Cherry. The McDonald (PA) native holds five early scholarship offers from Nebraska, Penn State, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, and West Virginia.

The final notable addition to the list is Minersville (PA) quarterback Dante Carr. The 6-foot-4, 200-pound Carr does not hold any scholarship offers in his recruitment just yet but is receiving interest from multiple Power Five programs. Carr has been to Penn State a few times now early in his recruitment including making the trip to the Nittany Lions' White Out matchup against Iowa. While Carr still has a long way to go in his development as a passer, his frequent visits to Happy Valley over the last year are to a degree notable. He does not hold any offers yet in his recruitment but remains a name to monitor over the next several years. Notably, Carr works out with quarterback coach Jim Cantafio as well as former Michigan and NFL quarterback Chad Henne. Cantafio has trained notable quarterbacks such as Dwayne Haskins, Kenny Pickett, as well as Henne.
