James Franklin, head coach of the Penn State Nittany Lions, made a notable entrance during the first quarter of the game between IMG Academy and Mt. Zion Academy (Maryland). Franklin arrived at the academy in Bradenton, Florida via helicopter.
Just three minutes into the game, with the Ascenders leading 16-0 over Mt. Zion, Franklin landed to visit IMG Academy. The Nittany Lions are keeping an eye on several IMG Academy players, including 2026 prospects AJ Marks (cornerback), Jake Kreul (defensive end), and Preston Carey (defensive lineman).
Currently on a bye week, Franklin is touring the East Coast to connect with recruits. Penn State is off to a strong start this season with a 2-0 record, having defeated Bowling Green and West Virginia.
