In their attempt to stack some wins on the recruiting trail, Penn State are trying to sway a three star class of 2027 recruit from the grasp of Syracuse.
Stanley Montgomery has been a verbal commit to Syracuse since last June. However, last Saturday, he took an unofficial visit to Penn State for Junior Day. In fact, he was so impressed with the campus, that he ended up scheduling an official visit to the school and a personal meeting with new head coach Matt Campbell.

Montgomery had also recently held a visit with Virginia, and is now up to 14 scholarship offers after Temple and Penn State recently offered him.
It is important to note that Montgomery is from Pennsylvania, having attended Archbishop Ryan High School, winning the PCL Catholic Division title with them in the 2025 season. As both an offensive and defensive lineman, he was named to the PCL All-Catholic Blue Division first team. In his junior, he recorded 45 total tackles, eight sacks, and 19 tackles for loss.
He also seems to be trending to four stars in the class as well. Currently, 247Sports has him as the No. 536 prospect overall, the No. 56 at defensive lineman, and No. 18 in Pennsylvania.
