The 6-foot-4, 210-pound signal caller from New Jersey has been one of the most highly sought-after quarterbacks in the recruiting class, and his decision to commit to the Nittany Lions is a major coup for head coach James Franklin and the coaching staff.
Smolik, who played high school football at Bergen Catholic, is known for his strong arm, impressive poise in the pocket, and ability to read defenses. His playmaking ability and leadership skills make him an ideal fit for Penn State’s offensive system, and his addition to the class marks an important step in building for the future. Smolik’s commitment has generated a lot of excitement among Nittany Lions fans, as the quarterback position is crucial to the team’s success in the coming years.
In an official statement, Smolik expressed his excitement about joining Penn State, noting the program’s rich history, strong fan base, and the opportunity to work with an elite coaching staff. “I’m excited to be part of something special at Penn State and can’t wait to get to work,” Smolik said.
As the first official signee of the Class of 2025, Smolik is expected to be a cornerstone of the Nittany Lions’ recruiting efforts as they continue to build toward future success.
