According to 247Sports’ crystal ball predictions, there’s a good chance that Fleming stays at home and chooses Penn State. The Nittany Lions have a 50 percent chance at landing the five-star talent, according to the predictions.
Ohio State has been given a 44 percent shot at landing the wide receiver.
Penn State currently owns the top recruiting class in the B1G but does not yet have a commitment from a five-star player. Ohio State has already received a verbal pledge from one top 10 prospect in the 2020 class, offensive tackle Paris Johnson Jr., listed as the nation’s seventh-best prospect.
Clemson currently has the nation’s top recruiting class, while Alabama sits at No. 3 and Georgia sits at No. 9.
