Made a website that tracks all Penn State transfer portal moves, including Portal Entries and players that are confirmed to be returning next year.
It also shows the roster for the 2026-2027 season based on the transfer portal action.

Big decision looming for Penn State at QB between JR Rocco Becht and FR Ethan Grunkemeyer.
Comp %
Becht: 60.5%
Grunkemeyer: 69%
Completion Depth:
Becht
0-9 yds: 48%
10-19 yds: 32%
20 yds: 15%
Grunk
0-9 yds: 62%
10-19 yds: 22%
20 yds: 15%
Who would you pick?
Grunk is more accurate but thrived in the short game. Rocco Becht was much more successful in getting the ball downfield field.
Despite Grunk living in the short game, 55% of his completions were for a first down, compared to Becht’s 53%.
Junior Receiver Kenny Johnson from Pittsburgh had 48 rec’s for 695 yards and 5TD’s on the year
23% of his receptions were over 15 yards downfield. He’s a big play receiver.
Accounted for 20% of Pitt’s passing offense
Freshman RB Dilin Jones out of Wisconsin had 76 carries for 300 yards
Rush Breakdown:
0-3 yds: 51%
4-6 yds: 25%
7-10 yds: 18%
10 yards: 5%
He’s from Laurel, MD, could he be looking to head back closer to home?
