Four-star WR Jaden Dottin set to return to Penn State

One of Penn State's top 2020 targets, WR Jaden Dottin, will be back on campus soon.

On Wednesday evening, the four-star prospect confirmed to Blue White Illustrated that he'll be back on campus next month, as he's planning to attend Penn State's third spring practice, which takes place Saturday, March 16.

A resident of Suffield, Conn., Dottin has already taken three visits to University Park. He was on campus twice this past summer, one of which was for the Lasch Bash barbecue in July. He also attended the final game of the season, Nov. 24 against Maryland.

“I got to chill with the coaches for a bit. I saw them probably an hour or two before the game," Dottin said in an interview following his visit in November. "I talked to Coach Franklin and also their [offensive coordinator], Coach Rahne."

He added, “The weather wasn’t great, but being from New England, I’m used to all of that. It wasn’t too bad. I was still impressed with all the fans that showed up. It was still a fun atmosphere to see.”

In addition to the Nittany Lions, Dottin has earned 13 verbal scholarship offers. Boston College, Duke, Michigan, Michigan State, Pitt, Purdue, Syracuse and Wake Forest are some of the more notable schools. Since the end of the season, Dottin has visited two of those programs, checking out Michigan in December and Duke earlier this month.

This past season, Dottin totaled 593 yards on just 29 receptions, scoring six touchdowns. He added five interceptions and four pass deflections on defense. He was named first-team All-NEPSAC.
