Sounds like he was going to pull te trigger for PSU, but wants to take look at Bama, which I am sure Fitzpatrick is pushing for.

In “the hot spot” or not, Penn State faces stiff competition in the late recruitment of Jersey City (N.J.) St. Peter’s Prep quarterback Brandon Wimbush. The four-star prospect is considering Penn State and Ohio State, among others, and just yesterday received a scholarship offer from Alabama.
The Crimson Tide offer could be significant with coach Nick Saban already having secured a commitment from five-star cornerback Minkah Fitzpatrick, Wimbush’s teammate at St. Peter’s Prep. Wimbush now has 17 total offers, including PSU, OSU, Miami, LSU, Michigan State and South Carolina.
The Nittany Lions are still widely viewed as the team to beat as Wimbush’s recruitment comes down to the final weeks. He told NJ.com’s Todderick Hunt after the Nike Football Training Camp in Florham Park, N.J., over the weekend that he would “make my decision in probably a month or so.”
Wimbush has already said a visit to Ohio State could be in the cards for the coming weeks, giving coach Urban Meyer a chance at a closing pitch. He also told 247sports.com that he’s now considering a visit to Alabama for later this month.
Virginia and Ohio State were the first schools to offer Wimbush last year, but there’s been a running link with Penn State. He attended a Nittany Lions camps last summer and got an offer from then-coach Bill O’Brien last fall. He participated in Junior Day on Feb. 15 and took an unofficial visit on March 22.
Wimbush is a prime target for the Nittany Lions as a potential down-the-road successor to rising sophomore quarterback Christian Hackenberg. Wimbush is an accomplished passer who continues to improve the finer points of his game, but at 6-2 and 205 pounds, he’s also a dynamic athlete and runner, ranking as the No. 5 dual-threat quarterback in the nation by 247sports.com.
Like many of the recruits who have given a commitment to Penn State, Wimbush has been impressed by first-year coach James Franklin and the energy of the entire staff. In Franklin’s first full recruiting cycle, the Nittany Lions have the No. 2 class in the country behind only Alabama, according to Rivals.com.
“[Penn State is] just an awesome staff and very exciting,” Wimbush said. “They’re really at the hot spot right now, I feel like. They’ve recruited me, probably one of the hardest teams out there. I’m excited and I know they’re excited.”
