Class of 2025 edge rusher Jayden Loftin (6’4”, 235 lbs) of Somerville, New Jersey released his top seven schools Wednesday mornig. 

Schools that made the cut? Minnesota, Penn State, South Carolina, Syracuse, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

“I love the vibe that the school and the staff has,” Loftin said about WVU. “They keep it real and they keep in frequent contact which I love.”

Loftin recently visited Tennessee and will be heading to Happy Valley this weekend for Penn State’s spring game. He will not make it to Morgantown for WVU’s spring game, but the Mountaineers are the first stop on his tour of official visits. Loftin will be in town May 31-June 2 before going to Minnesota (June 14-16) and Penn State (June 21-23). An official visit to Tennessee is being worked on and will likely happen during the second weekend of June.

A decision this summer is not likely.
