The four-star running back from Clearwater (Fla.) became Penn State’s 23rd commit of the 2020 class. The only other running back in Penn State’s 2020 recruiting class is Cocoa, Fla., native Caziah Holmes, who committed earlier this month. While he played running back in high school, he is listed as an all-purpose back on 247sports.com.

The 6-foot-3, 223-pounder is the seventh four-star commit in Penn State’s 2020 class. In seven games last year, Lee rushed for 904 yards and seven touchdowns on 70 carries. He averaged 129.1 yards per game. He also had seven receptions for 127 yards.
