Allar’s path to becoming a top recruit in Medina, Ohio, was a little unusual. Like Young, for example, many top prospects these days are already in the QB pipeline, working with personal trainers before they get to high school.His father, Kevin, played tight end at Eastern Michigan during the 1990s, and Drew was on that path as a young player. In high school, he committed to playing quarterback.
“It was a blessing to have a guy like Sean Clifford in the room with us,” Allar said. “I don’t think I would have done as well in those games without him.”“I remember standing there before the Purdue game. Joel Klatt was like drooling on the field next to me . He’s hitting me. He’s like, ‘Look at this guy!’” Franklin said.
“It’s really cool,” Allar said of the hype around him and the Nittany Lions, “but it’s not just me that people should be excited for.” When star tackle Olu Fashanu says his job is to protect Allar from pressure, he’s not just talking about blocking.
