However, the Nittany Lions lost four top recruiting targets between Wednesday and Friday of last week. This recruiting news sparked a frenzy of panic among Penn State fans to the point that even reporter Nate Bauer wrote about it on Friday. So, today, we'll discuss the bigger implications of Penn State's loss of Khary Adams, Joey O'Brien, Greyson McKeogh, and Luke Wafle to its top rivals. We'll discuss the emotional impact, the logical next steps, and what the big picture means for the team's ability to compete at the highest levels of the sport, given the influence of NIL on recruiting. Join the show today at 10 a.m. on YouTube to discuss this, plus the latest roster update from the team and your questions! We'll be opening the live chat for discussion from fans throughout the show. Gang Green sets in for Penn State recruitingThree of the four players mentioned earlier all chose Notre Dame over Penn State. Meanwhile, Wafle chose USC over Ohio State in a bidding war that reportedly eclipsed 2 million dollars in NIL money. We'll address each individual recruiting situation and then consider them as part of a larger picture. Can Penn State's current model of retention withstand the new economy of recruiting? Will the program be cut off from top talent each cycle? Bauer and recruiting reporter Sean Fitz will dive deep into the topic to give Penn State fans a much-needed perspective on the topic. Penn State roster update and long-term weight changes In team-specific news, Penn State released its latest roster update, with Jabree Coleman joining the program this week. With it came updated weights for the program's athletes. We've tracked the progress of each player since January, and today, we'll reveal the biggest weight gainers and losers this offseason. What context should fans take from this? We'll discuss players who are transforming their bodies and which players may be falling behind for one reason or another. Nickel corner battle hinges on fall camp We also talked to Penn State defensive coordinator Jim Knowles this month. What did he say about his defense, and what he expects from the team this year? Bauer spoke to Knowles in an exclusive one-on-one interview recently, and he'll preview that conversation on today's show. In a separate conversation, Knowles discussed his nickel position in depth with BWI. We'll discuss the big takeaways from that conversation and what they mean for the team's defense this fall. Finally, despite the earlier recruiting focus on the show, there's more recruiting news to discuss this week. We'll wrap up the show with Fitz's recruiting update, discussing the news from this past weekend and the decisions looming on the horizon for the Penn State Class of 2026. #PennState  #NittanyLions  JOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters:  https://bluewhiteonline.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Penn State Recruiting Takes a Hit + Roster Update and Weight Changes

More to come? The bad news for the top of Penn State's 2026 prospects started Wednesday when four-star tackle Greyson McKeogh chose Notre Dame over Penn State and Texas. Shortly after, industry experts put in picks for top defensive back targets Khary Adams and Joey O'Brien to join him in South Bend. After that, reports from On3 surfaced that USC and Ohio State were in a bidding war for top defensive end Luke Wafle, who was about to command a seven-figure NIL package. Where does that leave Penn State? Snyder will do his best to give fans the intel on why things are trending away from the Nittany Lions with in-state and regional targets. We'll also discuss who is left on the board and what the program can do to make up ground. Penn State finishing June with three camps in five days Penn State hosted a smaller mid-week camp on Wednesday that BWI attended. Several top commits and prospects were also in attendance. We'll discuss what we saw from defensive line commit Isaac Chukwurah, and 2027 target Abraham Sessay. Defensive back commits Julian Peterson and Matt Sieg also attended camp, which was our first time to see them work up close. We'll discuss how they performed. Previewing Visits and Camps to close JuneFinally, we'll preview the end of the 2025 June calendar. A recruiting dead period starts next week, lasting until the start of the 2025 season. It's the final chance to get prospects on campus for official visits and to have top targets visit the program. We'll discuss the upcoming players making their way to campus for a final round of official visits, and then those players will be invited to the Lasch Bash and White Out Camp on Sunday. Join the show live at 10 a.m. on YouTube! #PennState  #NittanyLions  JOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters:  https://bluewhiteonline.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3

Phil Steele published his top 40 teams for the upcoming season, and Steele was very high on the Nittany Lions. Find out where he ranks the program and how many All-Americans he expects the team to produce this fall. To do that, the team will need to be elite on both sides of the football. We'll put those ideas to the test in our latest edition of Buy or Sell. Today, we'll focus primarily on the defensive side of the ball. Can Penn State allow fewer rushing yards than it did last season? Will they produce more takeaways? We'll debate those ideas on today's show. Reporter Greg Pickel will give his thoughts on Steele's analysis and then give you his thoughts on those ideas. You can play along in the chat by playing Buy or Sell with us! We'll read the best answers live on air. Between the LinesIt's now a summertime tradition for the Penn State coaching staff to sit down with the media at the start of June to discuss the offseason topics on the minds of fans and the media. Today, we'll dive deeper into those conversations in Between the Lines. We'll review Penn State head coach James Franklin's comments on why Ta'Mere Robinson left the program. You'll also hear what differences the linebacker room faces, according to Jim Knowles. Finally, Andy Kotelnicki will give his scouting report on Trebor Pena and what he thinks the differences will be in his offense now that the team is in its second year under his direction. Discussing What We Learned From Penn State's Coordinators This June#PennState  #NittanyLions  JOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters:  https://bluewhiteonline.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3

On today's BWI Live Show, we'll discuss the latest news on revenue sharing, Penn State's deal, or lack thereof, with private capital, plus the latest Penn State football and recruiting news. Join the BWI Live Show at 10 a.m. on YouTube to be part of the conversation.

Today, we'll cover the biggest Penn State football news that's happened since then. Firstly, we'll discuss the report that Penn State and UCLA were the first two athletic departments to take on private equity from Elevate's College Investment Initiative. However, Penn State athletic director Pat Kraft quickly released a statement denying those reports, as did UCLA's athletic department. We'll discuss the situation to start the show. Next, we'll dig into the news that redshirt freshman Max Granville suffered a long-term injury after spring practice. Reporters Sean Fitz and Nate Bauer will discuss the impact on the defensive end position and where that leaves Penn State's pass-rushing unit. NCAA Settlement ushers in new era of college footballNext, the college sports world learned over the weekend that Judge Claudia Wilkins signed off on the House v. NCAA settlement agreement. The agreement sets into motion a new framework for college sports where the program can directly pay athletes. Does this mean the end of NIL? What does this mean for walk-on players? We'll discuss the most pressing questions for fans during the show. Fitz's recruiting update and Between the Lines Finally, we'll end the show by getting into some real football topics. Penn State hosted a massive contingent of offensive and defensive line prospects this weekend, including some of the top remaining players in the Class of 2026. How did the team do in convincing those players that Penn State is the place to be? Fitz will discuss the reaction to the weekend, plus share his thoughts about what he saw at the team's various prospect camps on Friday and Sunday. Lastly, we'll rewind the clock to last Thursday at noon when Penn State head coach James Franklin sat down (literally) with the media to discuss the state of the team in June. We'll review three of his comments during our series Between the Lines. Join the show today to be part of the action! We're live at 10, and you can catch the replays on the channel, here in this article, or anywhere you get your podcasts. #PennState  #NittanyLions  JOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters:  https://bluewhiteonline.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3

Multiple targets at the top of their positions will visit, including Carter Meadows and Luke Wafle at defensive end, Damari Simeon and Titan Davis at defensive tackle, and Grayson McKeogh at offensive tackle. We'll discuss how critical it is for Penn State to land a number of the players visiting this weekend, especially considering this group comprises mostly trench players, which is where the Class of 2026 has its most remaining spots. Reporters Ryan Snyder and Sean Fitz will break down the visitors and we'll show you highlights of the team's top targets visiting this weekend. Wrapping up last weekend's biggest events Of course, last weekend was also crucial to the program's current and future success.

The team hosted its 2025 signing class on Friday and Saturday followed by its first camp of the summer to evaluate prospects for coming cycles. However, most of the focus this weekend was on one 2026 athlete trying to prove he belonged in the current class. Detroit offensive lineman Ben Eziuka camped with the program to prove that he'd improved from last offseason. How did that go? We tracked his progress and performance throughout the afternoon and Fitz will discuss what he thinks on today's recruiting update. We will also highlight the rest of the offensive line, thanks to our tracking of the group through the afternoon.

Connor, PSU's all-time leading tackler as a linebacker, is now back in State College coaching the position for James Franklin.  Oregon playing PSU in a prime-time White Out game?

Yet, not every job or position on the field is as critical as the next. So, we're not asking which players are the best or will put out the most stats this coming year; we're discussing which players are the most irreplaceable on the team.

Of course, we'll have the latest Penn State football and recruiting news on Today's BWI Live Show as well. Join the show at 10 a.m. on YouTube, on replay, or anywhere you get your podcasts. Subscribe now so you don't miss any of our football, recruiting, or wrestling coverage all offseason! Penn State news We'll start the show with the terrible news of former Penn State wide receiver Julian Fleming. Reports this weekend say that Fleming was in an ATV accident. From the original report:“In a release, troopers say before 8:15 p.m., authorities were called to Painter Lick Lane in Columbia Township Friday night after an ATV crash. State police explain that the ATV was traveling Northbound on Painter Lick Lane when it struck a deer that jumped out into the roadway.”We'll discuss the situation. In less sober news, we'll move on to today's main topic. Penn State is now a favorite topic of conversation for national media. Some of the compliments and criticism are fair for the 2025 squad. Some are not. Reporter Nate Bauer broke down what he saw as the facts and the fiction behind the hype for the program this offseason. We'll discuss his recent article on today's show. Fitz's Recruiting Update It was a big weekend in New Jersey for top prospects in the Northeast on Saturday. The Under Armour camp circuit came through the region, attracting top talent from Penn State's recruiting footprint, especially on the offensive and defensive line. We'll discuss what recruiting reporter Sean Fitz saw this weekend from players like offensive line commits Roseby Lubintus and Layton von Brandt, as well as top prospects like Jackson Vaughn and Maxwell Hiller. It's also another important weekend for the Class of 2026 coming up on Friday. We'll have another official visit preview on Fitz's Recruiting Update. Better or Worse? One of the narratives we'll discuss earlier in today's show is about the Penn State defense. There's a feeling that unit can be better this year under new defensive coordinator Jim Knowles. We'll dive deeper into that topic today in our summer series Better or Worse? We'll examine the front seven to see if the defensive ends, linebackers, and defensive tackles can be better than they were in 2024. Have a question?

The Nittany Lions have an elite start to the next cycle, according to the latest On300 rankings for the juniors-to-be. Snyder and Fitz discuss where commits Khalil Taylor, Kemon Spell, and Layton von Brandt rank in the updated list, which dropped this week. Snyder will also detail where Pennsylvania stacks up in the national recruiting scene for the next cycle. Penn State is also waiting on a decision today from three-star cornerback Jaziel Hart. The Virginia native will announce his commitment from a final five of Notre Dame, Michigan, Tennessee, Virginia Tech, and Penn State. Our reporters will tell you which way the wind is blowing before the final announcement. There are also several other defensive targets narrowing in on various decisions, which we'll recap. Who are top defensive tackle Damari Simeon's top schools?

Several Penn State commits competed in the passing challenge and the All-22 camp before the quarterbacks took over. Our recruiting team was there in force and we'll recap what we saw and heard from the event, plus review the news that dropped last night about finals invites. OV Recap and BWI Recruiting Mailbag Finally, we'll end the show by discussing the program's first big official visit weekend.

This week, Monika tackles a controversial question that might land her in hot water with many women: is a luxury bag truly an investment? From silk saris to high-end handbags, these purchases are often labeled as financial assets. But Monika breaks down what qualifies as an actual investment and whether these luxury items really fit the bill—or if they're simply expensive indulgences. With her trademark clarity and humor, she walks through the difference between collectibles and income- or profit-generating assets.Next, Monika explains the term GDP—Gross Domestic Product—a phrase that's often used but rarely understood in everyday life. What does it really measure? Why is it important? And how does it affect us? She gives a clear and relatable overview, showing how the value of everything produced within a country tells us about its economic health. With a breakdown of the GDP formula and India's consumer-driven economy, this segment offers a strong foundation for understanding headlines and economic reports.The Q&A section begins with Anonymous, who wants to understand which equity mutual fund categories in India can invest in foreign shares and whether there are specific limits involved. Somya Shrivastava, a PSU manager, seeks advice on when to rebalance and evaluate her mutual fund portfolio. Mohit Khera asks if it's a good idea to invest ₹50 lakhs in a Nifty 50 fund and start an SWP for his parents, while Akila Shivkumar wants to know when it makes sense to book profits on her long-term SIP investments.Chapters:(00:33-04:42) Is a luxury bag an investment?(04:43-06:18) What is GDP and why it matters(06:22-09:39) Which mutual funds can invest in foreign stocks?(09:40-12:06) How to manage and rebalance your mutual fund portfolio(12:07-12:57) Is SWP from equity funds a good idea for parents?(12:58-14:41) When should you book profits in mutual funds?https://www.valueresearchonline.com/funds/selector/category/118/equity-international/?end-type=1&plan-type=direct&exclude=suspended-planshttps://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/markets/with-7-billion-limit-breached-only-a-few-mf-schemes-offer-overseas-equity-exposure-here-s-the-list-of-schemes-12971900.htmlIf you have financial questions that you'd like answers for, please email us at ⁠mailme@monikahalan.com⁠ Monika's book on basic money management⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-money-english/⁠⁠Monika's book on mutual funds⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-mutual-funds/⁠Monika's workbook on recording your financial life⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-legacy/⁠⁠Calculators⁠⁠https://investor.sebi.gov.in/calculators/index.html⁠⁠You can find Monika on her social media @monikahalan. Twitter ⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠LinkedIn ⁠@MonikaHalan⁠Production House: ⁠www.inoutcreatives.com⁠Production Assistant:⁠ Anshika Gogoi

In the second episode of the Bridging the Age Gap series, Julia is joined by Jackie and Emma, two Indigenous women who share the same heritage but stand in different life stages, weaving together ancestral wisdom and contemporary voice. What unfolds is a deeply grounded conversation on reclaiming identity, resisting colonial definitions of mentorship and leadership, and learning to lead in a way that honours both elders and future generations. Jackie shares what it means to carry her Indigenous identity and ancestral knowledge into powerful political and institutional spaces; she calls this a journey “from the outhouse to the White House.” Emma shares how, over time, elders in her community saw leadership potential in her, much before she saw it in herself. Together, they model an intergenerational exchange that is neither hierarchical nor linear, it's circular and rooted in reciprocity, presence, and a reverence for the natural world. “A Birch tree doesn't say to a Cottonwood, ‘you're bigger than me.' They just exist. They coexist. And they each have their own medicine.” – Jackie Tune in to hear how leading, for them, is less about roles and titles and more about holding space, honouring lineage, and being of service to the land and people. About the Guests: Jackie Qatalina Schaeffer, as the Director of Climate Initiatives, she brings over 20 years of experience in communications and business management. She facilitates stakeholder engagement and supports various projects focused on environmental health, climate, and sanitation across Alaska. Jackie served as the Lead Facilitator for the Holistic Approach to Northern Sustainable Communities project and co-authored several regional energy plans in collaboration with the Alaska Energy Authority and local leaders. Her current work includes addressing water security and sanitation for unserved homes in rural Alaska, climate adaptation, community engagement, and integrating Indigenous perspectives to bridge service gaps. Jackie's commitment to serving Indigenous populations allows her to merge culture and Indigenous knowledge with her professional endeavours, creating a powerful blend of Western and Indigenous perspectives. Emma Johnson, a Cowlitz Tribal member, received her BA in Cultural Anthropology from Washington State University Vancouver and her MS in Sociocultural Anthropology at Portland State University (PSU). Emma is currently the Indigenous Traditional Ecological and Cultural Knowledge (ITECK) Coordinator in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Dean's Office at PSU. In this role, she focuses on community engagement, partnership development, and cultivating a sense of belonging for students. Emma is extremely passionate about place-based education and connecting people to the landscape by introducing them to plant and animal relatives. She feels at home in the world of tribal food sovereignty and strives to support the reclamation and restoration of traditional foodways in Indian Country.

Loneliness Among US Veterans With Problematic Substance Use: Results From the National Health and Resilience in Veterans Study Journal of Addiction Medicine Loneliness is a major public health concern, especially among individuals with problematic substance use (PSU), but little research has focused on vulnerable groups like US military veterans. This study, using data from the National Health and Resilience in Veterans Study, found that nearly half of veterans with PSU (47.4%) experience clinically significant loneliness. Factors contributing to loneliness included being unmarried, higher psychological distress (depression and PTSD), a history of suicide attempts, physical disability, smaller social networks, and lower purpose in life and optimism. The analysis highlighted that depressive and PTSD symptoms had the strongest impact on loneliness, followed by social network size and sense of purpose. Furthermore, veterans with depressive symptoms who had a strong sense of purpose were less likely to feel lonely. The study underscores the need for strategies targeting psychological distress, fostering social connections, and enhancing purpose to help alleviate loneliness in this population.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

However, there has been news about former Penn State players trying to make it in the NFL this week. Two former Nittany Lion defensive linemen signed with teams in the last four days for tryouts or rookie practice spots. We'll discuss how Amin Vanover and Dvon J-Thomas can make a roster this spring. We'll also briefly discuss the recruiting weekend. The Elite 11 wraps up its national tour in State College on Sunday. Blue White Illustrated will be at the event to watch two Penn State passers. The team has fielded at least one committed passer at the last three events in the shadow of Penn State's campus. We'll preview what we want to learn about Peyton Falzone and Troy Huhn this weekend. Power Ranking the offenseEach year we track the team's progress in the offseason by ranking it's collective pieces on both sides of the ball pre and post spring football. This year, we're starting with the offense in our post-spring evaluation. Penn State added another wide receiver to the mix hours before the Blue-White Game when former Syracuse receiver Trebor Pena committed to the program. Was that enough to get the position out of the basement? We'll discuss the team's roster, counting from five to one on the show. We'll also track how certain positions developed this spring, vaulting one team to a new number one on the offense while two critical positions merged even closer in the rankings. Be sure to check out the show live at 10 a.m. or catch the replay on the site.

Sean Fitz wrote a comprehensive breakdown of Campbell's journey from North Carolina to the Nittany Lions and why he was such a quick take for the team. From there, we'll shift to the latest recruiting news. One of Penn State's top defensive targets, defensive lineman Alex Haskell, will make his college decision on Friday. Reporter Ryan Snyder has put in his pick for where he thinks Haskell will choose, which we'll discuss on today's show. The team also made the final cutdown for several top targets in the 2026 cycle this week. We'll discuss those names and why the lists don't matter as much as another list Penn State needs to be on for those players. Finally, we'll end this section of the show by discussing where coaches have visited during the month of May. It's a contact period for the staff, meaning they can go out and visit players across the country and continue the relationship-building efforts to secure talent for the next chapter. Where have they been so far? Snyder and Fitz will outline their stops. Top contendersLastly, we'll end the show by looking at some of the team's top targets and discussing the recruiting battles that Penn State is facing to land those players. Who are the top contenders for players like Luke Wafle, Joey O'Brien, and Khary Adams? We'll preview some of the top official visits coming up this and next month in our Top Contenders segment to end the show. Join us to hear which schools pop up the most in Penn State's battle to land a top ten recruiting class for 2026. #PennState  #NittanyLions  JOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters:  https://bluewhiteonline.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3Decision Day Looming for a top Penn State target | Official Visit Previews

The team was on the doorstep of the 2024 College Football National Championship game a few months ago. Now the team is loading up at key positions in the transfer portal this spring. Today on the BWI Live Show, we discuss the team's latest addition, former North Carolina linebacker Amare Campbell. We'll discuss the team's progress in the portal this spring, and its roster now that the team has addressed all of its public-facing needs after spring football. Join the show live at 10 a.m. on YouTube to discuss the latest news, plus more topics coming up on the show! The best way to know when we go live is to subscribe to the BWI YouTube channel and enable notifications. Penn State lands Campbell in the portalPenn State head coach James Franklin made it obvious that his team was looking for help in the portal after the Blue-White Game at the end of April. "As you guys know, we're not a big portal team, but you know, we're going to have to address some issues. So if there is a linebacker out there that wants to come and be a part of our program and play for LBU, the most historic linebacker program in the history of college football, there's an opportunity here to join the room and compete," he said. Less than a day later, the team set up visits from the top two linebackers in the transfer portal. On Tuesday, Campbell committed to the program shortly after his visit. Today, we'll discuss how he performed at North Carolina, his fit with Penn State, and his addition to the team's outlook for the upcoming season. Finally, we'll look at the complete portal picture, including transfers out of the program this offseason. Penn State game wreckersThe team has made it clear that it won't settle until it feels like its weaknesses are addressed, but what about its strengths? How many "game wreckers" does Penn State have on its roster? We're bringing this discussion from the BWI Message board to the show. We'll discuss how many bona fide threats the team has on offense and defense, and discuss which players could make that leap this year. Sunday "film' StudyFinally, we'll wrap up with a final look back at the Blue-White Game. What did we learn about the team's plans for the upcoming season? We'll discuss the biggest schematic clues that the team showed during the game. Penn State Lands TOP Linebacker In Transfer Portal | Who is a PSU Game Wrecker?#PennState  #NittanyLions  JOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annualSUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmationBookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters:  https://bluewhiteonline.com Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3
