Penn State lost two prospects Tuesday, including its biggest recruit to date since sanctions were levied against the program in late July.

Offensive tackle Dorian Johnson (Belle Vernon, Pa./Belle Vernon), No. 27 in the ESPN 150 and a Penn State commitment since June, decommitted from the Nittany Lions on Tuesday evening, his coach, Aaron Krepps said.

"I didn't get into that with him," Krepps said about a specific reason for the decommitment. "We spoke, and he informed me of his decision."

Three-star wide receiver prospect Zach Bradshaw also decommitted and will transfer to Virginia.

Johnson, the No. 2 offensive tackle nationally and No. 2 overall player in Pennsylvania, said he would take his time regarding a decision when sanctions, which include a four-year bowl ban and massive scholarship reductions, were levied against Penn State on July 23.

"I told him to just take his time instead of jumping to a conclusion, wanted to make sure he thought through this, and he's done that very well," Krepps said. "He's deciding to open things back up."

In June, the 6-foot-6, 285-pound tackle committed to the Lions over Ohio State, Pittsburgh and West Virginia.

Johnson was the second highest-rated commitment in the Lions' class behind quarterback Christian Hackenberg.

Bradshaw, from Damascus, Md., called Penn State coach Bill O'Brien during breakfast Tuesday morning to inform him of the switch to Virginia. He then hopped in a car with his mother and drove to Virginia's campus, where he later shook hands with the coaching staff and told them he already made a decision: He wanted to become the Cavaliers' 17th commitment.
