Former Penn State Football commits continue to hit the road following former head coach James Franklin’s firing on Oct. 12. The latest, four-star offensive tackle Jack Fuchs, announced his commitment to Northwestern in a post to X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday, Nov. 11.
Fuchs stands 6-foot-8 and weighs 300 pounds, a behemoth of a tackle in the class of 2026. He reopened his recruiting on Oct. 20, as has most of the Nittany Lions’ once-vaunted recruiting class. Penn State Football is set to face Northwestern during the 2026 season, so if Fuchs doesn’t take a redshirt year, they might need to face him on the gridiron as soon as next year.
