C O M prospect has said multiple times that he won't rush his decision, but he has also acknowledged that he can't wait too long to see what happens at Penn State. Harrisburg High is expected to play most of its playoff games on Sat- urdays, but Brown is considering an of- ficial visit to Ohio State if he can make it work with his schedule. Brown is the highest-ranked member of Penn State's class at No. 57 overall, per Rivals. He's also No. 3 among inte- rior offensive linemen, although PSU likes him best as a tackle. He's No. 4 in Pennsylvania. ISAAC CHUKWUAH DL | 6-2 | 255 | Bear, Del. Chukwurah has attracted interest from a host of schools over the past month. After taking an unofficial visit to Syra- cuse on Oct. 18, the three-star prospect set an official visit with the Orange for the final weekend of the regular season, Nov. 29-30. He took an official visit to NC State the first weekend in November, as well as an unofficial visit to Miami on Nov. 8. West Virginia is also planning to host him for an official visit during its bye week, Nov. 22-23. Chukwurah, who is listed No. 29 among defensive linemen nationally and No. 2 in Delaware, won't enroll un- til the summer, so he has the option to wait. However, he doesn't want to risk missing out on his next-best choice. DAVID DAVIS S | 5-11 | 195 | Pittsburgh Davis has already taken two official visits so far, first going to West Virginia Oct. 25-26 for its game against TCU. He followed with an official visit to North Carolina two weeks later. Minnesota, Nebraska and Pitt have all shown inter- est in Davis since the coaching change. If a hire is made and interim head coach Terry Smith is retained on the new staff, that would have a big impact on Davis potentially sticking with the Nittany Lions. Rivals lists Davis as the No. 32 cor- nerback nationally, but Penn State is pursuing him as a safety. He's the No. 11 player in Pennsylvania. BENJAMIN EZIUKA OL | 6-3 | 305 | Detroit As of early November, Eziuka had yet to visit any other schools. With Detroit Catholic Central undefeated and look- ing like one of the favorites to win Mich- igan's Division I state championship, he's been focused on his high school season. Eziuka does plan to enroll in January, so it will be interesting to see if the three-star prospect visits other schools down the stretch. He is listed by Rivals as the No. 73 in- terior offensive lineman nationally and No. 19 prospect in Michigan. JACKSON FORD DE | 6-3 | 240 | Phoenixville, Pa. Malvern Prep didn't make the state playoffs, and Ford's season came to an end on Nov. 8. He's planning to attend Penn State's game against Nebraska on Nov. 22 and hasn't set any visits to other schools so far. The four-star edge rusher heard from Kentucky, Ohio State, Pitt, Rutgers and Syracuse shortly after the coaching change. He's Rivals' No. 208 overall pros- pect and No. 29 edge rusher, as well as the No. 6 player in Pennsylvania. JACK FUCHS OT | 6-8 | 295 Hendersonville, Tenn. A three-star prospect listed by Rivals as the No. 49 offensive tackle nationally and No. 18 player in Tennessee, Fuchs took an unofficial visit to Kentucky on Oct. 25. The Wildcats were considered Penn State's top competitors when he originally made his choice in June. Fuchs also planned to take an official visit to Northwestern Nov. 7-9, as well as an unofficial visit to Georgia on Nov. 15. He plans to be an early enrollee. TYSON HARLEY DE | 6-3 | 220 | Washington, D.C. Harley is one of the only players in Penn State's 2026 class who hasn't commented on his recruitment follow- ing the coaching change. Gonzaga has played multiple games on Saturdays in recent weeks, so the four-star prospect hasn't had many opportunities to check out other schools. Maryland, Michigan State and Rutgers all hosted him for of- ficial visits last summer. Listed as the nation's No. 132 overall prospect, No. 16 edge rusher and No. 2 player in Washington, D.C., Harley has one of the highest ceilings of any player in this class. He's an important prospect for Penn State but also an intriguing flip target for others. Harley won't enroll until next summer, and he could take official visits in January. MATHIEU LAMAH LB | 6-3 | 220 | Manassas, Va. Lamah has strong ties with lineback- ers coach Dan Connor, whose future with the program has been clouded by Franklin's ouster. However, the four- star prospect is very comfortable in State College, and that's been the case throughout his recruitment. He's a player PSU could possibly hold onto if the new coach isn't announced too late. A likely January enrollee, Lamah did take an official visit to Rutgers the weekend of Nov. 7-8 and also plans to visit West Virginia on the final weekend The No. 2 prospect in Washington, D.C., edge rusher Tyson Harley figures to be an important player for Penn State's incoming coaching staff to retain.
