Penn State Lands OT Pete Eglitis as Campbell’s Flip Pipeline From Iowa State Expands

His pledge underscores Campbell’s rebuild of the 2026 class via LOI releases from former Iowa State signees.

Overview

Eglitis, a three-star offensive tackle from Columbus, Ohio, committed to Penn State after being released from his Iowa State letter of intent.
He is the fifth former Cyclone signee to switch to the Nittany Lions, joining Tyrell Chatman, Bryson Williams, Kase Evans and Lucas Tenbrock.
PennLive reports that fellow offensive lineman Mason Bandhauer also committed, giving Campbell two more additions from Iowa State’s 2026 group.
Outlets list varying class sizes after the latest pledges, with estimates ranging from seven to nine total commitments and six reported flips from Iowa State in the most recent tally.
Penn State signed only Jackson Ford and Peyton Falzone during the early period before Campbell’s hire, and the class is now ranked around No. 120 nationally by 247Sports after the newest additions.
