Overview
- Four-star quarterback Troy Huhn committed to Virginia Tech on Monday after decommitting from Penn State, reuniting with James Franklin following an official visit to Blacksburg.
- Virginia Tech added two more former Penn State pledges on Tuesday with interior lineman Benjamin Eziuka and wide receiver Davion “FatRat” Brown announcing commitments to the Hokies.
- Late Tuesday, four-star EDGE Tyson Harley also chose Virginia Tech, while defensive tackle T-Ron Richardson committed after backing off his Oklahoma pledge.
- Franklin’s haul extends beyond Penn State ties, including defensive lineman Garrett Witherington flipping from Kentucky and in-state tackle Maddox Cochrane switching from Wisconsin.
- Rivals’ industry rankings show Virginia Tech vaulting from No. 121 to roughly No. 30, as Penn State’s 2026 class shrinks to about five or six commits during its ongoing coaching search.
