Penn State Adds Four-Star QB Peyton Falzone on Early Signing Day

The quarterback's late decision gives a battered recruiting class a second signee after weeks of exits tied to Penn State's coaching vacancy.

Overview

  • Peyton Falzone, a four-star from Nazareth (Pa.) ranked No. 306 overall and No. 20 at quarterback by the 247Sports Composite, signed with Penn State on Wednesday.
  • His recruitment featured multiple turns, moving from Virginia Tech to Penn State to Auburn before he backed off the Auburn pledge following Hugh Freeze’s firing.
  • Edge rusher Jackson Ford of Malvern Prep also signed, leaving Penn State with two early signees in its 2026 class.
  • PennLive listed the two-man group 144th among FBS classes as the program continues a head-coach search following James Franklin’s October dismissal.
  • Penn State has absorbed 25 decommitments, with some recruits joining Franklin at Virginia Tech, and the early signing period remains open through the end of the week.
