Ex-Ohio State receiver Julian Fleming to transfer to Penn State

Former Ohio State wide receiver Julian Fleming is set to transfer to Penn State for the 2024 season, he announced Wednesday.

Fleming, ESPN's No. 1 recruit in the 2020 class, announced his decision on Instagram. He entered the transfer portal Dec. 4 after recording 26 receptions for 270 yards.

Penn State, seeking help for a receiving corps that largely underperformed in 2023, was seen as the favorite to land Fleming. He joins an offense under the direction of new coordinator Andy Kotelnicki that returns quarterback Drew Allar for his second season as starter.
