Without a head coach in place, Penn State limped to an embarrassing Early National Signing period with just two commits putting pen to paper. However, newly installed head coach Matt Campbell is fighting to bring one of his Iowa State signees to Happy Valley and resurrect Penn State’s lifeless 2026 class.
While he may not be the only Iowa State commit Campbell eventually targets, he’s reportedly starting with three-star safety Bryson Williams, who is also being heavily pursued by Vanderbilt. The Omaha, Nebraska native is the 81st-ranked safety in the country and the 905th player overall according to 247Sports Composite.
