Princeton (WV) High On300 2026 edge rusher Daniel Jennings will enroll this summer at Penn State as part of the 2025 class.

“I’m super excited to get with the guys and start preparing to win the title next season,” Jennings said. 

“I’ve put on 20 pounds of muscle this off-season and have been able to maintain my speed. I feel that I accomplished everything I needed to at the high school level and I’m ready to start working towards my degree and to increase my draft stock.”

On3 tabbed Jennings as a four-star recruit in the 2026 cycle, No. 23 edge rusher and No. 160 prospect overall. He was the No. 1 recruit in West Virginia. He impacts the game on both sides of the ball. As a junior he averaged over 10 yards per carry in gaining 1,373 yards and scoring 23 touchdowns. He added another 225 yards receiving and five more scores. He had 12.5 tackles for loss and 10 sacks on defense.

Jennings becomes one of 28 prospects to now be part of a Penn State class that was ranked No. 14 nationally by the On3 RPM.

“I have enrolled in homeschool and will be graduating this year and signing with Penn State’s 25’ class here in a few weeks,” Jennings said. “Everything has went through compliance. I just have one class and exam I have to finish.”
