Philadelphia (Pa.) St. Joseph’s Prep School defensive lineman <a href="https://www.on3.com/rivals/alex-haskell-235811/">Alex Haskell</a> tells Rivals he has flipped his commitment from Penn State to Syracuse.



The 6-foot-3 1/2, 285-pound <a href="https://www.on3.com/college/syracuse-orange/football/2026/industry-comparison-commits/">Haskell becomes commit No. 29 for head coach Fran Brown and the Orange staff in the 2026 recruiting cycle.</a>



Haskell had been a verbal to the Nittany Lions since May. He’s excited about his next chapter with the Syracuse program.



Defensive coordinator Elijah Robinson was big in the recruitment of Haskell to the Orange football team as well.



“Coach Brown and Coach Elijah have been building a great culture at Syracuse,” Haskell said. “I love the culture and the standards Coach Fran holds you to on and off the field.



“I think it is also a great scheme fit for me.”



Rivals ranks Haskell as the nation’s No. 44 defensive line prospect.
