Another former Cyclone is headed to State College.
Three-star wide receiver Amarion Jackson committed to Penn State late on Saturday night, he announced on X. Jackson formerly signed with Iowa State but was released from his signing and will follow head coach Matt Campbell to the Keystone State.
Jackson ranks as the No. 5 Nebraska prospect, No. 121 wide receiver and No. 866 overall recruit in the 2026 cycle, per the 247Sports composite rankings. He becomes the 11th member of the class and second wide receiver, joining three-star Ben Whitver.
Jackson makes nine former Iowa State commits in the class, with others expected to follow. He’ll rejoin offensive coordinator Taylor Mouser and wide receivers coach Noah Pauley, both of whom followed Campbell from Ames to State College.
With the commitment, Penn State’s class jumps from No. 118 nationally to No. 88 and is no longer the lowest in the Big Ten, surpassing Nebraska’s 110th-ranked group.
