Penn State picked up its 18th commitment from 3-star New York offensive tackle Chasz Wright amidst a wild Saturday night for Nittany Lion fans. Even with rumors swirling that Bill O’Brien might be taking the Houston Texans’ head coaching job, Wright verbally committed to the Nittany Lions a mere five days after he committed to play at Temple, per Ryan Snyder.

Wright currently holds offers from Temple, North Carolina State, Old Dominion, and Connecticut and is listed as a 3-star Offensive Tackle from both Rivals and 24/7, with ESPN yet to rate him. He previously signed to play at Connecticut last year, but instead opted to enroll in junior college.
