Former Penn State defensive back Tyler Rudolph is transferring to the University of Massachusetts, he announced via Twitter Friday morning.

Rudolph’s commitment comes after a little over two weeks in the NCAA transfer portal.

A member of Penn State’s Class of 2019, Rudolph was recruited as a four-star safety out of Waterbury, Connecticut. Rudolph was the eighth-ranked player in Penn State’s class and the No. 3-ranked player coming out of Connecticut.

Over his three seasons with the Nittany Lions, Rudolph was only able to appear in twelve games. He recorded a career-high five tackles against Ball State this season.

Rudolph is joining a UMass team that is coming off an abysmal 1-11 season. His commitment is certainly one of consequence, as the Minutemen’s defense was especially troublesome, giving up an average of over 43 points a game last season.

Having used a redshirt year at Penn State, Rudolph will have up to three years of eligibility remaining in his collegiate career.
