Class of 2025 three-star safety Antonio Branch Jr. has flipped his commitment from Penn State football to Colorado. Branch had been committed to the Nittany Lions since June.

Branch, a native of Miami, Florida, stands at 6’2″ and 172 pounds and is the No. 40 ranked safety in the country and the No. 62 player from Florida, according to 247Sports’s Composite Rankings.

Branch wasn’t the first Penn State commit to flip to another program. Four-star running back Alvin Henderson committed to Auburn after initially committing to, then decommitting from, the Nittany Lions.
