As of January 19, 2025, there is no official announcement regarding 5-star quarterback Matt Zollers committing to Penn State. In fact, on April 4, 2024, Zollers, a standout from Spring-Ford High School in Royersford, Pennsylvania, committed to the University of Missouri over other finalists, including Penn State, Pittsburgh, and Georgia.

 

During his junior season, Zollers set a school record by passing for 2,917 yards with 37 touchdowns and only two interceptions, leading to his recognition as the top-rated football prospect in Pennsylvania for the Class of 2025. Despite his commitment to Missouri, Zollers visited Penn State in October 2024, indicating that the Nittany Lions continued to express interest in him.

 

Regarding Penn State’s current quarterback situation, Drew Allar, the team’s starting quarterback, announced on December 16, 2024, his intention to return for his senior year in 2025. Allar has been instrumental in Penn State’s success, leading the team to the Big Ten title game and a No. 6 seed in the College Football Playoff.

 

In summary, while Penn State has shown interest in Matt Zollers, there has been no official commitment from him to join the Nittany Lions. Drew Allar remains the starting quarterback for the upcoming 2025 season.
