Penn State football continued to build its 2026 recruiting class on Friday with the addition of three-star running back Amar’e Glover. Glover, a product of Middletown, Delaware, announced on social networks that he is committed to Nittany Lions as the preferred replacement under Matt Campbell’s new coaching staff.
Glover is ranked No. 64 nationally in the 2026 cycle and Delaware’s No. 4 prospect, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. He comes from the same high school program that produced former Penn State star and current Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin.

Glover showed continued interest in Penn State throughout the recruiting process, making several trips to campus even before the coaching transition. Although he did not receive a scholarship offer, he held several opportunities at the FBS level, including offers from Syracuse, Duke, UConn, Maryland and Virginia Tech.
Ultimately, Glover opted to join Campbell’s program via a prime location as Penn State continues to reshape its roster for the future.
Glover becomes another developmental piece in Penn State’s 2026 class as the staff continues to add depth and evaluate long-term options at running back. His commitment adds to a growing list of new faces arriving at Happy Valley over the next two recruiting cycles.
