Von Brandt is the No. 64 player nationally, No. 5 offensive tackle, and No. 1 player in Delaware, per 247Sports composite rankings.
The Middletown, Delaware, native committed to Penn State in November 2024, but announced his decommitment almost a year later in October 2025 after James Franklin was fired. He was offered by the new staff on December 12, 2025.
The 6’6 290-pound offensive lineman held offers from Penn State, Florida, Notre Dame, and Ohio State, but ended up choosing the Tigers. He is one of the final Franklin-era commitments to find a home.
