ESPN 300 offensive lineman Fredrick Scruggs committed to Penn State Nittany Lions on Friday.

The No. 99 ranked prospect overall chose the Nittany Lions over Ohio State Buckeyes and adds to an already impressive class for coach James Franklin and his staff.

"Penn State was the choice because Happy Valley felt like home," Scruggs said. "The coaches treated me like family and they kept it real with me and made it clear they needed me. Also, the commits in the 2018 class welcomed me with open arms."

Scruggs' commitment now gives Penn State 12 ESPN 300 commitments in the 2018 class, which is four more than the program has ever had in one class.
