Penn State safety King Mack has entered the NCAA transfer portal, according to On3’s Pete Nakos.
Mack exits from the Nittany Lions program after spending just one season with the team, appearing in all 13 games last year in his true freshman season where he registered three tackles and one quarterback hurry. Primarily serving as a special teams contributor and a reserve safety for Penn State.
He was a highly touted high school prospect, regarded as one of the best defensive backs in the nation after helping lead his high school team to three straight state championship wins. Named an All-State player and the 3M Defensive Player of the Year twice in high school 127 tackles, eight interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), five forced fumbles, and three fumble recoveries in his final two prep seasons.
Mack played high school football at St. Thomas Aquinas in Fort Lauderdale (FL) where he was a four-star prospect. Ranked the No. 93 overall recruit and the No. 8 safety in the 2023 cycle, according to On3’s Industry Rankings, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
Mack enters the transfer portal with three seasons of eligibility remaining, as the Miami native will now look for a new program to call home for the remainder of his college career.
