Penn State football legacy recruit predicted to land at Notre Dame

You don’t always have to follow in your father’s footsteps. That applies in life and on the football field. We see that more and more every year; just because a player’s father played college football at one school doesn’t mean his son has to as well. However, if the stars align, it’s always great to keep the legacy growing. The Penn State football team has been out of the hunt on 2025 recruiting class LB Anthony Sacca, who is the son of ex-Nittany Lion QB Tony Sacca, for over a month. Now, it appears the final nail is in the coffin with a new crystal ball to Notre Dame.

Penn State football legacy prospect predicted to land at Notre Dame

Anthony Sacca is a four-star linebacker in the 2025 recruiting class, according to 247Sports. While the Nittany Lions are doing well at the position in the current cycle, it’s never easy seeing the son of a legacy player head elsewhere. Especially when Sacca plays his high school football at St. Joesph’s Prep in Philadelphia.

Now, Tom Loy of 247Sports has announced that he is placing a crystal ball for Sacca to commit to Notre Dame. Loy isn’t alone in his prediction, as national recruiting insider Brian Dohn also has a crystal ball in favor of the Fighting Irish. While anything can happen in the world of college football recruiting, it looks like the door for Sacca to suit up for the Nittany Lions is closed for now.
