As a recruit, Fitzpatrick was a four-star prospect out of Cherry Creek (CO) High School in the 2022 class. He ranked as the No. 228 overall player and No. 13 offensive tackle in the cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
He is now joining a Kansas State program that finished the 2024 season with a 9-4 record. That included a win over Rutgers in the Rate Bowl. The Wildcats are expected to contend for a Big 12 title in 2025. Fitzpatrick is hoping to be a big part of that.
