I mean, recruiting an Elite QB is probably one of the hardest things to do. Most top programs struggle with that. Drew Allar was regarded as elite but he just never seem to hit his potential. The tools are there but he just hasn’t hit the next level.

I will say James Franklin has coached this team pretty damn well considering the limitations of Allar. Now, the onus is on Franklin to find a QB in the portal asap,
Drew was never elite he was a project always who was big kinda athletic and could throw far

My homie used to be the Strength and Conditioning coach with Franklin when he was at Vanderbilt and followed himn to PSU.

He used to get mad at me when I would say he can't win big games. :mjlol:

It's so true though. I can't recall the last time PSU won a really big game. They beat up on all those bum teams in the B1G then lose to the only good teams in the B1G. Then if its an OOC big game it's an L.

I knew it was going to happen. Watching the game PSU fans was side eyeing because I was saying that. They got all excited when it was 10-0. I said settle down, Franklin will blow it. :francis:

I like the traditional look. :mjpls:
In high school, I remember a breh had a home Kijana Carter jersey.

That shyt looks clean as casual wear because it wasn't doing too much.

But on the field:hhh:

And don't let it be a game played on real grass.

The dirt and grass stains, eww:hhh:

Cuz...went to the game. Just waking up. My level of hatred for Franklin is through the roof.
Your QB was selling all game. I don’t even blame the RB for that goal line drop.

Bro. The THIRD fukkN PLAY OF THE GAME I SAID THE FIX WAS IN.

in what world, do you have 2 RBs averaging plus 4 yards, and you're doing dumb ass tight end draws and letting Drew throw the ball!

Is this not football???

I need OSU to drop 80 on these bytches.

QB threw a pick at the goal line that luckily was a defensive PI earlier in the game that lead to a TD. Then with the game tied with a chance to win late, he throws another one to gift wrap ND the ball with great field position and plenty of time to win.

I know PSU fans sick

Watching the game, I kinda thought Penn State was the better team. Tough to lose that game
