On a super-sized edition of the Penn Stated podcast, hosts Donnie Collins and Sam Fremin don't just talk about the many issues of the day surrounding the Nittany Lions and college football.
They break down the scary hypotheticals.
- What happens when the transfer portal doesn't bring in a difference-maker? Penn State battled that at receiver next year; Does that make it even more important for Julian Fleming to succeed in 2024?
- Is "fit" more important than "numbers?" Probably. But one can be measured, while the other is more an art.
- Is it a big deal that Kalen King couldn't risk injury in the Peach Bowl, but will at the Senior Bowl? To some, sure. But, should players who are sure-bet top picks really be playing any college games once they've established their draft stock?
- If former Maryland quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa is granted a fifth season of true NCAA eligibility, what does that mean for eligibility's very existence moving forward? Will we see professional college football players?
Oh, and Michigan won the national championship. Donnie and Sam talk about that, and what it means for Penn State football -- even if fans won't love the means by which the answer came about.
