Penn State lost nearly half its roster this offseason.

If you’ve looked at the roster and thought, β€œWho is that?” β€” you’re not alone.

Here’s a full breakdown of the Nittany Lions’ new offensive backfield heading into spring ball.

There's also the jobs that never get done.

I run a YouTube Channel and write for a website simultaneously.

What falls through the cracks?
Clips
Editing
Social media
sales

When you work at a lower level you don't get someone else to handle these things for you. They never get done without AI.

New QB. New staff. New era.

Rocco Becht says Penn State is getting one thing above all else: confidence.

But he won’t be fully available this spring β€” which opens the door for Alex Manske πŸ‘€

Drew Allar throwing while rehabbing.

Vega Ioane moving like a 320-pound cheat code. Questions still lingering for others.

Anthony Donkoh said it straight up: he loves playing tackle.

Cooper Cousins? Likely on the right side.

That leaves one big question this spring…

Who claims left tackle for Penn State?

Kooper Ebel and Iowa State Transfers Poised to Thrive in Penn State’s New Four-Down Defense Matt Campbell’s shift to a four-down defense at Penn State could unlock Iowa State transfers like Kooper Ebel and his linebacking teammates.

At Iowa State, Kooper Ebel was a β€œglorified defensive lineman.”

At Penn State? He may finally get to play true linebacker.

Here’s what the scheme shift really means for 2026.

I don't know enough about his defense yet and I haven't decided it was worth investing the time to learning it just yet.

Is it even worth recruiting a top high school QB with the portal and NIL?

We discussed this topic during the BWI Mailbag on Thursday.

Portal QB or homegrown development?
That’s the modern dilemma.

We dive into why getting the evaluation right matters more than the price tag β€” and why QB recruiting is riskier than fans think.

Everyone loves a bulldozer.

Vega Ioane wasn’t just good last year β€” he was the most dominant player on Penn State’s offense.

They just resigned Alec Anderson, you're safe. Though I think Ioane would be a perfect fit and would be the most talented offensive lineman they have.
