WATCH: Penn State reveals honorary coach for Blue-White Game
Zack Williams, a program assistant to the Penn State football team, will be an honorary assistant coach for the Nittany Lions’ annual spring game Saturday afternoon. Williams couldn’t thank head coach James Franklin enough for letting him be a part of the team, let alone a spring game honorary coach.
William’s dream was to be a part of the Penn State football team, which had opened up this past season for him after being a life-long fan of the Nittany Lions. He worked with the football team behind the scenes, and even made an appearance on College GameDay, where he brought the same joy and good-spirited fun he brings the Penn State locker room each day.
“I don’t think there’s a happier person in State College than Zack,” the video said. “He’s doing what he loves. He has his dream job, and that’s our goal. To help the kids get their dream jobs.”
Penn State’s first spring game since 2019 is set to kick off at 2 p.m. ET live from Happy Valley with the Big Ten Network carrying the broadcast.
