Penn State receiver room reset
The biggest news from Tuesday afternoon and evening was the departure of the team’s top two receivers from the 2024 season. Omari Evans and Trey Wallace will both enter the transfer portal to seek a new home for their remaining time in college football.
What’s the impact of those moves? We’ll discuss the portal exodus from the Penn State wide receiver room and the work Marques Hagans has done at the position, and we’ll review the work the team did in the portal this offseason.
Of course, we’ll discuss what the team needs from the group in 2025 to raise the production bar from the offense.

Several other veterans made decisions about their future on Tuesday. We’ll discuss the impact of losing Wormley and retaining Dawkins, as well as how Smith Vilbert continues a trend on the defensive line for the Penn State defense.
Of course, the biggest news was King’s decision to leave for the NFL. How does the team replacehim? We’ll discuss the names that fans need to know heading into spring football in March and April.

Finally, Harrisburg athlete Elias Coke will choose his college destination sometime during the show. If that happens, we’ll react to his decision and discuss the impact of gaining his commitment or missing out on the versatile athlete.
Coke is yet another player from a loaded Harrisburg team, including Kevin Brown and Messiah Mickens, who have either chosen or are considering the Nittany Lions. Mickens and Brown are both high-four stars and top-100 players in the Class of 2026.
