Inside the Den: Latest on Sean Clifford, Penn State bowl projection
Penn State’s regular season ended last Saturday evening in the snow with a 30-27 loss at No. 12 Michigan State.
The Nittany Lions’ news cycle was just heating up, though.
On Tuesday morning, Penn State defensive coordinator Brent Pry was reported to be the primary target for Virginia Tech’s head coaching vacancy. A few hours later, it was official.
Introduced Thursday by the Hokies, Pry’s departure wasn’t the only offseason story of intrigue to take a step forward.
With fifth-year senior quarterback Sean Clifford noncommittal about his future with the Nittany Lions and whether he’d seek a sixth, bonus year, or if that would even be a possibility from Penn State’s perspective, the biggest position on the field remains unresolved ahead of the 2022 season.
