Penn State heading into Rose Bowl at nearly full strength: BWI Daily
Penn State football held media day on Friday for the 2023 Rose Bowl game against Utah. Check out the BWI Daily Edition to get you caught up on all of the news and notes from that event and the weekend’s news. Due to the weekly schedule, including national signing day (and T-Frank being sick), Monday’s live show has been postponed.
However, Nate Bauer and Sean Fitz still provide you with the latest information on Penn State football, so subscribe to the Daily Edition on YouTube to stay up-to-date.
Penn State transfer portal news
Bauer and Fitz start with the news of the day, which includes non-Penn State transfer portal news, with two former players finding new homes. Both quarterback Christian Veilleux and defensive end Rodney McGraw announced new destinations for 2023, which the duo discusses. They also discuss why defensive end Nick Tarburton likely decided to declare for the NFL draft and why the staff will miss his presence.
Next, they profile Penn State’s first transfer portal acquisition, Punter Riley Thompson from FAU. They’ll explain why his “freshman” status is misleading and what he’ll bring to the special team’s unit.
