Looking beyond the Penn State quarterback battle
On Sunday, Penn State head coach James Franklin was asked when he plans to name a starting quarterback. Check out his press conference on our YouTube channel to hear his full answer. Fitz goes beyond the conversation about picking between the two quarterbacks and asks a different question.

Having two quality options at one position is the name of the game for Penn State. Bauer tackles Franklin’s dual-position from Sunday of optimism around the team’s depth, without overhyping the team’s National Championship hopes. He digs into the nuances between those two positions and provides insight into how the team feels through the first week of camp.
Meanwhile, T-Frank spoke with Penn State defenders on Sunday to get their thoughts about how that depth plays out in real life. While most fans and media focus on the starting positions, T-Frank asked about the team’s third-down defense. He discussed how players view the specialty package and how those players view it. Is it like a starting position to play a role on the team?
Lastly, they discuss which conversations they had on Sunday that they found most interesting.
