Thanks for the post. I disagree with the WSJ. Tom Allen, now at Clemson, and Manny Diaz, now at Duke, were both very good DCs at PSU. I think the retention of starters on the Edge Dennis-Sutton, DL Durant, LB DeLuca, CB Harris, S Wheatley, and rubber ball S King Mack, PSU to Bama and back, provides Knowles with the athletes to field another strong D in 2025.

OC Andy Kotelnicki helped improve QB Drew Allar's play last season, notwithstanding a bad group of wide receivers. The three wideouts transferring to PSU, including Pena from Syracuse, give Andy and Drew more toys to play with, helped by the return of stud RBs Singleton and Allen and a very good TE replacing do-it-all Ty Warren. along with four starting OL players, should improve PSU's production on offense.

Tosh likely stays up late trying to come up with a plan to hold down the two returning RBs who left skid marks on the backs of OBD players on D, with both going over 100 yards in the conference champ game.

In the preseason, Knowles has acknowledged that this group of defenders does not need new schemes to be top drawer in 2025, and that the time is now for the D to again step up.

However, PSU players, coaches, and fans are not prepared for Forum Fanatics being there to turn a White Out into a Black Out. 😎

FootballScoop on Jim Knowles.

Will DC Jim help Little Game Jim win the B1G ones? Fortunately for both Jims, Michigan is not PSU's 2025 schedule.
