Please use this thread for articles and tweets posted in April that pertain to PSU, and are interesting, but don't quite warrant their own thread. Also, please do not use this thread for articles or tweets that should go in the PSU - XXX thread, or the PSU team specific threads, etc.

Yeah, I don't think Knowles will change from the 4-2-5. Hopefully the younger linebackers are good enough to play effectively in two & three deep tandems. I'm talking guys like Nelson/Robinson being paired and perhaps Wiley/Jackson being paired for PT. It will be interesting to see the defensive depth chart as the season begins, then progresses and how quickly the players adapt to the new scheme to become an effective unit.

Yeah, there are a lot of question marks for PSU this spring at LB. I guess WR and DE/DL are the only groups that come close (or exceed) the questions at LBer. Robinson certainly has an opportunity here. It will be interesting to see how he does in the B-W game, and where he stands on the depth chart at the end of spring practice.

Kinda exciting to wait and see what those young players can contribute. I think the experience Nelson gained last season will help him progress even further this year with his added weight/strength. Last year was about learning his new position.
