We begin with the coaching carousel. It’s spinning manically across the sport. So far, its lone Penn State tie has been a 10-year deal for James Franklin. But, that could soon change.
ESPN reports that longtime Lions assistant Brent Pry could be a candidate for the open Virginia Tech job. It won’t be surprising, either, to see him linked to Louisiana-Layfayette or Louisiana Tech.
On the past assistants front, then, Joe Moorhead appears set to be the next Akron head coach. He, of course, is currently the offensive coordinator at Oregon.
Finally, a former recruiting staffer is reportedly set to return to an on-field role.
Moving on from the coaching world, individual awards will soon be announced in college football. Penn State shared two tremendous stat updates related to Jahan Dotson and Jordan Stout on Sunday.
