Penn State Bye week plan
Fans are eager to know more about the Penn State recruiting list for the White Out and if there will be any potential flip candidates attending the biggest game on the college football calendar next weekend. Before that, Franklin and his staff have been on the road recruiting ahead of the game. He outlined the recruiting schedule on Tuesday.
“We’ll watch the film tonight, do some recruiting calls,” Franklin said. “Tomorrow, obviously, we practice again. Tomorrow night, I go out. I’ll be out all day Thursday. We’ll have a coordinator’s practice like we have had in the past, on Thursday, and any of the coaches that are not on the road. And then Friday, we’ll all be out recruiting. The players will, after their academic responsibility, be off all day Friday, go to some games Friday night, and do the same thing Saturday.

“And then players will be off Saturday, and then we’ll get back sometime Saturday night, obviously, Sunday will be a little bit ahead. We won’t have the last game for us to grade. We will still have to grade their film, break their film down, add that to our cut-ups, and things like that. We’ll have a very similar practice tomorrow to what we had today. Thursday was a coordinator practice, mainly a jog through, but we’re going to do a little bit of full-speed stuff. We’ll do half-half, half full speed, and half jog through all four main special teams units.”
