The Penn State football team, like the rest of college football is in the maelstrom of the 2023-24 transfer portal. This first window is open for a short time, and will be a major factor in which teams are set up for success next fall. Can Penn State fill its holes and reload for the coming year? We'll discuss that and more on today's BWI Live Show. Publisher Sean Fitz and Penn State insider Nate Bauer join the show to discuss the flood of news and topics since the last show.
We'll cover the new coordinator hire, the transfer portal, Penn State's bowl opponent in Ole Miss, plus take your questions! Join the show!
Penn State has a quiet start to the transfer portal
As of writing, only two players, punter Alex Bachetta and receiver Cristian Driver, have entered the transfer portal. That's a quiet start for the Penn State Nittany Lions who have been uncommonly good at keeping talent in house during the portal era. We'll look at previous seasons to determine if more will be on the way, or if the team will retain all its players that don't go to the NFL.
We'll also discuss names like Washington State's Josh Kelly and North Texas' Ja'Mori Maclin as players that Penn State has publicly offered in the portal. Both players are receivers, and the team is desperate to find more playmakers.
While it may go unnoticed by some, there have already been losses in the coaching ranks. Penn State analyst Ola Adams has taken a job with Indiana this week, so we'll recap his time at Penn State and discuss his impact on the program. It's a perfect segue to discuss new offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki and what head coach James Franklin had to say about him on Sunday evening. We'll discuss his comments and what the new coordinator brings to the table.
Finally, we'll discuss Penn State's Bowl matchup with Ole Miss. What are the early things you need to know about the next opponent? How does this group present challenges for the Nittany Lions? We'll preview the upcoming game.
