Between the Lines Next, we'll discuss the coaching search from Franklin's perspective. He discussed what he's looking for in his next leader of the running back room. He once again stressed that the team doesn't have time to wait and needs a coach who can immediately make an impact. However, he brought up some other topics within that answer that may or may not have to do with the current coaching search. We'll discuss those thoughts, plus potential changes to spring football during Between the Lines.

On their weekly Penn State football podcast, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette/Daily Collegian Nittany Lions insider Joel Haas to preview the College Football Playoff first-round matchup with SMU on Saturday at Beaver Stadium. Is this Drew Allar's big chance to show a big audience what he can do in a do-or-die moment? Have he and coach James Franklin been slept on because casual fans only see them fail in big games? Was Allar's announced return in 2025 a surprise? Or a smart move for his NFL draft stock? And how will the rest of the quarterback room fill out behind him, with Ethan Grunkemeyer and Jaxon Smolik vying to replace transfer Beau Pribula as the No. 2 guy? Our duo tackles those questions and more, including: How much can transfer portal addition Kyron Hudson help the weak wide receiver corps next season? Could former USC Trojans teammates Zachariah and Zion Branch join him in Happpy Valley? Could Penn State see other key players like Abdul Carter, Kaytron Allen or Nick Singleton return next season? How does the PSU defense match up with SMU stars like QB Kevin Jennings, RB Brashard Smith and WRs Roderick Daniels Jr. and Key'Shawn Smith?

And what are the women's volleyball tam's chances to stop rival Pitt from winning a national title this week?

And does Penn State have enough depth in the form of Jaylen Reed, Zakee Wheatley and Cam Miller to navigate the the coming weeks without much trouble? Our duo dives into those topics and more. Including: How much pressure is on the team to dominate Kent State, given the Golden Flashes profound struggles so far in 2024? Will we see highly-touted prospects including Ethan Grunkemeyer, Max Granville and others in extensive duty if the Lions can get out to a big lead? How closely should we be watching Illinois' ranked showdown with Dylan Raiola and Nebraska this week, ahead of the Fighting Illini's visit to Beaver Stadium on Sept. 28?

On Today's BWI Live show, we discuss how the linebacker position is shaping up through spring football. We'll also discuss how Jaxon Smolik's injury affects now third-string quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer. Join the show today at 10 a.m. on YouTube, or check out the replay embedded in this article. Penn State defensive adjustments a work in progress While Penn State fans are excited about Abdul Carter's move to defensive end, the team still needs to sort out details about the move. Head coach James Franklin preached caution about the move being a slam-dunk positive for everyone involved this spring. “Moving Abdul to defensive end, everybody's excited about but it has an impact on our linebacker room, too,” he said last week. We discuss the issues that moving Carter created for the team's linebackers and what that group needs to do to make up for the loss of an impact player at the position. Franklin thinks that it will take time beyond spring football. “So hopefully, they'll finish out the spring on a real positive and have a really good spring game and go into the summer with some confidence,” Franklin said. “And then again, a couple of weeks into summer camp, feeling like we have depth there. Because right now, ‘we've got to create some more depth there to feel good about.” Jaxon Smolik injury puts a new spotlight on Ethan Grunkemeyer Blue White Illustrated's Ryan Snyder broke the news this week that backup quarterback Jaxon Smolik would miss extended time with an injury suffered this spring. During today's Ask T-Frank segment, we dive into what this means for the team and four-star freshman Ethan Grunkemeyer. What should Penn State fans know about the former top-ten passer in the Class of 2024? We'll discuss his spring so far. Freshmen who could contribute this year Finally, we end the show discussing the Penn State freshmen who could have an impact and burn their redshirts this season. While Cooper Cousins is an obvious favorite to do so, who could join him? We make the case for running back Quinton Martin and several defensive players. However, there are fewer roles or spots for incoming freshmen than there were several years ago. We discuss that dynamic to end the show. #PennState #NittanyLions JOIN Blue White Illustrated: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/join/?plan=annual SUBSCRIBE to Blue White Illustrated on YouTube and enable alerts - new highlights and videos uploaded regularly: https://www.youtube.com/c/bluewhiteillustratedvideo?sub_confirmation Bookmark our homepage: https://www.on3.com/teams/penn-state-nittany-lions/ Subscribe to BWI Magazine and Newsletters: https://bluewhiteonline.com Download our podcasts: https://cms.megaphone.fm/channel/LRL3155877513?selected=DSVV2664982394 Like us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/BlueWhiteIllustrated/ Follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/PennStateOn3 Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com Learn more about your ad choices.

There was significant portal movement on the roster, and the team's top prospects participated in all-star games. We're covering it all, plus the upcoming portal recruiting weekend already in high gear. Join the BWI Live Show at 10 a.m. on YouTube, or check out the replay on the site. We're discussing the week's most crucial roster movement news and taking your questions on the show! Recruiting insiders Ryan Snyder and Sean Fitz break it all down for you on the show. Penn State receiver movement While it's been in the works for a while, former Ohio State wide receiver Julian Fleming officially joined Penn State out of the transfer portal. Fleming didn't announce the move, but social media got word of his intentions. Hours before his commitment, on the transfer portal deadline for January, receiver Dante Cephas entered his name into the portal. The one-year Penn State wide receiver caught 22 passes for 246 yards and two touchdowns in a frustrating season for both Cephas and fans. We'll recap his time at Penn State and discuss the transition to the team's latest addition in Fleming. Not all of it is portal news The team also got significant retention news on Wednesday with the announcement that veteran defensive tackle Dvon Ellies is returning for a bonus season. We'll discuss how important Ellie is to the defensive tackle rotation and what he means for Tom Allen's defense as he settles in as the new Penn State defensive coordinator. Yet, the portal is critical for Penn State's chances next fall in their attempt to reload at key positions. Fitz and Snyder will discuss the upcoming transfer portal recruiting weekend and what fans need to know about this important window. There's already one visitor on campus, which you can read about here in an article Fitz posted Thursday morning. Penn State recruiting update While some of the staff focus on the portal, junior days start in January, which are an essential part of the recruiting calendar. Snyder is tracking the players joining Penn State to learn more about the program and set up the next phase for the 2025 cycle. Finally, we'll discuss the all-star bowls that several Penn State players attended this past week. Quarterback commit Ethan Grunkemeyer, and lineman Donovan Harbour was at the Under Armour Bowl in Florida and competed during the game Wednesday afternoon.

Penn State fans got a surprise last month when unheralded quarterback from Ohio, Ethan Grunkemeyer, committed to the Nittany Lions a day before he was named the MVP of the Elite 11 regional in State College. The three-star quarterback is a late riser in the Class of 2024. Today, the host of the BWI Daily Edition, Thomas Frank Carr, talks with Grunkemeyer's quarterback coach, Brad Maendler. Maendler is the same coach that helped former five-star quarterback and current Penn State player Drew Allar rise from an unknown player into a top prospect in the Class of 2022. Maendler sits down with T-Frank to discuss Grunkemeyer's skills and to give insight into where Allar is heading into his first presumed year as a starter. Check out the full conversation on YouTube or wherever you get your podcasts. Below is a recap of some of the highlights about Grunkemeyer. Maendler noticed something special about Grunkemeyer It's no surprise that Grunkemeyer's quarterback coach would believe in him more than others, but Maendler also has social media receipts that back up his confidence that Grunkemeyer would blow up this spring. T-Frank reads those comments back to Maendler on the show about Penn State's 2024 QB commit. But Maendler says that steam around Grunkemeyer began building before the camp season he predicted would be great for the young QB. “It actually started happening before that, and the galvanizing of his recruiting really kind of dates back to January, late January, when it was to contact period where coaches were actually going out seeing him throw, and it was a chance for coaches to kind of see how the ball comes out of his hand, to confirm height, weight and those kinds of things,” Maendler says on the show. And he was getting tremendous feedback from coaches. In fact, I remember one of the times his mom had mentioned to me that Pat Fitzgerald, head coach at Northwestern, was there, and Pat Fitzgerald was raving about the way he was throwing the football, and I just started, you know, getting like a steady and consistent sort of messages.” Penn State getting a “human Jugs Machine” Maendler's praise for Grunkemeyer is laced with instructional evidence from a quarterback coach's perspective. For T-Frank, a film analyst, and Maendler, the consistency of the young quarterback is a standout trait. Maendler explains this as creating “best version throws”. “One of the things that I talked to the kids about is we've got to work towards “best version throws.” Ideally a best version throw is when you look your best it's with spin and velocity and ball placement, appropriate velocity because sometimes we need to change speeds.” The consistency in his mechanics led Grunkemeyer to an Elite 11 finals appearance in Los Angeles later this month. But it's not just accuracy, Grunkemeyer has a strong arm, according to Maendler. Penn State may have found a steal in this regard. “He's in the top 1% of his class. You know, I think just I've seen a lot of the '24 guys throw and, you know, I think maybe you've got [Dominic] Rayola, and you've got Ethan with probably two or three other kids that that's how much velocity he throws with. And where you really see it is his intermediate velocity, the throws he makes, where he has to drive the ball in between people or, you know, to ball throws where he's got to get it over the under coverage. But in front of the over coverage and just that ability to have that arc and pace on that football it's it's really impressive.” The pair discuss Grunkemeyer further before switching to discuss Allar and the next Maendler quarterback protege, 2025 passer Ryan Montgomery. Penn State is actively recruiting Montgomery, and Maendler discuses what he's seen of the relationship between those two parties.
