As Blue-White weekend quickly approaches, here's your chance to check out what events are going on besides the football game itself. Events are taking place spread out all over campus all week.
4-star receiver Troy Apke, from Mt. Lebanon, PA, committed to Penn State yesterday over his father's program at Pitt.
With three returning starters from last year's unit, one might assume that Penn State's secondary will look similar to the one that saw the field in 2012, but that is not necessarily the case. More depth will allow the Nittany Lions to utilize nickel and dime defensive packages when needed, something that often frustrated secondary coach John Butler last season.
Us Penn State bloggers are a tight-knit-crew. Indeed, it's hard to imagine a blogosphere more robust than the one Penn State has, with dozens of news, sports, and comedy blogs all serving our beloved Nittany Lions every day. We write, we edit, and we bitch about each other on Twitter probably more than normal people should. But bloggers tend to be bonded in a fraternity fueled by the passion that drives alternative media everywhere.
And it's all online. Well, until now.
Bill O'Brien has no reservations about sharing his thoughts on much of the returning experience at skill positions or making an already comprehensive playbook even thicker, but play selection and run-pass ratio is usually an off limits topic. Heading into the 2013 season, it is a rather intriguing topic based on O'Brien's history and the current offensive personnel.
Penn State football legend Franco Harris is adding another award to his trophy case, and this time it has nothing to do with football (or PS4RS).
