We'll give you the latest on what we know about Penn State's situation and the strain it puts on the program with the potential roster limit rules in the future.Next, we'll discuss what we saw and heard at practice last night. Reporter Greg Pickel will discuss his conversation with defensive coordinator Jim Knowles and get his thoughts about what open practice looked like on Tuesday evening. The event featured more competitive portions of practice than normal, which we chronicled last night for members of Blue White Illustrated. Between the Lines Next, we'll discuss what Franklin had to say when he spoke for roughly ten minutes with reporters after practice. What sort of comments did he have about the transfer portal, and what did he leave unsaid? We'll break it down in our weekly segment "Between the Lines." Today, we'll discuss the portal, Franklin's thoughts on the Penn State offense evolving in year two, plus a long-awaited update on offensive lineman Alex Birchmeier. BWI Mailbag and Vibes Check Finally, we'll end the show with a familiar segment plus a brand-new one. We'll open the BWI Mailbag for our weekly discussion with Penn State fans about the team and then we'll do a Vibes Check on the program by discussing various topics. We're not giving you hard news; we're discussing our opinion about different aspects of the team and our impression of how things are going.
