Penn State’s Coaching Hot Board Resets — THIS Candidate is Rising Fast!

Penn State’s coaching search just took a major turn — Brian Hartline is rising fast and could soon become the preferred candidate.

He also breaks down Terry Smith’s latest injury updates ahead of the Ohio State game, what the two-quarterback system might look like without Jaxon Smolik, and how Penn State’s recent recruiting flips (Jahsiear Rogers, Davion Brown) reflect a program waiting for leadership.Become an every-dayer!
