  • Did Penn State football do enough to improve in 2024? Locked On Nittany Lions host Zach Seyko and former Penn State sports insider Adam Sheetz go through a checklist of problems that Penn State needed to fix. However, the Nittany Lions did not really address them. Why? Because one move that they made could have sweeping corrections. Find out the thinking behind Penn State's decision making and which problems will linger in the 2024 season.

    Halfway through his second season you could just feel Franklin wasn’t cut out for this. 2016 gave us hope but it was fleeting. He is a D2 level coach way over this head and needs to go

      Spot on. He still got blown the fuck out by a conference rival in 2016 during the regular season. Not only wasn’t close, it wasn’t even competitive. His one achievement in life is a fraudulent “conference championship.” Joke of a coach.

  • @soarinskies1105
    @soarinskies1105 Місяць тому

    The reality is this school never should have extended him in 2021. He did a good job rebuilding the program and left it in a very good spot for a new head coach to take over but instead they gave him a ten year extension and surprise surprise every season since then has been ground hog day.

    Yurcich was the first choice. That’s why they got rid of Ciaracoca. If you go back all you heard was how MY was available and JF fired KC and went after MY when he was available. Funny how the story changes.

      Yes, actually. My record prediction is (10-2), which would most likely get them into the CFP.

      @@LockedOnNittanyLions On paper, 10-2 should be good enough to get the 3rd B1G bid (after O$U and Oregon) but Iowa could ruin the party. Their schedule is so easy that their offense could be the usual hot garbage and they could still finish 11-1.

      Is it? Penn State was not as competitive with its spending for assistant coaches when Sandy Barbour was the AD.

    After listening to you guys, sounds like a losing season. To get super talents in the transfer portal, you need a top NIL checkbook. PSU’s NIL is not near as good as programs we are competing against.

    • @soarinskies1105
      @soarinskies1105 Місяць тому

      And who’s job is it to get the money for NIL? James Franklin, the school has unlimited money and one of the largest alumni bases in America, no excuse as to why he hasn’t made the CFP once before this season.
