At the end of the day it all comes down to the scouting and personnel departments...I have seen championship teams put together this way so I am not going to discount it but you gotta have an elite scouting and personnel department as well as a hell of a developmental coaching staff because you are asking these people to overcome a talent deficit and create a team that is much better than the sum of it's parts from a talent standpoint...We will see how this philosophy pays off for Campbell...He operated this way at Iowa State in the Big 12 but this is Penn State and this is the B1G...My big curiosity is how much NIL money the program has at it's disposal...This is going to be a very interesting season...We are going to find out how well this philosophy works out for them this season...
We all thought the schedule last was was easy and it turned out to be a very competitive schedule. I’ll take good 3* and 4* players all day long if I got a good QB that can make plays when the games are on the line. It’s all about the QB and I guess that’s why MC brought his guy in he knows what’s he’s got.
I sure as heck didn’t think the schedule was easy which was part of why I never bought into the PSU national championship hype.
@psujoe I believe most of us thought it was a long shot to win the NC with DA. The ND game done it for me but I was still hoping. I believe we were getting spoiled watching Grunk play after he got a few snaps under his belt. We’ve had to eat a few shit sandwiches the last few years homer it’s gotta get better 😂
