Drew Allar Reveals Why He Chose Penn State Over OSU, CFP Hopes, NIL & James Franklin

[@mrob456]

I am still trying to hold back the expectations but this interview is making it hard. I am getting excited to see this kid throw the rock.

[@johnmandock56]

I am not excited til we beat Michigan and Ohio State in the same season. And I think Michigan will win the big ten for the 3rd straight year, I think we get second place.

[@michaelohara4631]

Well this year is the last year that we’re guaranteed to play both teams so if we don’t do it this season you may not be excited for a while

[@clarencewalder2985]

​@@johnmandock56 I think we get 3rd place as usual. With a win over Michigan at home and loss at Ohio State plus Illinois OR another beats us. Drew first full year and the team been great against average teams BUT teams with same or equal talent we will lose to. Also not too high yet on WRS class

[@johnmandock56]

@@clarencewalder2985 then why would you say you're going to beat Michigan?? I think you're beating Ohio State this year. I don't think you're beating Michigan they're too loaded.

[@peterbigblock]

This is a great interview. One thing it reminds you of is this is a good kid. Let’s all remember that if/when he stumbles in a game. He’s a kid. We’re adults.

[@glrebert1]

It's really incredible how grounded this kid is. That alone is an amazing tool in the kit so to speak. I will say that while all of our expectations are high, it doesn't all lie on Drew's shoulders. O line, RBs and Defense is where most of us think those expectations are the highest. I'm not taking anything away from Drew and I think he will be special going forward. However, I believe the other pieces being great will foster the time to build a great development in the passing game. It will be night and day from week 1 to week 13 for Drew. I think he recognizes that and will put himself in the right position to be where he needs to be going forward.

[@nolastcallstreetband606]

Adam Brenneman is the Howard Stern of college football interviewers! Drew Allar is the Drew Allar of young college quarterbacks! Great interview on both sides of the mic, gentlemen!

[@devinlowe3495]

Drew is the real deal. Was at every game his senior year and I’ve never seen anybody sling the ball like that. Rooting for Drew all the way but as a Buckeyes fan he terrifies me

[@tonyconte9100]

Drew makes it easy to root for him. Adam is showing skills as an interviewer.

Adam you did a great job in this interview, casual but asked some really good questions. Drew seems like a great guy and I wish you both all the best in the future!

[@herfjones3]

I bet this dude is doing EXTREMELY WELL at penn state, what a stud

[@clarencewalder2985]

Penn state always has or has studs are most were are ?. Average at best. Give kid time he going to have growing pains every good to great players do.

[@killmoreturtles]

You can see/ hear the future " growing pains" in his voice and his presence. BUT, you can also hear/ see that ingrained confidence that he carries. There will be some growing pains, but it depends on how quickly he gets through those pains and he matures. We kinda need him to do that this year, but we have to be aware of the pressure we put on his shoulders. I feel he is the type that can carry that, but ideally we temper the expectations and hope he gets " IT", sooner than later

[@jeffbeaufort3798]

Adam - great job with this interview! You asked all the questions that as a Penn State alum that I was curious about 😬 Drew has a great vibe/presence and I can see him doing great things for PSU on and off the field.

[@kevinchandler179]

I agree with this kid!!!! Drew Allar is being real, and negative recruiting is bullshit, and he stuck to his commitment!!! We love you Drew, show everyone what how great you are my friend!!!! Nittany nation has your back!!!!! WE ARE 🏈 Unrivaled

I love this kid and Adam is an amazing interviewer.

[@firebird1178]

I watched this kid live when he was a senior in HS beat the tar out of Strongsville. Watching this kid play against other HS kids he was playing a different game. I didn’t know who he was at the time, but the first pass he thew you could tell this dude was different.

[@patrickobrien5217]

Drew seems to be everything you want in a Leader, a QB and a person! All the best!

[@matthewsilva8617]

Just watching him in his limited play time last year seeing him step up in the pocket and make the confident throw, off foot throw, and on the run throw he was already light years ahead of Clifford, physically..we are waiting to see the mental and consistency part which Imo will take care of itself..putting $100 on Penn St going undefeated this year and making the playoffs

[@Ty-ml7ze]

I’d put that money on 11-1 if allar is top 10 qb which I’d give a 30% chance we will go 11-1 if he is top 5 which id say I’d give a 20% chance just based off raw talent we go 12-0 if he’s just good not amazing we may go 10-2

[@johnmandock56]

Wait til he plays Ohio st. And Michigan

[@johnmandock56]

​@@Ty-ml7ze we are not beating. Michigan at home their loaded.and it's not a white out,how stupid are administration is.

[@Ty-ml7ze]

@@johnmandock56 I agree they are loaded I also think we are better at every single position except maybe wr and allar has potential to be the best qb in the big ten. I said we have a 20% chance to go 12-0 meaning 20% chance we beat Michigan I think we beat ohiostate this year our defense is ELITE it will be hard for anyone to hang 30+ on us meaning we can Play with anyone what makes Michigan SO good? The have a good qb and so do we they have a top 5 rb room in the country so do we they have a better line we have the best line we have had in years they have a worse d line worse linebackers and worse secondary than us if we can establish the Los against them we can win that game and if u think the color of the fans in the stadium will affect how rowdy that game will be you are mistaken the only environment in the country that rivals happy valley is Death Valley. Michigans weak point is wr we will shut down their pass game and load the box. If strides are made at the dt position which it sounds like they are we can win that game.

[@matthewsilva8617]

@@Ty-ml7ze that’s exactly my thought process..if he’s good, it’s another 2 loss season..if he’s great and our D can stuff Mich run game and confuse OSU new QB it’s definitely possible

[@jojowhite9296]

I'm a huge OSU fan and UM fans want to make a big deal about signing a RB from Cincinnati but let me say, OSU has never had a big following in the Queen City. Now, Drew Allar is from the Cleveland area and the Land loves the Buckeyes. This is a huge signing by PSU and I wish this guy the best except for one game each year.

[@hummushero9428]

He probably chose Penn state over Ohio state because Ohio state Had Kyle McCord signed and Quinn Ewers for the next year who ended up reclassifying. That and he was loyal to the team that valued him early. Which is a good thing.

Great interview, as always. Such a humble kid for the hype that’s surrounding him, and the program. Trying to stay neutral about things, but I just have a good feeling about what this team is capable of doing this year. They’re as good as OSU and Michigan. I truly believe that. The key is that THEY have to believe that - And then go out and get it done. It’s honestly as simple as that.

[@florida1289]

All you have to do is look at the depth chart and its obvious why he went to Penn State. Hes being handed the job even after a QB rating in the 130s. As much as I hate OSU (Michigan fan) we all know that would never happen at Ohio State and more than likely he'd be sitting till 24 or transferring out as he'd be just another 5 star QB....but younger.

Ohio state has the worst defense of the group and ? On the o line and qb which is a bad combo, on top of that they have extreme talent at rb however they are very injury prone. Psu has the best defense of the group and although many will say Ohio state has the best offense until that oline and McCord proves itself I have Michigan number one and psu number 2 Ohio states got the best Wrs in the nation but if the line struggles so will McCord which will negatively effect their passing game. If you watch psu vs Ohio state last year with the progress and studs returning on psus side it should be apparent they aren’t better than psu but I’m also a nut for psu football so obviously I’m biased😭😭
