BWI Mailbag quick-hitter
Before we get into the main focus of the show, we take a moment to answer a mailbag question from the Tuesday live show that didn't make it on air. Lions Den member Davidwg wants to know the following:
"If Penn State has two WRs play to the level that Parker Washington did, is that enough for the offense to be able to compete for a big ten title?"
We'll discuss what it means to be on Parker Washington's level as a receiver, the implications of how that would work in the offense, and if Penn State could get to a Big Ten Title with that level of talent.
Five burning Penn State Football training camp questions
As you might expect with me, the questions we're discussing today aren't the headliner topics that have domianted the Penn State news cycle for the offseason. We're digging a bit deeper to find five important questions that need answers for the team this fall.
5) How will the receiver position shake out positionally?
Fans have focued on the who of the receiver position, but today we'll take a look at the how behind their fit. A football team is like a complex puzzle with pieces that need to fit together in order to get a winning picture. We'll dive into the details of this group and see if Penn State receiver coach Marques Hagans and offensive coordinator Andy Kotelnicki can make something better from the sum of the parts.
4) Which sub-package rises to the top?
While the top line starters are still a question, there are interesting battles down the depth chart that also will play out next month. While we're not previewing individuals, we are looking at the inter-positional matchups that will decide the flavor of Penn State's scheme under Kotelnicki in the first month of the season.
3) Left Tackle Depth
There aren't many questions about who will start at tackle, with veteran Drew Shelton at the top of the depth chart. But is there depth behind him? Who are the players that can present a viable presence on the roster?
2) What does Penn State's third-down package look like?
Count this on the list of "good" problems to have for the Penn State defense. When the team hits third and long, which players will earn a spot on the defense? From getting after the quarterback to playing in coverage, there are multiple options for defensive coordinator Tom Allen.
1) Will the plan pay off?
The top question is also the most broad. Penn State head coach James Franklin made a bold strategy choice when installing the team's new offense, defense, and special teams. We'll review that decision and why it matters now.

Don't worry I will be back on tomorrow to complain about the WR room 😁

[@bluewhiteillustratedvideo]

Counting on you! 😂

[@AmericanRevanchism]

A Merchant of Venice reference? T Frank knows his Shakespeare.

[@jkay8it]

29:27 this is an absolute fact our offense was severely too predictable.

[@tyamey29]

@TFrank days until kickoff!

[@eggman7527]

This was a good show. Had all the energy of some empassioned editorial! I doubt Fitz could have carried it solo without having to resort to using a sock puppet or some other prop just after the first 15 minutes.

[@KJdatdude77]

Not playing the NCAA game as a kid is a crime T frank 😂 you missed out

[@bluewhiteillustratedvideo]

As an adult I'm well aware of that. No one said I was perfect. 😂

[@KJdatdude77]

@@bluewhiteillustratedvideo you can still right those wrongs and get NCAA 25 😬🤣

[@LoseysMustache]

Steve needs to come join the 2 year struggle session on WR recruiting / NIL struggles/hatred/principal on the BWI message board

[@brettk9316]

Yes great show 👏 and I'd take 2 Parker Washington's right about now maybe just one even! Remember him vs ohio st? Woohoo! Oh brings me to my burning questions, my five burning questions are "where are the WR recruits? x 5" 😉

[@jkay8it]

He was definitely a stud

[@kevinchandler179]

He is pretty damn good in the NFL as well 👏!!

[@GerryLittle]

"correctest answer" Incorrect. "more correct answer" or "most correct answer" Correct.

[@biggriff54]

Did I miss you speaking in the d tackle? Let me finish the video

[@bluewhiteillustratedvideo]

It's not that kind of show. We talked about Randy Adirika on the Thursday Show.

[@biggriff54]

@@bluewhiteillustratedvideo last Thursday you had show talking about the signing ?

[@deansorge4058]

Breaking News, PSU lands 4 WR from Pennsylvania, errrrr sorry guys, South Carolina beat us to it, South Carolina, seriously, seriously, WTF is South Carolina.

[@billnyedoesminecraftjoseph8379]

Actually insane that we lost a recruit to a mid tier out of state program

[@jkay8it]

I think this one was on Hagans straight up

[@jet23851]

That not breaking news. They will be the same old state Penn they have been. Without Joe this is trash

[@kevinchandler179]

He hasn't signed anything obviously, and I think they sold him on NIL and telling him he can play right away and be their number one receiver!!! If we take care of business this season, that guy can be flipped!!! WE ARE 🙌

[@kevinchandler179]

​@@jkay8itI think Franklin should have interviewed Bobby Engram and reached out to him, he was a excellent NFL receiver coach, and player and a legend in Happy Valley!!!

[@jasonnauman7233]

👍👍👍👍

[@jkay8it]

I’ll tell you what Wallace is a beast in the new CFB25 game. He has saved my ass several times with big plays.
