Ohio State Buckeyes offensive coordinator Brian Hartline has been the subject of rumors linking him to the Penn State Nittany Lions and UCLA Bruins this season. The Nittany Lions rumor is more prevalent, though, given the geographical proximity to Ohio.
As the architect of making OSU the modern-day WRU, Hartline is being coveted for his recruiting chops and development. There's nowhere he lacks as a coach. No weaknesses to exploit for opposing coaches in their negative recruiting. Besides previous experience.
College Football HQ's James Parks believes the rumors of a jump to Penn State have no merit, though.
