James Franklin reveals Drew Allar’s offseason transformation at Big Ten Media Days

Last season, Beau Pribula and Tyler Warren both provided Penn State with a rushing element at the quarterback position, spelling Drew Allar to give the defense a different look. Heading into 2025, Penn State has one of the most loaded rosters in the country and national championship expectations, but both those players are gone, Pribula at Missouri and Warren in the NFL.

Despite those two significant losses, James Franklin doesn’t expect to sacrifice that element from his team’s offense, and at Big Ten Media Days on Wednesday, in an interview with Colin Cowherd, the 12th-year head coach of the Nittany Lions revealed why.
