James Franklin Speaks at Big Ten Media Day

Big Ten Media Day is in full swing out in Indianapolis as James Franklin took the podium for Day 2 of the event. Here’s a full video of Franklin’s 13-minute remarks and Q&A from Penn State’s Rivals site, but as always, I have some thoughts on his comments.

OVERALL DEPTH

Franklin opened his presser by mentioning that Penn State’s overall depth is the best its been in a number of years. He specifically pointed out how much the highly regarded 2022 recruiting class (and transfer portal players, too) played into this, and that those guys are expected to help during their first season with the program.
