After just one season, Penn State defensive coordinator Jim Knowles is reportedly out and expected to be replaced by former Iowa State DC Jon Heacock.
Jim Knowles was supposed to be the solution. He was supposed to be the one to get Penn State over the hump after James Franklin hired him away from Ohio State last offseason for a historic three-year deal worth over $3 million annually.
Now, he’s reportedly on his way out of Happy Valley after just one season as newly hired head coach Matt Campbell is bringing his longtime defensive coordinator Jon Heacock with him from Iowa State.
