Frederick Henry Scruggs is currently playing out one of the great overcoming obstacles stories in Penn State history. Well known by his nickname of Juice, Scruggs was a touted offensive line recruit who seemed destined for a standout career.
That’s happened - but in an unexpected way. Scruggs missed the 2019 season after a car accident that left him with significant injuries. Even with the craziness of training and practicing with COVID procedures in place, Scruggs worked his way onto the field in 2020 for the abbreviated Big Ten schedule and played in seven of the nine games.
