“Linebacker U” has always been linked to Penn State, and the 2019 season will be no different. Already tabbed as one of the best overall defenses heading into this year, the Nittany Lions will also have one of the best linebacker groups in the country.
Defensive coordinator Brent Pry has to be filled with anticipation to watch his linebackers this year. The unit features a strong blend of veterans and young players that will strike fear into the hearts of opposing offenses.
The star of the group has to be sophomore outside linebacker Micah Parsons.
