Penn State football: LaMont Wade defends ‘LawnBoyz’ chain criticism

You can’t please everybody nowadays. Penn State football found that out this past Friday when they started something that we’re not quite used to seeing from the Nittany Lions.

As we know, Penn State’s running backs coach Ja’Juan Seider came up with a unique nickname for his group of players within the running backs unit.

For quite a while now, Coach Seider referred to his backfield as the ‘LawnBoyz.’ It all began when Seider often used the nickname as a hashtag on Twitter when referring to his players. This week, the backfield decided to take it a bit further, though.
