West Virginia recruits against Penn State's lack of 1st-round draft picks; Bill O'Brien gets his quarterback, and more

Today's Penn State football news headlines feature a West Virginia recruiting graphic that made waves in the Mid-Atlantic and the hopeful end of former coach Bill O'Brien's long journey to find his quarterback with the Houston Texans.

West Virginia fired a shot in the direction of rivals from neighboring states about the program's success in the NFL draft in the past five seasons. That number compares favorably to Virginia Tech (two), Pittsburgh (one), Maryland (none) and Penn State (none), though it might lack context when it comes to the Nittany Lions. The dynamic also figures to change, starting with Saquon Barkley in 2018.
