What is the state of Linebacker U entering 2019? Penn State DC Brent Pry explains

Leaning back in his Beaver Stadium media room chair, letting out an audible exhale, Brent Pry briefly thought back to last spring. Linebacker, ironically, was a problem that needed solving for LBU. Youth filled the position room. Starting middle linebacker, the heart of the defense, was a spot up for grabs.

Now, though, as his relaxed body language and words proved early Saturday evening, Pry is more than just comfortable with where the position stands leaving spring camp. The defensive coordinator is confident in his linebackers — and it’s easy to see why.

“We’ve got some experience now,” Pry said after last weekend’s Blue-White Game.
