How quickly will Abdul Carter take to defensive end?

We start the show discussing Penn State star defender Abdul Carter’s move to defensive end. The discussion centers around how quickly Carter can take to the position, not the chances of success. We discuss what factors will play into that transition on the show. Here’s an excerpt from the article outlining our five questions.

How will he take to defensive line coach Deion Barnes’ teaching as a pass rusher? Carter has the physical skills and instincts to be an elite pass rusher. But learning the nuances of the position still takes time. That training has likely already started.

Penn State defense under Tom Allen and the wide receiver room

Some of the other questions we discussed on the show deal with the new Penn State defensive scheme under new coordinator Tom Allen. We’ve discussed his tendencies and preferences at Indiana this offseason, but today, we reverse the question. How will Allen adapt to the talent at Penn State? Will he change aspects of his scheme, personnel deployment or alignments with more talented and well-rounded players?

Finally, we discuss the top question for the spring. What will the Penn State receiver room do over the next two months? While we center the conversation around the top receiver and if the team can find a leader, the conversation goes deeper than that. What are the combinations of players that make sense? Who will fight for a spot in the two-deep, and will any of the team's young receivers step up to challenge the veterans? Join the show to hear what we think heading into the start of camp.
