Penn State Offense: James Franklin and the Penn State Nittany Lions have a new offensive coordinator in place. Andy Kotelnicki comes from Kansas and likes to run multiple formations that feature a lot of pre-snap motion. He will just watch and learn as the Nittany Lions prepare for Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss in the Peach Bowl. Following that Kotelnicki will hit the ground running and start preparing for spring football. We will look into whether Penn State offense has the personnel to run his plans. We will also take an early look at Penn State’s plans for the transfer portal. Also, the Nittany Lions will be without Chop Robinson for the Peach Bowl on defense as he is opting out to get ready for the NFL Draft.
Iowa and Michigan State
Kudos to Iowa Hawkeyes defensive coordinator Phil Parker for winning the Broyles Award, given to college football’s top assistant coach each year. The Hawkeyes defense had the 4th best scoring defense in the country and directly led the Hawkeyes to a 10 win season and an appearance in the Big 10 Championship game.
We check in on Jonathan Smith and his progress as the newly hired football coach at Michigan State. Plus we wonder what is going on with Tom Izzo and the Spartans basketball team which is off to a slow start.
Finally, we get ready for the weekend with our Big 10 Classics and Schedule on the Big 10 Network. It’s all right here on Locked on Big 10 with Craig Shemon.
