He is definitely a preferred walk on. Same as Sablon and Paige.

Food for thought. Penn State QB in the transfer portal:

Article quotes Penn St. strength coach DWIGHT GALT??? Did he go back?

Senior?

Edit. Didnt realize he was a 4th. Our Galt is a 4th and his dad at Penn still is a 3rd.

explains it

Following his father? Find where his father is at now. He has coached at some big time schools

Can we block Cal's IP from the PSU transfer board?

Some good news on the Ricky Slade front:

I hope they are right. I called a buddy who said if its the case, it's been on the downlow. Which Reese previously said (who has more contacts)

The reporter is "hearing" this. I hope his ears are good. This would be very exciting.

Is he eligible immediately?

I don't think so. 247 says he is not eligible immediately:

Would need a waiver.

I have not heard a solid "yes" from my sources (who I've been texting all day"
One source, high up in football said "this is the first I've heard" when I showed him the screen shot of the tweet.

My info is that it is likely but not yet set in stone.

Overall I like where things are going- trending up. Would love to see a couple of quality OL transfers.

RR is creating some buzz around the program. If he can somehow pull out 4 or 5 wins this season I think it will show recruits we're trending upward and help him land an even better class for 2021. So far, Im happy with his recruiting under the circumstances. If he can coach, we may have a good one.

Careful now....we don't want him to be THAT good and be a one and done.

Ah what the hell, let's go 12-0.

4 or 5 wins wont send him anywhere (7 or 8 might though). I hope to see a trajectory that has us win at least 4 or 5 this season, at least 6 next season (and a bowl), and CUSA East champs within 4 years. If that happens, yeah... he'll be gone, but I'll wish him well and thank him for saving the program.
