Penn State backup quarterback Beau Pribula wants to spend his last two years of eligibility as a starter and knows he’d likely have to wait at least another year in Happy Valley with starter Drew Allar returning next season.
Penn State coach James Franklin hopes college football players soon won't have to make the same decision as backup quarterback Beau Pribula. The sophomore, who played a key role in Penn State's first run to the College Football Playoff, won't be a part of the team's quest for a national championship that begins against SMU at Beaver Stadium on Saturday. He has decided to enter the NCAA transfer portal. 'We've got problems in college football,' Franklin said Monday.
'This is his dream school and he had a phenomenal career here and I just want everyone to understand that most importantly, and why have we created a system where this guy couldn't finish the season with his team?' Although Franklin has said previously that Penn State players who enter the portal are no longer part of the program's plans, he was willing to make an exception for Pribula.
