Penn State quarterback Beau Pribula announces that he will enter the NCAA Transfer Portal before the Nittany Lions' first game in the College Football Playoff.
Penn State quarterback Beau Pribula, who played a significant role in the Nittany Lions' offense this season, announced Sunday night that he plans to enter the NCAA Transfer Portal "with a heavy heart." Further, the backup quarterback will not be with the program when the Nittany Lions host a first-round College Football Playoff game Saturday at Beaver Stadium.
Pribula played in every game for the Nittany Lions this season, including in a key spot against Wisconsin. With starting quarterback Drew Allar unable to play in the second half, Pribula led two touchdown drives in his most significant action of the season, as Penn State topped the Badgers 28-13 to remain unbeaten. Pribula went 11-for-13, completing 10 consecutive passes at one point, and threw a touchdown pass to tight end Khalil Dinkins.
As a result, true freshman Ethan Grunkemeyer would become Penn State's No. 2 quarterback for the remainder of this season. Grunkemeyer has not played this season. Penn State coach James Franklin has praised the quarterback's development but suggested that getting him reps has been difficult this season.
