James Franklin explains why Drew Allar hasn't been named Penn State's starting quarterback.
Penn State quarterbacks Beau Pribula,Jaxon Smolik, Drew Allar and Jack Lambert during team photo day on Aug. 19, 2023. Joe Hermitt | [email protected] before Penn State’s season opener against West Virginia, the big question — the one most people know the answer to — has yet to be formally answered.
Franklin said he anticipates that it will be Greene running the Mountaineers’ offense. Brown can anticipate the same with Allar and Penn State. Allar appeared in all but three games in 2022, completing 35 of 60 passes for 344 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also rushed for 52 yards and a touchdown on 18 carries. Those reps were invaluable for Allar. And by all accounts, he continued that momentum during spring and summer camp.
“But I think Drew’s had, I would say, a good camp — a camp that’s given the coaches and his teammates a bunch of confidence.” Franklin also complimented Pribula, the former four-star quarterback from Central York. Franklin called Pribula a “bigger Trace.” His ability to run provides a different look to Allar, who can shrug off sacks but isn’t known as a scrambler. Franklin also praised true freshman Jaxon Smolik for his offseason.
