Penn State Football: Winter workouts, Senior Bowl and Nick Singleton
Penn State football started winter workouts this week, and several players are already drawing praise for their performance. Host Thomas Frank Carr and senior Editor for Blue White Illustrated, Nate Bauer, discuss that and more on the show.
They start by discussing praise from new strength and conditioning coordinator Chuck Losey for Clifford’s work during the speed session of winter workouts. Losey mentioned Clifford’s training app and how the sixth-year senior is performing at a standout level in a Tweet from earlier in the week. Bauer and T-Frank discuss the merits of this praise and how it may seem familiar to Penn State fans. However, they also explain why it’s still valid and essential. After that, T-Frank explains why it also makes an uphill task for the young quarterbacks to unseat Clifford as the starter.
From there, they discuss Penn State running back Nick Singleton’s newest award and how his presence along with the development of some other young offensive players could infuse hope in fans for next season. Does Bauer agree? T-Frank singles out two players that can change the trajectory of the Penn State running game for their unique skills.
Next, they discuss a social media post from sports personality Taylor Rooks. Rooks commented on Rams receiver Odell Beckham Jr. earlier this week, which resonated with Penn State football players.
Does situation determine everything in football? The guys debate the merits of her comments and then give examples of both positive and negative situations that affected Penn State players last season. T-Fank cautions about applying this thought liberally to football for an important reason.
Finally, they look at the players that are participants in the 2022 Senior Bowl as of recording. While more are still expected to come, T-Frank and Nate discuss which players have the most to gain from their participation in the week of practices, culminating in the Senior Bowl game on February 5th.
