Trebor Pena transferring to PSU

[JoeSU]

I don’t see that in the game cast on ESPN.
Looks like Ross fumbled for PSU at the end of the third Quarter.

I think you may be right. It was #5, who the announcer incorrectly said was Pena.

 

[ImperialOrange]

You got evidence for that? Fran pitched a fit for Pena questioning Collins, and there was all that emphasis about Collins was #1.

Exactly what PAcuse said so no point in my retyping it. This is all common knowledge to anyone that pays any modicum of attention. You obviously as a board icon, of all people, pay some of the most attention so either you missed that news or simply forgot.

The only real conjecture is if Pena made more or less money by leaving. The tea leaves from around here have been he was set to make 800k at Cuse and once he was told to leave the bidding war he expected never transpired and he ended up taking much less.

Now on the surface this is a dice roll IE take less now and go to a program which were a preseason playoff favorite and had a pre season Heisman candidate QB. HOWEVER, it doesn't take much research to realize Franklin can't coach his way out of a paper bag and Allar is dogshizz inside said flaming paper bag.

What I've not seen is if Pena had any other P4 offers that he rebuffed to goto Penn State. He's a "nice" role player but his film shows him as a system guy with a lowish athletic ceiling.

McCord and Fran made him matter... without either he now plays on a team with the same 3-3 record he "avoided" and has 20 catches for 202 yards and 1 TD through 6 games and has been invisible against defenses with a pulse. Sucks to not be the 4th option with an elite QB throwing to him like was the case last year. OG, LA, Meeks, McCord, Fran and Nixon made Pena matter... without the prior 4 as an option he bounced on the latter 2 and got found out really quickly

You make decisions based on the facts in front of you at the time. What’s he supposed to be, Kreskin?

Bunch of clowns dogging a perfectly rational career decision.

You're right, but it's also why the sport kinda sucks in that way. You're always a free agent. Hey coach who's playing QB? Well he's terrible so I'm leaving. I could stay and help make it better, but I've got a business decision to make. Because I'm in college.

There's no fix in sight, so this is what we have to live with. I can't complain about bloated coach salaries anymore, who would want to deal with this without cashing in?

It’s worse than that…… I believe Peña was the punt returner who muffed the kick late in the 4th Qtr., deep in PSU territory, which lead to the winning NW score.

It wasn’t Pena, but they showed Pena back to return and then there was a stoppage in play and must have swapped out the return guy during that timeout.

Fran told every QB coming in this year we where getting 2 QBs in the portal.
Angeli was floated last year but we got McCord.
Pena left because he asked for more money after agreeing to a deal in December for more money.
Fran told him to back his bags.

So much false narrative floating around.
I highly doubt Fran did not tell EVERYONE what the QB plan was, that's how he kept OG last year.
Some you act like Fran is asleep at the wheel...

False narrative?, it’s the story Brown told.

 

[PAcuse]

False narrative?, it’s the story Brown told.

I'm assuming you mean the money part or are you talking about the QB part?
The QB was verified by multiple people.
Sure they money thing is what Fran said but what purpose does it serve him out of all the things he has said to lie about this?

Alot of people on this site even said Collins was brought in as a backup last fall and other qb would be brought in.

Trevor still made the right choice to yall?

 

[JustPherU]

Trevor still made the right choice to yall?

Only he knows that.

 

[Newhouser]

If we were paying a slot receiver with one good year on his resume, and never being above a third option, 800k we should be sending Perv St thank you notes.

 

[Cusefan95]

Impossible to say with certainty. Butterfly effect on Angeli if Pena played for SU?

Butterfly effect cuts both ways. Maybe if he stayed, Penn State is 6-0 with Allar as a Heisman candidate, and he doesn’t mesh with Angeli and is in no better position as he is now.

Regardless, people still upset he left need to get over it. You sound like the guy still bitter after his girlfriend left him for another guy nine months ago. It’s a loser mentality - I have no idea why someone wants to look like a loser.

 

[Chip]

I hope you’re happy Trebor, you just cost a man his livelihood!

Ironically, Angeli helped too.

 

[kirbivore]

“Trevor Pena made the right decision “ yea right he is 3-3 now has to play with a backup qb and his draft stocks have tanked he will go undrafted now

I hope he does go undrafted

He turned into a money hungry pig he is reaping the benefits of it by tanking his draft stock and playing on a losing team.

How much more do we think he wanted and what did he get allegedly ?

What people and when. Just looked back through the Ricki Collins thread. Zero indication they were looking to add until after the spring game.
