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
