PSU has been pretty good on defense the past few years but has struggled on offense. Is this about to switch?
The only seniors on PSU's offense are Dowrey, Gaia, Laurent, and Palmer and PSU has much higher rated OL prospects coming up behind these kids. The only junior I can imagine who whould consider leaving early for the NFL is Godwin and PSU is loaded at WR. I have to think that PSU will have a pretty good offense in 2017.
The defense loses Schwan at DE and Golden at DB but there are several highly recruited players behind them at their respective positions. The questions are at DT where we're not sure what we have this fall, but none of them graduate. If Givens isn't quite ready this fall he certainly should be ready by next fall. Linebacker has to replace Wartman & Bell. I sure hope Cabinda doesn't leave early. It will be very interesting to see how Bowen & Cooper develop this fall.
At this point it seems as though PSU could be getting stronger on offense while rebuilding on defense.
