Two-Deep for PSU

I never noticed they had ISM as punt returner. Why do they never put him in or have two guys back there to mix it up.
 
Things I don’t fully understand / embrace:

Nixon is clearly ahead of Shulte. Why is he not the starter? Does he not know that spot? That’s questionable because I’ve seen him out there with Lattimore. Either way good to see Reiff back on there.

Same thing for Brents. Are we going to just sit him behind OJ all year because we are saying he’s a left corner? I do like DJ Johnson and what he’s doing but Penn State has a lot of speed so we might need the 4-2-5. Hopefully that includes Brents at corner and DJ at cash, time will tell.

Those are little nitpicky type things. Will be interesting to see if they shake things up on the offensive line.
 
You just blew my mind.

Could Stanley come back for a 5th year and only play 4 games? Could he grad transfer to another school and play only 4 games?
According to the depth chart, he still has a redshirt year available.
Stanley does have a redshirt available, he played a few snaps as a true freshman (which is a moot point since he’s out of eligibility now).

If the current rules that were in place today were there when he was a freshman he would be a redshirt junior right now.

Guffus to answer your question no you cannot use a redshirt after you’ve already used up your 4 years of eligibility.

I don’t have a problem with DJ at the corner, but it’s time for Brents to play. He was excellent last year and needs to be on the field as a nickel or cash. It’s the old your best 11 need to be on the field. It’s nitpicky, because the defense was excellent.
 
So, is Brents healthy but still not starting? Has Johnson really passed him or is Brents not healthy enough for 100% go? Same with Merriweather...?
