Show notes
On the traditional National Signing Day, Penn State had an eventful day, securing four-star offensive lineman Chimney Onoh out of Maryland. This week, we've covered that extensively at Blue White Illustrated and on the YouTube channel. So instead, the BWI Daily focuses on what you want to discuss. Host Thomas Frank Carr and reporter Greg Pickel answer questions from fans of the show and discuss Penn State Wrestling's upcoming road dual meets against Ohio State and Indiana this weekend.

After giving Pickel a chance to share his quick thoughts on Onoh, T-Frank opens up the mailbag to see what's in the mind of Penn State fans. The first question this week deals with presumed starting quarterback Drew Allar. Will the staff focus on building up his running skills to operate the offense next season? Next, t-Frank and Pickel give their thoughts on how much Allar's legs will factor into the offense next season.
Similarly, a viewer wants to know what week of the season the new starting quarterback needs to be at full speed with the offense. Can he be ready out of the box against West Virginia? Pickel and T-Frank discuss the early Penn State schedule and the team's propensity for starting the season slow on offense.
However, T-Frank points out a fact about both young quarterbacks that should help them play above their second-year status.
Next, they discuss the offensive line. Just how good can this until be if fully healthy? Can they be a top five or ten unit in the country? T-Frank is still determining if he's ready to say that, but Pickel is bolder. They're discussing the potential of the offensive line with returning star Olu Fashanu at left tackle, Landon Tengwall at left guard, Hunter Nourzad at center, Saleem Worley at right guard, and Caedan Wallace at right tackle.
But will that be the lineup? The line's interior had a shaky season last year with extensive injuries and some struggles from Wormley at right guard. Next, they discuss the reality of what Penn State faces heading into the spring.
After discussing several other topics, they end the show with a preview of Penn State wrestling. The Nittany Lions have another top-five showdown, this time against Ohio State on the road. Pickel recaps the win over Iowa and previews the most exciting bouts this weekend.
