How would James Franklin evaluate assistant David Corley and the WRs? Here’s what he said

UNIVERSITY PARK

James Franklin nodded Wednesday night after being asked about the frustration with the receiving corps — and his evaluation of receivers coach David Corley.

The head coach understood. This isn’t the season anyone expected from the wideouts. With 21 drops, the Nittany Lions have one of the worst catch rates in the Power Five.

“We all own some responsibility in it,” Franklin said. “There are some balls we can make better throws. There’s some catches — we can make more consistent catches, there’s no doubt about it. There’s some coaching, fundamentals and development that could be better.
