Penn State coach James Franklin defended backup quarterback Beau Pribula, who entered the transfer portal Monday and will leave the team before the College Football Playoff, saying "we got problems in college football" and that Pribula "should not be put in this position."
Franklin said the timing of the open transfer portal, which overlaps with CFP preparation and games and creates urgency for quarterbacks to make their transfer decisions, creates an untenable situation.
"The overlapping CFB playoff & transfer portal timeline has forced me into an impossible decision," Pribula, a redshirt sophomore who had a clear role in Penn State's offense behind starter Drew Allar, wrote Sunday on social media.
