Penn State Football: LB Koa Farmer primed for big senior season

Known affectionately as “Linebacker U,” Penn State will enter the 2018 season with some question marks at that position. Departures have left some holes in the depth chart. Fortunately, a returning senior has a chance to step into a big role and be a leader as a linebacker.

Koa Farmer, who has floated around at different positions, is settled in at outside linebacker heading into his final season in the blue and white.

Farmer came to Penn State as a defensive back, but was later switched to linebacker at the start of the 2016 season in order to provide more depth.
