For anyone who hasn’t paid attention, let me give you a quick heads up: the Penn State defense is going to be NASTY this year. At all three levels, the Nittany Lions have a mix of talent, depth, and experience, including in the secondary. This is due in large part to Tariq Castro-Fields, who is poised to break out as a junior.
Tariq joined Penn State in the class of 2017, picking the Lions on national signing day over a bevy of P5 offers, including home team Maryland. Castro-Fields wasted no time finding the field, playing in 12 games as a true freshman.
