ALTOONA, Pa. -- Defensive line coach has long been one of the most prominent and productive spots on the Penn State staff, and the Nittany Lions lost a good one to the NFL on Monday.
John Scott Jr. is leaving Penn State to take a similar job with the Detroit Lions. The university confirmed the news Monday evening, with James Franklin issuing the following statement on social media:
"I would like to thank John for everything he has contributed to our program over the past three years," Franklin said.
