Apparently this is gonna be a thing.
Twelve months after he absolutely electrified Penn State’s hesitant-to-change fanbase by simply catching up to speed with the rest of the sport, James Franklin has once again stepped foot in Transfer Portal – College Football’s bargain bin – and already crossed ‘WR1’ from his off-season shopping list.
Like most of Franklin’s 2020-2021 portal rescues, former Western Kentucky stat gobbler Mitchell Tinsley fits a certain profile. Recruiting stars deficient (Derrick Tangelo). Limited college offers out of high school (Eric Wilson). Late bloomer physically who outgrew his Outlet Mall irregular measurables from high school, sprouted into an impact overachiever at the college level, and is now eager to see if he can shine just as bright on a bigger stage (Arnold Ebiketie).
