I'm looking for Robinson to be the backup Mike next season. He seems to has the athleticism to be a future star at Mike, although some believe he ends up at DE eventually......
Football GAMEDAY THREAD -- Penn State @ Maryland
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
I'd like to see him get some snaps up to his threshold before the season ends.
Best road game for Allar so far. Glad to see it. I don’t care how much Maryland sucks. We didn’t play down to the competition. He was on time and on target for the most part. Deep balls need work but positive development.
Robinson's already played in 2 games. He may have played today. It would be a surprise to me if the staff didn't get him the 4 game limit plus the bowl game. But he enrolled early last Winter coming off missing his senior H.S. season and should be ready to contribute going into 2024.

I'm pleased. But yes MD gave PSU the last 2 or 3 TD's and MD teams are proned to give up when they are behind. It is what it is. Glad that those that didn't watch the game will see the 51, but MD imploded. PSU won by 36, but did not dominate nearly like they did in the 31-zip win over Iowa. Best part of today's game was Allar's progress, as someone noted above, in a nice road win.

They were up by 14 points at the half and the only reason Maryland had seven at all was because of a stupid penalty on our part, it could’ve been 21 zero at the half. I call that domination.
Yep, nice first half. All teams benefit and get set back by penalties. Just part of the game. But PSU gave up a ton of passing yardage especially considering the MD OL was getting killed by the PSU rush. The PSU DB's had their moments but haven't played their best the last 2 games. And MD imploded. Very nice road win. A much better performance than vs IU. But the 51 was not totally earned as MD imploded in the 4th quarter, turning into a turnover machine. JMO.
But he always runs. Needs to have a balanced offense.
And afms get weaker when kids join the B2G? Didn’t know that.
I’d say that’s correct. But in my 40 years of watching Penn state football, of all the players that have seen significant time on the field , he is the worst I’ve witnessed. He’s that bad. It boggles the mind that he’s out there.
And yes I recognize he’s giving it his all and I’m sure he’s a great kid. But he just shouldn’t see the field
Yep, you don't know that. I don't know what "afms" are either. Everyone here seems to agree that bringing in Pribula just to run around with the ball isn't helping his development as a QB much. And it sure doesn't help the backup WR's and TE's that are in the game with him develop either.
But some QB's do look great in high school and really don't have B10 arms. So far that's what Pribula looks like to me. Hope he has a stronger arm than what he has shown so far. But yes it would be nice if he actually showed it in a game.
Wonderful.
He hasn't shown it at PSU. Until he does he sure won't look like a B10 QB that can win games for PSU.
Hell, he has barely thrown anything. Sorry he didn’t throw fifty yard bombs when the plays called are runs and dump offs and don’t allow it.
Should have said many on the board. You took this post personally? Or did not know where my comment came from?
No, I was simply explaining not everyone wanted Beau to play. Most of us that were complaining never indicated we wanted him to play. Allar needs to be the guy and the offense needs to be built around him. Using Beau is basically MY admitting he doesn't know what to do with Allar.
Today's game plan was much better though ignoring Beau. More downfield shots. Just has to stop worrying about keeping Singleton happy and pound Allen
Why are you "sorry" for him. Is he your son.
That's the whole point. He hasn't shown a B10 arm. So I'm not getting enthused about his ability to do so. Lots of runs to him called. Why? We don't know. But he hasn't shown the type of arm to win lots of games in the B10 and I'm not going to believe that he has until he does so. I don't have to agree with you. Got it?

And Levis never threw deep when he was put in. Just run, run, run. You saying he never had a B2G arm?
Levis did show a nice arm when he threw, which wasn't often. Which has nothing to do with Pribula. Levis is and was a big strong QB. Pribula is not.
A coach that doesn't make bad decisions every big game would help too. Took ten years but I'm done with Franklin. Every big game there are bizarre choices made. Going for 2 in the first half. Going for it on 4th down on your own side of the field with 4.25 to go in a 1 score game with a great defense. Heck he pretty much did the same thing against OSU. How about you learn something. Sorry rant over.
Many of the know-it-alls on here better get over to scUM Board, they're barely beating an awful MD team. MD just scored and it's 29-24.
