Good for Jarvis.... did everything that was asked of him to change positions.
I hope that all those players that have worked hard and contributed to PSU football and feel it is in their best interest to transfer find a spot that allows them to continue their athletic and scholastic goals to the utmost.
We are seeing what two years of elite recruiting does to a good team. Kids want to play, not sit on the bench
Did he say he hates us? That’s what I want to hear.
So, the deal to have UMass play us in 2023 involved money and a player to be named later.
He earned his degree.
Pretty hard to criticize him. Classy farewell.

Yep, and still behind Brown, and Parsons, and other guys from last year, and maybe even a guy (Smith) coming in this year.
Oddly enough, the same number of kids play no matter what quality of recruiting takes place. But I suppose there will be fewer sitting on the bench since the numbers of those high-quality recruits coming in won't match the number of players leaving.
We will see high turnover going forward but more will be going to the NFL than transferring
The young men are far from has beens. Many are leaving with a PSU degree and playing more football before entering the working world.

Who said that? It’s competition between great athletes and players with more guys coming up behind them. The point of getting guys to graduate in 3.5 isn’t (at least in most cases) to keep them around for 5. Not a has-been but the staff needs to be sure everyone to get their shot at a shot. He had his time, a great experience, his degree and wants to play another year. Seems like he found a great opportunity.
PS. This “pool” is the dumbest idea the NCAA has ever implemented. It is the opposite of a team concept. Learn to meet your commitments in life, not walk away from them. It’s the same as a coach liftijng a scholarship of a poor player.
If only these gosh darn coaches knew how to meet their commitments in life.
Preparing them for the “real world” where companies will fire a loyal employee in a second if they can save money, and replace them with a younger one, and the best way to get promoted is to switch companies.
So you'd rather go back to the old way where players had to get their release, and likely get blocked from transferring?
Good for the young man. He accomplished his most important goal while attending Penn State, attaining his degree. I wish him nothing but the best in the future.
