Tyler Warren surpassing Ted Kwalick, Kyle Brady, Mike Gesicki, Pat Freiermuth, etc., as Penn State's greatest all-time TE?
Tyler Warren surpassing Ted Kwalick as Penn State's greatest all-time TE?

I think it's Brady or Warren--the rest of the year determines that--great list though
Amazing game. 17 catches for 224 yards. New ran for 4 and passed for 9
I believe so. Better than Gesicki and Muth for sure. Neither of those two could/wanted to block. Warren can do it all
Freiermuth was on par with Warren as a blocker IMO
The only negative about Warren today was he did miss a couple blocks but when you have 17 catches for 219 I couldn't care less if you miss a couple blocks.
I’m 57 years old and saw my first PSU game in 1975, so I’ve watched a lot of great players. Curt Warner is my all time favorite PSU player, but Warren is rapidly approaching him as my all time favorite, He simply is the epitome of a football player in every respect.
Brady played in a very different era. There was a reason he was a top 10 pick in the NFL draft--and, no, not just because the Jets are dumb lol
I can see an argument for either. Warren's special but so was Kyle
For my money, Tyler is the greatest in our history. No disrespect to the other guys you mentioned above -- they were wonderful players -- but I never saw a single bigger game performance from any of them than today's from Warren. And totally clutch as well. There was so much on the line today.
At this point in his college career he is without a doubt PSU's best. Hopefully, it carries thru to the NFL.
Kwalick had a pretty good pro career.
That may be the greatest performance by a PSU player ever. LJ in the first half of the MSU game, but that game was meaningless against a terrible team. Curt Warner at Nebraska in 81’ going for over 200 at Lincoln. Barkley at Iowa in 2017 is up there. Lavar against Purdue in 99’.
Brady was an excellent blocker who could catch very well. He was a weapon on a team loaded with weapons.
Warren is an excellent receiver who can block. He is the #1 receiving option on this team currently.
Warren's reception acumen is special, but good luck separating the 2.

Stand corrected college hof. Post corrected.
He played excellent ! It's great to have an offensive coordinator creative enough and willing to focus on TE.
17 catches today is tied for college football record . There is no negative whatsoever
Warren is the best PSU TE that I’ve seen and I’ve been watching since 1967. PSU has had a lot of really good and a few great TEs during that time. Warren is a beast and has Andy Reid drooling.
Pretty sure every NFL scout was drooling over Warren and Allar today
The most amazing performance I've ever witnessed, and I'm 61. Tyler Warren just gave the greatest performance of any PSU player in its history.
One of the greatest individual performances in PSU football history.
Props to AK for coming in and quickly recognizing in one offseason that Warren is the best player on offense and scheming the entire offense around him.
For real. He is dominating defenses like I can’t remember from a TE in college.
Totally agree, and I am super impressed with Warren's versatility and ability to step up in the clutch. But also nervous about putting so much on one player....if for some reason we would lose him. Hard to believe DC's haven't been able to scheme to shut him down or at least contain him a bit, but with Coach K's creative approach.....maybe they can't keep up
And caught a ball after he hiked it to the QB. Never in all my days and in about 6 months I'll be 77. I've seen a lot of football, but I never saw that before. From now on I'm calling coach K the magician.
He has 6 more weeks like this he will be. Right now he just doesn't have the stats to win it as a TE. Boise State's RB will probably literally run away with the award just based on numbers. Hunter getting hurt last night opens things up though
Boise State RB should win, Texas QB will be there, but they should consider Vanderebilt QB and Warren both being invited, if Warren keeps catching so many balls and Vandy wins a few more games......
It will be interesting to see how Coach K schemes to get Warren the ball in the next 6 games.
Funny how Buckeye fans were continually Poo-pooing the “lumbering” Warren magically getting open all game. It’s as if they totally missed the TE revolution in football the last 15 years or so. They may not run 4.4, but quality TEs can do so much for an offense and good ones get open because they manhandle smaller, quicker defenders.
“The Tyler Warren Experience”
Best quote of the game from an announcer and it certainly was.
Don’t know who’s the best of all time but this guy is pretty damn good.

Maybe psu can get in on the WR revolution and get the other three receivers involved.
I don't see Ewers. He missed too much time
Boise's back, Travis Hunter, Cam Ward if they keep winning and they should...then it's kind of open. Don't sleep on Navy's QB finishing in the top 5. 20 TDs no turnovers and they're undefeated.
