A big reason why Penn State had national title hopes was a crop of NFL-caliber talent coming back to Happy Valley. But we’ve seen what’s happened through five games. Penn State has dropped out of Big Ten and College Football Playoff contention while most of its top draft prospects have fallen short of or barely met individual expectations.
The key word there being “most.”
