Radio Joe: How Did Penn State go From Jahan Dotson to This?

After Penn State footballโ€™s season ending loss to Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl/College Football Playoff semifinal, ND cornerback Leonard Moore told a story.

Per Tyler Horka of On3Sports, more said that a Penn State receiver was talking trash to him throughout the game.

This isnโ€™t unusual.

Whatโ€™s unusual is that Penn State playedโ€” and almost wonโ€” a College Football Playoff game despite not one of its receivers having a reception.

“I let him hear it at the end. I told him he had zero catches,โ€ Moore said.

The most telling part about this is that we have no clue who Moore was talking about even with the โ€œzero catchesโ€ clue.

I went on the air with Cory Giger of Sports Central on 96.1 Hank FM in Altoona to discuss how Penn State went from churning out stars like Jahan Dotson to its currents receivers situation, and if that situation can be fixed with Marques Hagans in charge.
