Either way, thanks to Penn State’s young depth, the veterans in front of him and Nelson will have to fight for every rep this spring. He’ll likely fight for playing time at right guard this year and is also part of the conversation at center behind Nourzad. Even if he doesn’t play at that weight, he carries his body mass well and moves much better than most players his size. He arrived on campus at 335 pounds and has worked this offseason up to 352. It’s not enough to make definitive conclusions, but he didn’t play poorly, which is always the first step.īut Ioane stands out from the crowd in most situations. He recorded zero pressures on 16 pass-blocking snaps in 2022. Redshirt freshman Vega Ioane had a similar season last year, though his work mainly came in mop-up duty at the end of games.
JB Nelson played well in his redshirt season last year, giving up two pressures, according to PFF, when facing game action. Unlike years past, the group behind those two is deep and talented.
