Matt Campbell is taking a patient approach with his rebuilt Penn State staff and roster

Campbell added 40 transfers and 11 early enrollees as Penn State installs new schemes and rebuilds after a 6-6 season.

  • Penn State football coach Matt Campbell is leading the Nittany Lions through final spring practices, installing baseline offensive and defensive schemes ahead of the upcoming season.
  • Following a 6-6 finish and the firing of former coach James Franklin last fall, the program initiated a refresh after a 12-year stretch of struggles against top opponents.
  • To execute this rebuild, Campbell assembled an all-new staff, including former Iowa State offensive coordinator Taylor Mouser, and added 40 transfers, with 24 following from Iowa State, including quarterback Rocco Becht.
  • Players have prioritized building chemistry with new teammates, bolstered by support from alumni like defensive coordinator Anton Lynn, as Campbell emphasized, "I do think aligning everybody, making sure we're slow and right, right now."
  • By the time Penn State finishes the $700 million stadium renovation before the season, the team expects to have a better idea of how the pieces fit together, marking the first step toward training camp.
