Monday morning news broke that true freshman defensive end Ken Talley has entered the NCAA transfer portal. This news came seemingly out of nowhere, and was not the kind of Monday morning surprise anyone was hoping for.
Talley was the final member of Penn State’s highly touted 2022 recruiting class to enroll at campus this summer, but he had been taking part in fall camp. Talley came to Penn State as a four-star recruit Northeast High School in Pennsylvania.
In addition to the potential on field player the Nittany Lions are losing with Talley hitting the portal, they are also losing a potential locker room leader and future team captain.
