  The spotlight has been on Penn State's offensive line since James Franklin arrived before the 2014 season. It remains there because the unit has been a problem area for long stretches. The play of the offensive line was a major issue last season, and Penn State will not go very far in the Big Ten this year if the group doesn't show marked improvement. Phil Trautwein, in his third season with the Nittany Lions, is the man charged with getting more (much more) out of the offensive line, and, Wednesday night, he offered thoughts on the line's progress early in camp.

Olu Fashanu is Penn State's new left tackle, and Trautwein believes he is the right man for the job. Fashanu takes over for Rasheed Walker at left tackle, and Fashanu's 2021 audition for the job, in the Outback Bowl loss to Arkansas, was solid. "I think those 15 practices were really key in the bowl game (prep) and (Fashanu) getting that (left tackle) spot since Rasheed wasn't in and him just kinda taking over and it built confidence," Trautwein said. "He's doing a heck of a job. Him and Caedan (Wallace) are probably two of the best tackles that I've coached." - Tribune Review
