PSU Media Day snippets

Written by Paul Zeise on .

Some quick hits from Ron Musselman who spent the day in Happy Valley:

Penn State held its annual media day today in University Park, and Coach Joe Paterno offered several updates regarding the Nittany Lions' preseason practice:

  • Three suspended players -- linebacker Navorro Bowman, defensive back Knowledge Timmons and tight end Andrew Quarless -- have been cleared to rejoin the team. "Timmons and Bowman right now have been practicing with us – as is Quarless – but he knows he has to get a certain grade," Paterno said.

  • Starting cornerback A.J. Wallace missed practice with a hamstring pull.

  • Backup guard Josh Marks is no longer with the team and offensive tackle Nerraw McCormack is not practicing. "He’s just not in the kind of physical condition I think he ought to be," Paterno said.

  • Paterno has awarded former walk-on receiver Graham Zug has been awarded a scholarship and Derek Moye, a redshirt freshman wide receiver from Rochester High School, is running with the second unit. He is one of the fastest players on the team.

  • Paterno said its too early to name a starting quarterback. However, Daryll Clark is expected to get the nod over Pat Devlin.
