Every player is different, and those two may have some similarities, but Becht is not anywhere near the pure runner that McSorley was.
What are your expectations for Rocco Becht this coming fall?
- Thread starter MtNittany
- Start date
Word in State College is he has a Pop-Tart arm. That is why he never got a look from ND.Does Becht have a pop-gun arm?
I've lowered my expectations of Rocco and this program to ground level zero, so my expectations have already been met.
I don't know many of the new player's names, don't feel inclined to learn them and don't know which former PSU players were retained from the 2025 roster.
In short, IDGAF about ISU East. If they do well, great. If they don't, that's on them.

Then why the F waste your time on a PSU message board?
Waning reminisces of something that was once great.
I don't expect you to understand. To do so would be far beyond your pay grade and mental faculties.

I understand it perfectly - you exhibit classic signs of major depressive disorder and use the message board as an outlet.
Does he have a brain?
Allar had a "cannon" of an arm but little functioning cerebral matter, especially under duress.

I expect Ethan Grunkmeyer toa much better college QB than him 2 years from now
Grunk was dumb enough to follow him...that's on himFranklin has ample time to ruin him.
McSorley 2.0? That’s big shoes to fill.
Do we have verifiable knowledge of what his compensation is? Because, it is SOP here to set expectations accordingly. This is professional football, therefore, any underperforming player should be subject to incessant ridicule. You are our guy.....until you disappoint us. We Are!
Rocco will play better than Trace did without Barkley
Becht appears to be slightly below McSorley as a passer and no where near him as a runner. He’s going to need a strong running game and strong defense or, we could be looking at a 7-8 win season. I think we should have kept Grunkemeyer.
We loved Joe...but....2026: Success With Honor and The Grand Experiment, above all.
Regime change at PSU is infrequent as compared to most programs. I think it's entirely possible that Coach Campbell looked at many issues....but the friendly schedule in particular, and felt that if he could just "hold serve," there was a genuine path to a 10 win season. So bringing in your veteran QB makes sense in the short term. Let's be honest, we need to recognize that short term is the shelf life of this new brand of football. Lot's less time spent of "install" and essentially a coach "on the field," makes sense to me.
My concern is more for 2027. Without a legit 2026 recruiting class, and 22 roster RSS/S...and add the likelihood that Rapp, Rojas and Donkah etc. declare....the roster is a revolving door again.
Without BGJ around to ruin players, I expect good this year.
How so? Grunk isn't a fit for Franklin. He bought into James doing what was best for James and not worrying about what was best for the player. Just like Allar was dumb and stayed. Loyalty is a flaw in situations like this. Hopefully Grunk leaves after a year. Best of luck to him.post
Unless I am mistaken Franklin’s QB coach went with him to VaTech. That would be the same QB coach who coached Grunk to better numbers and a higher rating than Becht (admittedly on a limited sample size) while playing against three of the best defenses in college football last year.
He was also responsible for Allar's regression.
What does Becht at Iowa State have to do with Grunk going to VA Tech? I also never said Grunk should have stayed here. Said he made a mistake following James
Those facts had nothing to do with the comment he was replying to. Never stated Grunk should have stayed here.
