NO NEWS ON DEVLIN-CLARK BATTLE AT QB

Penn State released its latest depth chart on Aug. 25 and there was absolutely no insight into who will be the starting quarterback for Saturday’s opener. Senior Darryl Clark and sophomore Pat Devlin are both listed on the top line.

Head coach Joe Paterno may be waiting until his first teleconference on Aug. 26th to announce a decision, but that’s doubtful. The guess here is that he will take the suspense into the game in order to get an edge on Coastal Carolina … as absurd as that sounds. This is almost a certainty: both will play in the season’s first outing.

All of the other starting positions have apparently been settled, except at right cornerback, where Lydell Sargeant and A.J. Wallace are listed as even. There are no surprises in the other starting spots. The only noteworthy starters include Josh Hull at inside linebacker and Mickey Shuler at tight end (the talented but troubled Andrew Quarless is listed as the third stringer). – NEIL GEOGHEGAN.
