“He’s a little heavy. He’s about 220,” Penn State coach Joe Paterno said about running back Evan Royster. "And I keep telling him that he’s not going to have the kind of endurance he needs unless he loses some weight." Paterno would like to see him around 213 pounds.

The Nittany Lions will be breaking in a new quarterback this fall, which means they'll need to lean on Royster this fall.  The problem is, if I know this sitting here on my couch, you can bet defensive coordinators are also aware of it.
