It’s been a while on the college football coaching carousel, but Penn State is no longer in a position to make a mid-January staff change.
On Sunday, Penn State wide receivers coach and offensive recruiting coordinator Taylor Stubblefield announced on Twitter that he would not return to the team for the 2023 season. Stubblefield thanked the school for the opportunity and called it a privilege to grow such a great wide receiver at Penn State.
From the sounds of it, Stubblefield has been rejected by the program. His tenure ended after three seasons in the role, during which he helped develop Jahan Dotson into the Big Ten’s leading receiver during the pandemic-shortened 2020 season.
Now the Nittany Lions are in the market for a new wide receivers coach and someone else who can contribute in a big way to their offensive recruiting.
Taylor Stubblefield was a star receiver in his own right at Purdue, earning All-Big Ten honors and becoming the Boilermakers’ all-time leader in catches.
After a brief professional career, Stubblefield began coaching wide receivers across the country. He coached Central Washington, Eastern Michigan, Illinois State, New Mexico, Utah, Air Force, Miami (FL) and the CFL’s Toronto Argonauts before joining Penn State in 2020.
Who Will Penn State Choose To Be Its Next Wide Receivers Coach? Will they go outside the organization or hire someone from within?
