Offensive Genius Daboll Linked to Penn State Coaching Vacancy
13 Nov
Summary
- Daboll, former Giants coach, is a hot name for Penn State job
- Daboll has experience as Alabama OC and Patriots assistant
- Penn State needs a "splashy hire" to appease fans and boosters
As of November 13th, 2025, former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll has emerged as a leading candidate for the vacant Penn State head coaching position. Daboll, who was fired from the Giants just last week, is being touted as the perfect fit to take over the Nittany Lions program.
Daboll's impressive resume, which includes five Super Bowl wins as an assistant with the New England Patriots and a national championship as Alabama's offensive coordinator in 2017, has made him an attractive option for Penn State. Analysts believe his "offensive genius" and experience at both the college and professional levels make him an ideal choice to revive the Nittany Lions and satisfy the demanding fan base.
With James Franklin's successor yet to be named, the rumors surrounding Daboll have already started to gain traction. Pundits argue that Penn State needs a "splashy hire" to keep the boosters and fans happy, and Daboll's proven track record could be just the spark the program needs to regain its former glory.
