Report: Beau Pribula Visiting Another SEC School

Along with Missouri, Pribula has already visited Iowa— who Penn State plays next season— and UCF.

Zenitz also reported earlier this week that Pribula planned to visit Indiana— who Penn State also plays in 2025– but it’s not yet confirmed whether the Ole Miss visit changes things on that front.

Pribula grew up rooting for Penn State, having grown up in York. He became a fan favorite amongst Penn State fans over his three seasons. Although Pribula technically was a backup QB, he wasn’t a traditional QB2. Pribula appeared in each of Penn State’s first 13 games, used mainly as a runner. He ended the season with 242 yards and four touchdowns on 38 carries. Pribula only passed the ball 35 times but completed 26 of them, with his finest hour coming Oct. 26 at Wisconsin. 

Starting QB Drew Allar got hurt late in the first half, and with Penn State down 10-7 at the break, somebody needed to step up.

On defense, that guy was Jaylen Reed, whose Pick 6 gave Penn State a lead it wouldn’t lose.

On offense, Pribula was the guy. He went 11-for-13 for 98 yards and a touchdown. The next week, Allar was fine and Pribula went back into his Swiss Army Knife role. But for the second half of that Madison night, Pribula was the man for Penn State. If Pribula wasn’t sharp, who knows if Penn State beats Wisconsin? If Penn State doesn’t beat Wisconsin, it isn’t in the College Football Playoff.

So that’s something to think about, no?

BEAU VS. OLE MISS

Pribula once played against Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss.

In the Peach Bowl last season— which Penn State lost, 38-25– Pribula completed a 48-yard pass to Nicholas Singleton.

Now, he may be joining Kiffin and company.

Penn State has its first-ever College Football Playoff game scheduled for noon Saturday, Dec. 21 against SMU at Beaver Stadium. The game will be broadcast on TBT and HBO Max.
