STATE COLLEGE, Pa. -- Trace McSorley will start at quarterback for Penn State when the Nittany Lions open against Kent State on Sept 3.Coach James Franklin settled on the sophomore after McSorley battled redshirt freshman Tommy Stevens for the job through the spring and summer.Were excited what he brings to our offense, Franklin said Wednesday. I think the biggest thing is hes been the backup quarterback for two years. He has game experience and theres value in that. Youve been able to see it already, youre not projecting as much.McSorley will make his first career start at home against Kent State.Its a lot of weight off my shoulders, McSorley said. Over the whole offseason, Tommy and I were pushing each other. This team will be better because of how this competition went with us pushing each other.Both quarterbacks are strong runners, but McSorleys experience gave him the edge.His shiftiness was utilized in practice throughout his tenure as Christian Hackenbergs backup. He usually led the scout team against the top defense, offering a similar look to the opposing running quarterbacks Penn State would play.Although hes played sparingly on Saturdays in that time, McSorley saw meaningful snaps in Penn States bowl game in relief of an injured Hackenberg. Then, McSorley completed 14 of 17 passes for 142 yards and two touchdowns, ran seven times for 31 yards and nearly led a comeback against Georgia.Now, McSorley will try and turn around a unit thats ranked 105th and 114th in total offense the last two seasons. Hell do so in a spread-based offense designed for a mobile quarterback and led by new offensive coordinator Joe Moorhead.I think the best thing about the way he runs the ball is hes savvy, linebacker Jason Cabinda said. He sets up his cuts. You play a guy whos a statue in the pocket and you cover well, he gets sacked. Now we have another element. Not only do you have to worry about covering guys, but when that four or five seconds is up theres that option of scrambling, another aspect of the play you have to worry about.

Freddy Galvis Blue Jays Jersey . LOUIS -- The New Orleans Saints looked like a team playing out the string.Nick Kyrgios has confirmed he will not be representing Australia at the Olympic Games in Rio over comments made by the Australian Olympic Committee. Kyrgios joins compatriot Bernard Tomic in pulling out of the team after both players were placed on watch by AOC chef de mission Kitty Chiller over their behaviour.Tomic released a statement last month that he did not want to be considered for the team and Kyrgios, although he has been backed by Tennis Australia, added his name to the unavailable list on Friday. The 21-year-old has been at the centre of a number of incidents on court, frequently receiving warnings for swearing during matches, and he was given a suspended ban last year for making lewd comments about Stanislas Wawrinkas girlfriend. Kyrgios mad moments We take a look at the Australians previous run-ins It is with a heavy heart that I have had to make a decision not to compete at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Kyrgios said on his personal website.Coming to this decision has been a lengthy and difficult process, and I am extremely disappointed to have been put in this unfortunate position. Bernard Tomic also withdrew his name from consideration AOCs unfair and unjust treatment of me over the last four weeks, as well as the organizations crystal clear position on whether they want me to be a part of the Australian Olympic team, has solidified my final decision.ddddddddddddWhile I have received assurances from Tennis Australia that I will be nominated for the Olympic team, the AOC has chosen to publicly and privately disparage me.Not one member of the AOC has reached out to me, my family, my team, or representatives of Tennis Australia, asking for a meeting or the opportunity to discuss their concerns. Kyrgios has regularly made headlines for his hot-headed behaviour on court The AOCs unwarranted attacks on me demonstrate the organizations inability to understand the circumstances surrounding highly competitive sports.No tennis players have yet been officially nominated by Tennis Australia, and the International Tennis Federation is yet to inform countries which players are eligible - that announcement is expected on June 9.In a statement released on the AOCs official website, Chiller said: According to his website, Nick Kyrgios has made himself unavailable for selection on the 2016 Australian Olympic Team.At this point, Nick Kyrgios, or any other tennis athlete, has not been nominated for selection on the Australian Olympic Team. In regard to selection every athlete in contention is treated equally and fairly. We have no further comment on this issue. Also See: Djokovic reaches Paris semis Will Rafa return?
