Buried, that's funny.

Not our fault there are 4 teams in own division of the SEC that would win the Big12 or whatever yall are calling yourselves these days outright.

yeah we smacked that Big12 ass last night.

I don't call myself much of anything but Gunny. I'm pulling your chain because you've got it dangling out there in the wind for all to see. I guess you missed my post that I really could care less about grown men playing a child's game?

Yall got a coach yesterday. What do you think? I think it's a damned good hire given the circumstances.

I've actually heard a rumor that we might get PSU on the schedule in the next few years.

Don't know much of him but would rather they have hired someone from within. I think they were too scared with all that happened. This guy may be able to help them cheat though, since he came from the Patriots!

They HAD to hire someone completely unaffiliated with Penn St. No other option on that one.

Of course there was an option. WHY would any sane person hold an assistant coach responsible? Or a former player? I can see why they tried to distance themselves, in theory, but it wasn't necessary. They have quite a crop of coaches that worked there for quite some time, and a few of them had the experience to become the new coach.

The new guy HAD to be able to say I have no connection to Sandusky. Fair or not anyone remotely associated with that guy would have been ripe for negative recruiting, among other things.

Now the school can say " we are distancing ourselves from anyone associated with that guy."


If this guy doesn't work out, then the next time they go in house.

Besides , in house isn't always the best. Look at Arkansas, we went and got a coach that probably had never even been to the state of Arkansas before, let alone had any association with our program, we seem to be okay.

Yeah, and look at how great he's made Arkansas. Are they going to run back to the SWC/Big 12 now that the SEC's more than they can deal with, or what?

LOL is that really a flame attempt?

Nope. Just the facts.
