    OT Start spin machine : tommy Stevens transfers

    You do not have the slightest idea of what you are talking about! Who knows what Franklin said to Stevens. Who knows what Franklin meant. Stevens' problem is that he has not been healthy. How do you promise a starting job to someone with an injury history? Stevens' father overplayed his...

    Redshirt Pickett

    I am fairly sure that the 4 game rule is only available to this fall's incoming freshmen. I do not think it is retroactive to a player that was previously on the roster.

    What the App St game showed

    Except the BIG was 9-1 last year in bowl games. Best bowl record by far.

    "Overrated" Franklin coming to town

    Exposed? WVU was a big favorite against Tenn - Grier is a legit Heisman possibility. ND was favored at home over Michigan - You could argue that Shea Patterson was exposed as a QB with a lot of unjustified hype. Only Texas was a favorite that lost and here I would agree that their mental...

    Week 2 team

    Just a guess, but I think retire infers that the injured athlete retains his scholarship and can continue his education. Maybe comes to practice and helps out the coaches. Quit infers leaving the team, perhaps leaving school and doing something else with the immediate future.

    Texas A&M, are they delusional?

    If he wants to win another NC, he will stay at FSU. SEC west is brutal with Bama, Auburn, LSU being top tiered talent and Arkansas, Miss State and Mississippi all capable of getting you on a good day for them. Two crossover games into the SEC east. In the ACC, FSU has Clemson, Lousiville and...

    Mike Leach - Hilarious

    Where do you get that? It was Craig James' son and it was pretty well debunked that the kid was actually injured. Granted, Leach can get out there with some of his comments such as the 'fat little girlfriends' monologue, but he generally has a pretty good street knowledge version to most of...

    Does Penn State have a drug testing program?

    I agree. I meant to type Franklin/PSU. That incident is similar to the current Pitt suspensions where players are so selfish that they put their needs ahead of the team. Thus, PSU and Pitt have the same types of problems. For the record, I am a 68 year old PSU fan from Altoona who lived...

    Does Penn State have a drug testing program?

    With all due respect, Where is there any proof for either of your claims? Specifically, who does not respect James Franklin within the Big 10? Specifically, which 'many' players were processed out for academic or behavioral issues? The only recent player dismissed for behavioral/drug issues...

    Suspensions

    Agree with you. Although this is not as graphic as the Mississippi kid, Tunstall, smoking weed in the gas mask (which cost him millions), this just can not do anything but hurt a player who has this history, as the NFL takes weed use very seriously. It also may mean that Whitehead will need to...

    Update on the three amigos

    OK, Mark Emmert and Ed Ray are being personally sued by the Paterno family with the case just moving along in the court system. I can't imagine that they, especially Emmert, are just waiting to put their hand back into the lion's mouth the whole way down to the elbow! Have you not followed...

    Texas

    In current college recruiting, most of any class has been committed for several months leading up to signing date. Charlie Brown had several committed recruits, however, when things started to go south about the third game of the season and the firing rumors started, recruits began to de-commit...

    Narduzzi presser a must view and some takeaways.

    I don't think Givens was hurt - cramps. The players who got hurt were Evan Schwann and Torrance Brown.

    Derrick Green

    Pitt already has better running backs than Green.

    Dorsett Almost went to PSU

    This is a story that has morphed over time. Paterno was not recruiting Kelly as a LB. Paterno told Kelly that if things did not work out at QB, Kelly would probably be a pretty good LB. PSU recruited Blackledge and Hostetler at the same general time and Kelly had to understand there would be...

    Longhorn Network

    topdecktiger, certainly not suggesting that you are not correct, but what is the source for that statement? what did they make this first year if it was an amount less than 15M? thanks!

    OT: True Detective.....

    I watched it expecting to be disappointed after last year. However, was pleasantly surprised. I'm looking forward to episode two. TV gets out there compared to real life, but I did think Farrell hitting the father with the brass knuckles would not go without a complaint and both the father...

    Early Picks Pitt-Psu-Wvu!

    The PSU / MIchigan State game is at East Lansing. PSU has 7 home games, not 8.
