Anybody leaving early for PSU?

[Sean Miller Fan]

Ohio State's whole team is leaving early. Besides Godwin, I haven't heard of anyone from PSU declaring. Either they don't have anyone else good enough or they are stupid to play for free.

As for Saquon Barkley, I truly believe RBs especially that are guaranteed high draft picks should sit out their true junior senior so not to risk injury. I know that wont happen but there is too much money on the table to risk playing 13 games for free. I would say this about any true junior who is a guaranteed high draft pick. Its just not worth the risk.

Who care?

Who care?

Well we do play them next year. Who leaves and who stays is quite relevant to us.

Uh yea, that's why I am asking. The winner of the Pitt/PSU game could have national title hopes. If we beat PSU and OKST and finish 11-1 (say we lose at VT but they finish 6-2), we are playing FSU or Clemson for a spot in the CFP. Heck, if we beat PSU and OKST, we might make the CFP if we go 11-2.

I'm planning to arrive for the game a couple of days early on 9/7 to take in the cow pastures and look for any remains from Joe's statue.

If you go early don't forget to take in the science labs

Sickles and Godwin as far as I know. Sickles was the PSU defensive MVP this year.

 

[JD1976]

Allen, Cabinda, Hamilton and Gesicki all are returning. Those four could have been drafted. Just Sickles and Godwin have declared.

 

[Delpanther]

Who cares what that scum is up to!

 

[BuffetParrothead]

Sickles and Godwin as far as I know. Sickles was the PSU defensive MVP this year.

Godwin is significant for the Nitters.
He's the receiver who hauled in the McSorley " Hail Mary & Joseph" passes all season long!

Hamilton is just as good if not better and they have a lot of talent at WR ready to step in.

 

[PhPanther1]

Why is the question limited to PSU?
Shouldn't it be expanded to our coastal division opponents too?

You da man Cap!

 

[sherepower]

Their Linebacker. Cabina is the most important player on both sides of the ball. Besides the running back and QB

 

[JoseLind13]

I'm planning to arrive for the game a couple of days early on 9/7 to take in the cow pastures and look for any remains from Joe's statue.

This is actually the context I was thinking when first reading the thread title... Haha.

Cabinda did not play in the Pitt game.

 

[9nationalchampionships]

Depending on how early you arrive, if you have the time check out the wax museum next to the stadium

 

[PantherDave724]

People are comparing McSorley to Johnny Manziel. I pray McSorleys career takes the exact same trajectory.

Either they don't have anyone else good enough or they are stupid to play for free.

Or maybe it's the fact that they had the youngest starting lineup in college football this year due to losing 12 starters to the NFL draft last year. Most of their best players are not draft eligible. Wait until next year.

That program is absolutely loaded, and they just keep 'em coming.

Did you just mention National Title hopes? Cmon man

 

[revampedpanthers]

PSU doesn't lose much this year. Next year is the year for them. If they lose more than 2 games it was a horrible year for them because they lose a ton of guys after next season. They won't have a RB anywhere close to Barkley. McSorley will return because he doesn't have NFL talent, but they will be hard pressed to put anywhere near the team on the field in 2018. Told a PSU buddy last year that 2017 was PSU's chance at a big season.

Losing Barkley will hurt them but the have been bringing in a lot of talent over the last few years and this past season and this coming season will only help them land more. They arent going away. Joepoop kicking the can was the best thing to happen to them
