"Crimson811, post: 1421200, member: 39610"]I wish. From a football standpoint, most PSU fans know that the ACC is a better fit.
Try posting that on BWI and see what happen to your own Postings?
We have more history with Pitt, Syracuse, Miami, VTech, etc. than we do with OSU, Michigan, MSU, or Wisconsin.
Yep, Paterno could not schedule Games when he wanted, select PSU Player's Father Refs he wanted, and had to accept losing to Michigan, OSU, Iowa, Wisconsin, more often without winning a NCS since 1980s. The Big Ten wouldn't let Paterno bully anyone and refused to vote his 1994 teams a share of the NCS, but did it for Michigan in 1998!
But from an academic (and financial) perspective, the Big Ten is where we belong (large, land-grant, research institutions with great academics).
Yep, and the Big Ten gained more by bringing in Penn State than Penn State did on Research Dollars after PSu joined.
And ultimately, academics and money are more important.
At Pitt ever since 1787 Academics was always a priority for young students and children always came before money! Don't think so for Penn State after 1966? According to BWI Posters it was always about Paterno that was more important even before Penn State University.
Joe first move as Head Coach was to break the Big Four 25 Limits Scholarship Rosters and recruited 35 more Redshirts every year to have bigger Roster than Pitt, Syracuse, and WVU part of the Big Four Agreement made in 1960.
Joe began operating secretly with non-compliance's and not being under Penn State Institutional Control and chose to be in Business with PSU Trustees in a Conflict in Interests to make money for himself and later employ his many family members and relatives?
If it was about Academics Penn State should have been following Big Ten Athletic Integrity Agreement, Have an Athletic Code of Conduct so Players treated as Students, be in Compliance with Title IX & Clery Criminal Act Reporting, and cooperating with Judicial Affairs and outside Law Enforcement Investigations?
Pitt was founded in 1787, Ten Days before the US Constitution was signed,and became Western University of Pennsylvania in 1819 and renamed the University of Pittsburgh in 1908.
Pitt was a University 36 years before the Farmer's High School of Pennsylvania in 1855, changed to Agricultural College of Pennsylvania in 1863, renamed Pennsylvania State College in 1874, and Pennsylvania State University in 1954.
Pitt was always about Academics 60+ years before Penn State was founded and much more in Top Research before Penn State became an University. Many Pitt Graduates taught, administer, helped Pennsylvania's first and sole Land Grant School evolve from the Farmer's High School to Agricultural College to Penn State College into Penn State University in 1954?
in a way, Pitt helped developed Penn State Academics and gave them a full share of all Football Games Money played at Pitt for 25 Straight Years when Penn State was designated the Home Team.
Pitt felt that was only fair every other year to that money to Penn State Athletics because it was hard to travel to Penn State and few to little Sports Media would want to go there to report on the Game. So, Pitt help build Penn State Athletics too, until Joseph Vincent Paterno ended the Historic Pitt-Penn State Games lying about the 25 years and being petty about coming to Pitt and helping Pitt earn Money too?
See we share to learn on the Lair unlike being Banned on BWI Board!
