  1. Serious question: how many of you recruits back out if/when sanctions come down in a few weeks? Zero. A couple of less scholarships and games on TV aren't going to matter. Seantrel Henderson disagrees
  2. Hitchcock canned. why now? why not 2 months ago?
  3. that team shot almost 50% from the field, i'd hardly regard them as chuckers. you'll have to define "chuckers" then. I took it to mean shooting a crap ton of 3's
  4. you mean chuckers like the Head/Williams/Brown team? :-"
  5. Penn State's highlights: 4* QB Robert Bolden 4* LB Khairi Fortt 4* LB Mike Hull 4* RB Silas Redd 4* ATH Alex Kenney 4* OL Thomas Ricketts 4* DE Dakota Royer
  6. no wonder.....shot selection is piss poor
  7. this is all coaching, folks
  8. Talor Battle is 6 feet, 170 lbs, and leads his team in minutes, points, assists and rebounds. While I hope he stays around next year, I don't blame him if he bails.
  9. Serious question: how many of you recruits back out if/when sanctions come down in a few weeks? They signed a LOI, can they still back out? I know under certain circumstances they can but I don't know specifics. Did they all sign? I heard some were going to verbally commit but wait to see what happened with the sanctions
  10. Penn State hanging around at ~10 down. I'm waiting for OSU to end this DePaul would lose to about 10 Chicago Public League teams. I'm so ashamed to be an alum
  11. Serious question: how many of you recruits back out if/when sanctions come down in a few weeks?
  12. Illinois/Iowa right after it will have the same. Big Ten could be very strong next year if guys like Turner et al don't bail for the NBA
  13. PSU @ OSU about to start. Neither team has a senior in their starting lineup. Don't see that too often
  14. local radio says with OSU losing out on the big 3 OL they were recruiting, that they may enter 2011 with only 9 O-Linemen. Yikes
  15. yeah, OSU lost all 3 OL they really wanted (assuming they lose the guy who's announcing at 5:30)
  16. i.e. NOT joe paterno, who doesn't even have a computer for crap's sake. I think he sends his announcements via carrier pigeon
  17. no way that happens. are you kidding? wow. Since that would be a three run homer, I guarantee that doesn't happen. Runner on 1st and 2 out, not runner on 1st and 2nd.
  18. Kalin Lucas just wrecked his ankle in the Wiscy game
  19. and they're doing a medley, some of which will be mimed to over a track.
  20. You'd lose. As a team the reds hit 8 points lower and had a OBP 14 points lower than the Cubs. The reds OPS was also well below the Cubs. The cubs also had better stats compared to the reds pitching. I just dont see the reds being as good as the Cubs, if only because Baker is their manager and he does not have a roided up player to make him look good.... Those are last year's stats. By that measure the Cubs must have won the division in 2009 because of their 2008 stats. The Cubs are on their way down, the Reds on their way up. They cross this year. You see no rebound from Soto or Soriano? You expect Ramirez to be hurt again? You don't think Byrd can outperform Bradley? On the flip side, you're expecting who to step up for the Reds? Bruce? An 80 year old Scott Rolen? I just don't see it

    good point. no one's been talking about football these last two weeks. they've been talking about the championship game, which is the most important game of the season. Trying to make people excited about the LEAST important game of the season at the same time is a losing strategy. What would happen if you put the MLB all star game between the LCS and WS?
  22. You're kidding, right? Wilson is the Voice of Reason of pro football
  23. Is it safe to say that if LeBron wins it all in Cleveland this year, that he's more likely to go to NYC? If the "winning a ring" monkey is off his back, wouldn't that give him more freedom to just play where he wants to hang out?
  24. I suppose you're right. The truth of the matter is that I've seen too many Top 10 classes come through Penn State and the team never seems to deliver on that potential. I'm jaded
