Paterno did meet with the the individual who was the head of the University Police and told him what was going on, his name is Gary Schulz. Turns out that is wan't enough and his assumption was the the University would follow thorough with going to the Police and they failed. Again it was second...

With all the piling on going on here I feel like I should post some counterpoints, just for conversation sake. Being from Pennsylvania and having the local meia all over all of the unfortunate PSU situation and most of my friends being diehard PSU fans, I have a little different and closer view...

@TideRollsInPa So you're the jerk who got the license plate I applied for? The PA DMV wouldn't let me have ROLT1DE. And apparently ROLTYD was gone too! I ended up not bothering.

I guess I have a unique point of view for this discussion. Having grown up in Pittsburgh and attended college at BAMA, I've had a pretty good opportunity to see football at it's finest on both levels. Honestly to me as far as the product is concerned, it's a near wash. Whereas the college game...

NO. And we are better off for it. Especially since we've expanded BDS. There is no financial gain, or gain in stature playing in Birmingham. We have a wonderful on campus facility in Tuscaloosa, there is no need to go play games at that dump in Birmingham.

This is a funny statement for a guy who coaches a team that just went independent. Why did they go independent? For the money. It certainly wasn't for the preservation of the sanctity of the college athlete. So before he goes and casts stones at the SEC, he might want to look into the motives...

Re: Penn State game I've personally nver had any issues driving in and parking, you will deal with a bunch of traffic, but that is to be expected. There are several places that you can park and catch a shuttle to the stadium, I can't directly think of any off hand, but they are efficient too...

Re: Penn State game I'll be driving up from Pittsburgh, since I live here and all. And thankfully a bunch of friends from high school went to PSU so I'm tagging along with them. If anyone is coming to the western half of the state (Pittsburgh-Harrisburg) and needs any advice from a local, just...

Yep, Indiana County and Boro in PA were founded in 1803. Indiana became a state in 1816. Indiana PA is the birthplace of Jimmy Stewart. Useless facts I know, but I went to football camp there in the summers, and that stuff sort of sticks. Just listened to some of Cignetti's presser on a local...

Although the names seem odd, well, because they are, IUP as we locals call it is in the town of Indiana PA, which is located in Indiana county PA. So all in all it's not that weird of a name. It does drive my fiancee crazy though because she went to Indiana (the real one) and everyone around...

Actually, Pitt did hire a Black guy - Mike Haywood. They were subsequently forced to fire him, after he allegedly beat up on his kids mother. They have since hired Todd Graham, I'm not sure if they considered any minorities on the second go round.

Whoa, I'm no fan of what Cuban does in the sports arena, although at times he does have some good ideas. I don't know the quote either that you're looking for but, as far as the circles go around here in the 'Burgh he and his family are very highly regarded as stand up people. Furthermore I...

Re: Malzahn Accepts Vandy's Offer - Will be New Head Coach (Not Confirmed) Believe that Malzahn is looking for a new job and looking hard. Believe that if nothing better comes up he'll be at Vandy. Believe that he wants to parlay his success while he's hot and you can believe he's not gonna...

Re: Malzahn Accepts Vandy's Offer - Will be New Head Coach (Not Confirmed) That's just a rumor at the moment. Actually the origin of that rumor, an internet blog / board (imagine that!) retracted the story and statement. Stewart won't be there much longer, but I don't think he's leaving after...

Here you go: The Leaders division will feature Illinois, Indiana, Ohio State, Penn State, Purdue and Wisconsin. The Legends division will have Iowa, Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Nebraska and Northwestern. Indiana and Illinois in the leaders division, now that's comedy!
