47 weeks 6 days ago	Everybody chill on the	Everybody chill on the non-4-5 star whining.  The coaches have the inside track on all these recruits and they wanted him - the kid would have blown way up down the line, and he obviously really wants to play for UM.  Great addition.
49 weeks 3 days ago	Don't take one persons word	Don't take one persons word for it - I saw it last night and really liked it.  It's got good sequel potential too.
49 weeks 4 days ago	Genesis - The lamb lies down	Genesis - The lamb lies down on Broadway, Duke, etc. Dire Straits - Making Movies The Engish Beat - Special Beat Service The B-52s - Good Stuff Green Day - American Idiot Yes - 90125
50 weeks 4 days ago	bowls suck	I don't know why anyone would want the bowls to persist with their forced ticket sales and 500K payouts to their execs.  They've abused their privelage and don't deserve a cut any longer.  Oh, but I forgot - they're charitable organizations - bullshit. Also - enough with the "sanctity of the regular season" crap - lamest excuse ever.  Right up there with pot being a gateway drug on the are-you-really-making-that-argument scale.  Someone please provide the rationale for that one (season). (sorry - responding to some the of the comments, not the OP)
1 year 23 weeks ago	THANK YOU!  Perfect	THANK YOU!  Perfect summation.  Enough with the panicked undertones - have some faith folks!
1 year 23 weeks ago	I think the coaches would	I think the coaches would make sure it is not an innocent miscommunication before halting their pursuit.
1 year 23 weeks ago	He's doing us a favor by	He's doing us a favor by giving us a glimpse of his character - good call (no brainer) for the coaches.  Choose athletic ability over character and you've got the 2010 OSU team.
1 year 24 weeks ago	I was completely and	I was completely and enthusiastically sold on Hoke after reading the many glowing accounts of respect from former players, coaches, and anyone else associated with him, together with his reputation as a top-notch recruiter and his turn-around track records,  He's outperformed my optimistic expectations. Criticism of Hoke's HC record was extremely shallow.  You take over bottom-dweller programs and your initial years are going to be losing records - it's the transformation.  Does that even need to be explained? I can't believe I'm still reading guarded optimism bullshit on this site - what more do you need to see?
1 year 27 weeks ago	Amen	It is mind-boggling that the board has not fired JoePa and McQueary.  How can they rationalize anything but this action in these emergency meetings they're holding?  They are continuing the inaction/cowardice that has resulted in this mess.  Letting him finish the season is a slap in the face of the victims. Delaney should step in, but I doubt he will because he's an ass. If Nebraska took a stand they would have my respect.  Someone in a position to do so needs to expose PSU on a national stage and bring about what the PSU board is too weak to do themselves.
1 year 27 weeks ago	Timing of this whole thing	Does anyone else find it just a little too convenient that this whole story, which people with knowledge must have known would end JoePa's career before the season ends (it will), happened to break a week after he breaks the record for career wins?
1 year 51 weeks ago	Need a playoff	Yeah, the BCS plays matchmaker for its bowl games - with a good dose of politics, like matching the only two NAQ teams against each other!  But imagine the top 8 (or better yet 16) teams in a seeded bracket, and the matchups that otherwise may never occur - and then there'd be the second round... Not trying to start a playoff discussion, but I can't believe how any real CF fan can not want to see a playoff (not to mention any coach or player).
2 years 4 weeks ago	No tears shed here	Personally, I wasn't too big on Zeke.  Just not a warm fuzzy over him.  Apparently the coaches liked him, but I watched the film close, and I thought Appleby looked much better. Good luck to him, but I think we'll do better.
