47 weeks 2 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 25 min 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 2 hours 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 1 hour 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.
