Speculate who could be Penn St's next coach if O'Brien is lured away
Slow day on the board so why not? Could be amoot discussion, but a fun one nonetheless. I'd be rooting hard for a Tom Bradley comeback. He'd be a good representative for the university, but him being there during the Sandusky days would be a hindrance. What about Munchak if he gets fired?

But people apparently love him... Though I think they are Bears, Packers, and Vikings fans...
December 30th, 2012 at 8:26 PM ^
Heard he's close with Drake, that might help recruiting
December 30th, 2012 at 10:38 PM ^
He will revolutionize college offenses with his new 9 receiver sets (plus QB and center). 83 scholarship receivers - defense and special teams will all be receivers too - just think how many picks the defense will have)
Too soon?
December 30th, 2012 at 11:47 PM ^
psu only has about 24 total scholarships in football

Al Golden...if it was a year or two down the road and miami got hit hard with their own sanctions
December 30th, 2012 at 9:36 PM ^
Al Golden will be coaching PSU sometime in the near future. If B.o.B. doesn't leave this year, he will most certainly be back in the NFL soon and the next head coach will have to be someone the alumni will stand behind. Golden is being played like a fiddle down in Miami by the AD and I can't see him liking his situation down there any better than what PSU will be offering over the next 5 years.
December 30th, 2012 at 9:49 PM ^
But the situation as far as talent goes is going to be dreadful in a year or two. Golden may be the coach someday, I just don't see it in the next 7-8 years. If Obrien leaves, I think PSU is going to have to hire someone older who has nothing to gain or lose, not really sure who though....Frank Solich?
December 31st, 2012 at 10:59 AM ^
Solich has a good thing going at OU. The fans love him and there aren't unrealistic expectations like there would be at Penn State, where it seems like a majority of people expect PSU to be able to go undefeated despite the sanctions. Given what happened to Solich in Nebraska, I don't see him ever wanting to to back to that sort of environment.

Jon Gruden, Tony Dungy, Bill Cowher, Bill Belichick.

Haven't you heard? Gruden is a virtual lock for [any school with an opening].

Go with Ki-Jana Carter or Blair Thomas. Maybe Anthony Morelli. Probably Urban Meyer.
December 30th, 2012 at 7:57 PM ^
Once Alan Branch is done playing football he could be Morelli's D-Line coach

Well played, my friend. I'm on the EL and bust out laughing from that one. Everybody is looking at me like I've gone nuts but totally worth it...

December 31st, 2012 at 2:49 AM ^
I'm really confused (fill me in if I missed something) as how this guy can get 5 upvotes for saying Borges but the guy a couple comments above can get a -1?
December 30th, 2012 at 7:58 PM ^
No, you're not the boss of me.

Someone with nothing to lose and a glutton for punishment. Someone who's always wanted real respect and never gotten it.
It's definitely Bob Stoops.
