Now you're talking.Here’s another - but relatively recent (and for those who say I say nothing nice/good to say about Franklin) - since 2019, only two power five teams are better against the spread than Penn State - Oregon State and Kansas State. And Penn State is undefeated ATS since Oct 15, 2022.
And still having low graduation rates.Having players sit in front in the classroom.

Yes. We know. You’re going to take the negative approach to it. Every. Single. Time.
It is what it is no matter how loud you cheer.Yes. We know. You’re going to take the negative approach to it. Every. Single. Time.
Like I said. There are multiple angles to the statistics. You and a few others constantly choose the negative angle without ever acknowledging any other angle.It is what it is no matter how loud you cheer.
So what is the number?Like I said. There are multiple angles to the statistics. You and a few others constantly choose the negative angle without ever acknowledging any other angle.
Read the article. I’m not spoon feeding you.So what is the number?
Who cares? Graduation rates are so 1970s.So what is the number?
That’s a fair point.Who cares? Graduation rates are so 1970s.
These players are paid professionals,making tons of money. Who cares whether or not they graduate with some worthless sports science degree?
If Joe were the coach the discussion wouldn't change. It's about a flawed methodology and schools manipulating data to look good.Read the article. I’m not spoon feeding you.
If Joe was still the coach, the article I posted would be the only one being discussed here.
Maybe you should make your case in a letter to the PSU Athletic Department Spin Machine.Who cares? Graduation rates are so 1970s.

I don’t care. It’s BS for fools.Maybe you should make your case in a letter to the PSU Athletic Department Spin Machine.
PSU does, and always has, listed majors for most of the players on its official Athletic Department website. No enumeration of NIL comp, which is probably about as accurate as the numbers found on Celebrity Net Worth.I don’t care. It’s BS for fools.
BTW, can anyone tell me when the player profiles ceased to include the major of each player? It probably was long ago, but that just hit me looking at them. Now we see their NIL $, but that is all that matters today anyway.
No one actually cared back in the 70s, either. I'm glad the facade is gone.Who cares? Graduation rates are so 1970s.

We all know that this is what Midnighter was going for when he started the thread. There’s no point in denying it.
Better than my guess - I thought this was about Aretha Franklin, with all due "Respect".....I thought this thread was going to be about the great traditions from Ben Franklin so far...

Bifocals.
I thought this thread was going to be about the great traditions from Ben Franklin so far...
That actually started with Coach O'Brien during the 2012 season.Having the players sing the alma mater after the game.
Woah, Woah, Woah there. Maybe Tom is starting a new Franklin tradition: Six degrees of sux between Franklin and everything that is bad in all the sport of football....Wrong thread Tom. This is the b--ch and moan about Franklin thread. The Eagles thread is down further.

My mastiff (rip) was named buttercup rap name butternut. I don’t appreciate you disparaging her name. Thank you for your coopStop being so jaded; this thread was created to celebrate the cool traditions Franklin started as HC - plenty of threads to ***** and moan about Franklin and will be a ton more this season when the tourists return for football season. Buckle up buttercup.
Allowing me to enjoy about 9 wins per year. Also failing just enough so that I can come here and enjoy the agony of the "WE DESERVE BETTER" fanboys.
