Didn’t realize his som was on the basketball team. Pretty cool.

Love the stories from practice with Joe and the other coaches

I liked how it gnaws at him with the opt-outs.

Thanks Ro. That was awesome. That’s when I was in school and my kids have no idea how good we were. And might not ever win again. Which sucks.

Defense stepped up at crunch time in those days-wish we could find a way to get back to that. What a player Shane was!

 

[psykim]

Great that he is still close to his former PSU teammates! what comraderie!

Important point. Makes you wonder how close the players are on recent PSU teams. How much brotherhood is there? It's a whole different "me" generation out there many times.

Joe used to talk about trust among his players. His best teams were those that players trusted each other to do their job.
