Agree, as soon as these guys start accepting money for play, they become professional athletes and not exempt from criticism. There is pain and disappointment in the real world… get use to it. Country has gone soft.

I would hope my employer would not feel the same way. I’m a supervisor and I don’t feel that way. I think we disagree about evaluating employee performance. I don’t think your standard is realistic. All or nothing standards are not realistic. They create a very bad environment. Nobody benefits.

My thoughts are as soon as NIL happened, Allar = Hurts = Daniel Jones. You take money, you get big press. And again, 15s driving his gt3 home from the airport in an hour, meeting up with his 10 of 10 gf at his roomy toftrees apt and pulling a line off her A, then playing a free 18 tomorrow and enjoying his free burger at after. His toughest moment at the turn will be deciding if he should attend afternoon classes Wednesday.
F his feelings, dudes an absolute pro.

Friday - Phillies lose
Saturday - PSU loses
Sunday night - do we get the trifecta with the Eagles? I hope not.

You omitted tonight’s Phillies game for a possible four-bagger.
There is nothing deceiving about the record. You play the schedule you have. I said 2008 ands 2009 were decent -2008 did they beat Michigan and OSU? YES and 1 point away from going undefeated in the regular season how about 2009? NO lost to OSU..... You know the darlings of the Big Ten since 500 BC
2008 and 2009 are only 2-3 years from his retirement
Yes Joe was on the decline but far from being a disaster his last 10 years as some on this bard seem to have selective memories about. 3 over 10 wins season in 10 years??? 2 really bad years in that stretch ?? yes nothing to write home about for sure.

Sunday Column: Explosive Plays? Offense Experiences Full Implosion While Seeing Huge Opportunity Go To Waste
The final drive was the hardest to watch. You could argue that any of the previous six second-half possessions by what passed for Penn State’s offense Saturday, which added up to — trigger warning — 36 yards in 25 plays, would have been the toughest to watch, as they collectively built on a...

Lol I started z Thursday night with Marshall losing 3-2 in the third in a football game!!!!
I always go down with the ship.Dammit bro, but u watching yes?
Almost win? I guess I watched a different bowl game that day that you did.
Hack got hurt in 2nd Q, Trace came in threw 2 TD - 0 ints, the final was 24-17, you did watch a different game.
He may be great 165 hours a week, but he’s never been “great” during an actual football game. Occasionally good…..great, never.
I can say one thing…I don’t care how much money my college kid is making…I am not taking his or her money nor am I allowing them to drive a Porsche….and its not the driving safety…it’s the image, precedent and entitlement that is not right..wait till you graduate then buy urself an exotic car…don’t drive around playing king..SMH
I imagine it’s more complicated with a financially-independent 19 year old pulling down $1M a year.
But you know what? That’s a lot of people on here. People who kept insisting that the on-field performance didn’t matter. Only the scoreboard did.
Those of us of us that knew better kept saying, “This offense isn’t cutting it. It doesn’t matter that they’re able to hang 30+ on Illinois, the way they’re playing isn’t going to get the job done when they run into a real opponent.”
“wHaT r U tALkiNg ‘bOuT, bRo? u dOn’T nO ****! LoL! sCorEboArD!”
And how’d that work out today? 1-10 against OSU in the Franklin era. Yurcich stumbles into the booth on yet another Saturday with no discernible offensive plan. No evidence that they even attempted to prepare for this game.
I’m convinced this is the status quo for this coaching staff. They’ll beat the 9-10 easy opponents they have each year, dump to their tough opponents, and be satisfied with never getting anything more than a decent bowl game.
Ohio State isn’t that good. An average offense would have prevailed today. We couldn’t even be average. Embarrassing.
It's been evident for some weeks now that we don't have much of a passing game. I was honestly hoping that as the weeks rolled by that it was getting better, even hoping- without conviction- that we were hiding something for this week. Well, not so much. I see too many problems to expect it to get better.
It's pretty clear that we have a championship level defense and pretty good special teams, but this offense isn't going to sniff the playoffs, nor should it.

The closest we ever got was to cut the lead to 7 points. We never led in the game. How is that almost winning?
And McCord had the ND game under his belt--away game in a hostile environment. But--Harrison is the real deal. That was the difference.
LOL, well most QB's in the country would not have beaten out Stroud so I wouldn't read to much into that. PSU would have taken McCord in a heartbeat.
When the idiotic extension he got runs out
Consider this scenario:
riley wears out his welcome at usc.
usc goes after Franklin.
Franklin gets a pay bump and extension to keep him here.
It could happen.
McCord was a 5 star recruit and I think the thought was he would come in and immediately compete for the job after Fields left. Stroud was still a bit of an unknown at that point. I have no doubt that PSU would have taken his commitment. Unfortunately, he thought PSU’s system at the time, which featured quite a bit of QB designed runs, wasn’t in his best interest.
When the idiotic extension he got runs out
That is 2031. And PSU owes him 8mm a year for every year left on his contract if they terminate him. Assuming nothing changes, with five years left on his contract he’d be owed $40mm. Thanks Sandy!
We might have won if Hack had gone out earlier.
Yet some of the geniuses in this board would have been calling for Stroud to be benched after a loss to Michigan. Those fans are much more forgiving to players and coaches on other teams.
Stroud was 31/48 for 349 yards and 2 TDs and 2 INTs vs Michigan last year. He wasn’t the issue.
But he still lost….would have been time for the backup QB, always the best QB on the team.
What a disaster she has been for PSU football!
