    Has anyone heard this will Jack Ham's last season?

    On another retirement note, today is the official retirement day for both Bobby White and Brad "Spider" Caldwell. Great guys. They will be missed. Here's to much happiness for them both for many years to come!

    Has anyone heard this will Jack Ham's last season?

    Byers for PxP, right? Not color. If Jack and Steve are in fact leaving.... Goon... I know he is well-liked, but sometimes a little of him goes a long way for me. Of course, you never know what you might get from him in the late 3rd quarter of a 52-3 game vs. UMass. That sound bite might be...

    Landon Tengwall - entertaining interview with Brandon Noble

    Yes, he was (not sure he still will be?) part of "The Obligatory PSU Pregame Show". Landon wasn't part of that panel. The panel has been Noble, Mike The Mailman, Chris Buchignani (really good, imo, and a PSU football/athletics historian), and Kevin Horne. I'm not as familiar with Horne, but...

    2026 Stanley Cup Final: Vegas Golden Knights vs. Carolina Hurricanes

    This has been as entertaining and exciting as any Cup series I have ever paid attention to. Even casual fans can really appreciate the end-to-end skill and speed on display every minute. I'm a big Sean McDonaugh fan. Imo, great announcer for the Cup Series. He adds to the viewing experience for...

    Ex PSU player Justin Williams with Ziegler

    One key thing overlooked continues to be that Curley et.al. were convicted partly based on them not properly reporting the shower incident. However, Curley did report it to Jack R., a mandated reporter. Everyone accepts that as fact. In the Spanier trial, the subject of the Line Mtn. HS...

    Rise Above - Penn State Adaptive Athletics

    Yes indeed. A good friend of mine is involved behind the scenes with this effort, and has worked with Sue on other projects as well. After last year's event, I said to him, 'well, here's proof that if you want to raise a lot of money fast, get Sue and Dana and bunch of former players together...

    Letter to the Editor: Penn State’s Failed Experiment (The Curse of Joe Paterno)

    Not disagreeing, just considering how very, very close PSU came, undermanned to some extent in any given season vs the uppermost echelon, to beating Ohio State, Weaselrines, Oregon, and now Indiana last season. I think an argument could be made that the difference in those excruciating losses...

    Letter to the Editor: Penn State’s Failed Experiment (The Curse of Joe Paterno)

    hiring a coach who never won a single championship or qualified for a single playoff game while coaching in an inferior conference for a decade? Well, Cignetti shattered that mold. In this new era, the old resumes may not be the best resumes anymore. All TBD. Who among the realistically...

    Letter to the Editor: Penn State’s Failed Experiment (The Curse of Joe Paterno)

    I'm of the opinion that your OpEd in defense of Franklin would have been better presented had you started with the paragraph "When James Franklin took over...", and omitted the preamble about Paterno. The NIL/Xfer Portal era is in many ways a clean break from all that came before it...

    Seriously....do I have to do everything around here?....

    As the Senior HR guy for a number of smaller-to-mid-sized tech firms over my career, I always advised against testing for pot. My thought: We would probably lose 1/2 of the current Creative Dept., and maybe a few others as well, and hiring would become 10x more difficult. Handle problems...
