    Nits, its a really fair question and I think you are going to get more opinion than answer. His high school lines him up on the edge a lot, based on the tape Tangwell was going over. The interesting thing about his tape. He is the biggest dude on the LOS and he was getting off the ball well...

    Never choke a chicken til its laid an egg, or something like that. At least that is what was said to me. BTW, I grew up on a farm, we just cut off their damn heads and had them for supper. The Mencl/Bourque thing seems pretty interesting to me.

    What gets interesting is if Mencl is developing true interest (most think he is going to quack like a duck). If PSU is becoming a real option for him, then Borque is a problem for him. PSU isn't losing by landing one of these two and with the NIL stuff. No way they can take both. The second...

    I dont know how much attention coaches pay to stars. We do know that Ceasar and Gleason were very early offers from when Franklin was here and that Smith wanted both of them. Being local, he had very good looks at them in camps a while ago. TFrank has rave reveiws for both and keeps saying...

    I don't get too hung up on how some coach goes about anything. These guys are in a results industry. If it wasn't, Franklin would have never been left go after a lot of 11 win seasons. Its another poster putting this out there "Campbell said the backbone to the program was recruiting and...

    I really dont care what he says, because every coach says what sounds good. Franklin said all kinds of things that sounded good. I bet you his philosphy is really to win games. If it wasn't he wouldn't have brought most of his ISU returning starters with him.

    In case you haven't noticed. Miami and Indiana just played in the national title game. Maimi doesn't recruit anywhere near the OSU/Bama/UGa level and IUs HS recruiting stinks even for 2026. The portal is the key. I have hard time following HS recruiting so much anymore, because half the kids...

    I share your concern. Im afraid we might not have any recruits come the next singing period. LOL JMO, we are getting more 4 star kids on campus in the next coming months than we've ever had in the past. We were never in on the number of midwest kids this staff is, and that only makes sense...

    This really is a great song

    Rarely get into something like this because its all a matter of opinion, but the blueman group live "The Current" is a banger (maybe more of a slow burn into a banger) that is way better than the Gavin Rossdale studio version.

    2025-26 PSU MBB Thread

    Rumor mill was Chambers said something inappropriate and it was directed at Sandy Barbour. The Bolton thing was just an excuse. Say what you want about Chambers. He was a bit of a hothead. When he left, pretty much the entire team was upset, and when he left PSU had a competitive B10 team...

    and if you pay attention to some others. Primary the guys on this site. He is a long way from committing to anyone. I think the only way he commits anywhere really quickly is if someone has sold him on reclassifying as a 2026 prospect. They say he is a really bright kid, but I don't know how...

    8th year of CFB

    I figure if you are a 26 year old man getting paid to throw around an 18 year old. You are just playing semi pro football.

    With Quinton Martin Jr. at RB and the O-line returning.....

    You really dont think coaches try to put the best players on the field. Becht is pretty much guaranteed to start. A lot of others probably know they are going to start, but I doubt any of them were guaranteed anything other than you will have to produce. If a depth chart looks good for a kid...

    With Quinton Martin Jr. at RB and the O-line returning.....

    I think both Peoples and Hanson knew when they came here they were competing with Martin for reps. Anymore two guys are going to get them and one guy isn't going to get many. Guys like Hanson and Peoples want a guarenteed starting spot. Go down to FCS, neither has shown that regarding big boy...
