Wouldn’t it be great if there was a way to search for such an item??

Could you do that for me, Tor?

 

[JoePaMajorCFBrecord409Ws]

So wrong

Not wrong dippy. Singleton the far better blocker in pass-pro, better downfield receiver, better screen receiver, better bubble-pass long-handoff receiver, better outside runner and pretty much a wash between the tackles (Allen has a very bad habit of running east-west.... forever on off-tackle runs and dances in the hole on 1-3 and 2-4 hole runs. Singleton grades out far higher for the Pros - not even close.

MRob just laid down the gauntlet to Pat Kraft.

His speech was laughable.

I actually looked on Ebay but didn’t see any…lol

Wife #5 loves the Joe409 pin. Where would I find one to purchase?

You’re kidding

 

[Corner Room Breakfast]

Preach MRob Preach !!!

Wife #5? Shocking.

His speech was laughable.

His speech was typical of a player’s speech. The current players often want to keep an assistant…that’s how Miami kept Larry Coker and WVU kept Bill Stewart. Unfortunately it rarely works out well for the program long term.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

His speech was laughable.

As are you.

 

[Lil Nicky Scarfo]

Just admit guys, you miss the designed QB draws, LOL. Franklin was such a clown.

Don’t forget - designed not for a Michael Vick quick-twitch QB, rather someone with the foot speed of Joe Flacco

I did a little. I couldn't find it.

You be you. Apparently you didnt watch last year and the first nine games this year

There's still a chance we see Grunk lining up wide in the wildcat to start the 2nd half.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

that’s how Miami kept Larry Coker . Unfortunately it rarely works out well for the program long term.

Larry Coker won a Natty.

 

[WaffleShopper]

Terry is doing a good job, That said, it's a huge jump from position coach to HC and too much of a gamble. imo.

He wasn’t ready to be the head coach and if you asked him that he probably would have told you the same if he was being honest. However, he’s learning a ton right now and maybe by the end of next weekend he won’t be that bad of an option.

 

[Ludd]

Larry Coker won a Natty.

That’s why I said long term…the program then fell into a pit that they still haven’t dug out of. Unfortunately, Terry Smith would not be inheriting a NC roster like Coker did.

 

[LB99]

I actually looked on Ebay but didn’t see any…lol

I looked at multiple sites and could only find 409 pins. And they were sold out everywhere I saw them.

 

[trufan]

Quite simply, Terry replaced gimmicks with toughness.
I have missed this.

 

[Nittering Nabob]

There's still a chance we see Grunk lining up wide in the wildcat to start the 2nd half.

Tis true. During last week's game at MSU, Clifford was out throwing the ball during each and every time out.

There's a Clifford trick play in the midst.......this week or next??

 

[JoePaMajorCFBrecord409Ws]

As I said in a post weeks ago, Terry Smith is the low-risk choice - you can sign him as the new HC at a very modest amount relative to highest paid FBS Coaches, you could sign him to a middle-term contract that exposes you to no real buyout expense, he can get to work on stabilizing the 2026 Roster and recruits.... There is no downside with Terry - only upside. If he stuggles as HC - the situation has stabilized and you put your list together for best available candidates.

 

[LB99]

His speech was typical of a player’s speech. The current players often want to keep an assistant…that’s how Miami kept Larry Coker and WVU kept Bill Stewart. Unfortunately it rarely works out well for the program long term.

You are probably right, but Coker and Dabo won Nattys.

 

[cntblvitsbutter]

I think we can now safely conclude that crap offense with poor oline play, obsession with big plays, playing underperforming players was 90% JF.

 

[Tor_Eckman]

Could you do that for me, Tor?

I don’t know where to look.

I did a little. I couldn't find it.

[PAgeologist]

Wow. MRob saying players staying if Smith gets the job. He’s also advocating for it also. Do the recruits come back if Smith is named HC? He has been a key recruiter for PSU.

Terry is growing on me as well. Love his even demeanor. Much like Cael.

Can he get a top OC and DC? He was already an important recruiter. And he will get kids to play for the school.

The culture already seems to be changing.

 

[BobPSU92]

We’ve had the runs all night.

 

[SleepyLion]

Who is the backup QB?
Clifford might be it with the injuries to the others.

That’s not good with white pants…

[m.knox]

You can dismiss Coach Smith as next year's head coach all you like. He's given this squad an identity, and they are performing at the highest level all season.

I'm thrilled for him and this team.

That said, gotta win the damn game.

 

[PSUcup]

He says it, must be true.
