Sorry slick, as much as you’re trying so you can take some kind of credit(as sad as that is) the whole swag thing is just plain childish, and not catching on

It’s interesting that you used the word “wrong” because PSU fans rallied around Paterno, lambasted the Freeh report, organized protests against NCAA sanctions, organized to elect trustees sympathetic to saint Joe,etc. They did not own it. Most PSU fans denied it and made excuses for it. See a little reminder from our Google Gemini AI memory cells:
“In summary, the polls consistently showed that even immediately after the scandal and his firing, public support for Paterno—particularly among Penn State alumni and a large segment of Pennsylvania residents—remained high or, at the very least, deeply conflicted.”


It’s not that these bad things happened, it’s the reaction to it happening. Your examples are confused. I’ve yet to hear a single Florida fan rally around Hernadez murdering probably three humans. Not one. Many have even been critical of Urban’s gentle handling of Hernandez while at Florida. Comparing Hernandez to PSU is poor logic. Tennessee fans never rallied around Cornbread paying players. There is still as much disdain for him and his actions even now with legal paying of players as there was then. And his crime was paying players, not facilitating horrific child abuse via inaction. Far too many PSU fans did what Joe and the administrators did—ignore and excuse it. They didn’t want to hear the truth. And for that, in my opinion, they have not atoned for their thoughts and actions which were wrong.

Vug Nico and his merry little band of advisors. I just read s story by a serious sports journalist suggesting Texas dump Manning and instead hire Nico.

Exactly.

I was thinking Penn State would adjust but nope just never did. Penn state is overrated but they have much better talent on that team than UCLA did. You’re coming in after a close loss at home as well you would think that team would have some pride. I know they had injuries but IDGAF that was a much better Penn state roster even with injuries than the dumpster fire UCLA is.

That was one thing Joe P was great at....half time adjustments.

Back in July, at Big 10 Media Days, UCLA Bruins quarterback Nico Iamaleava told reporters that he hopes to declare for the 2026 NFL Draft after the 2025 season.

“This is a year where I’m really trying to get out after,” said Iamaleava. “So, I’m gonna give my all to UCLA. And if I have the year I want, I want to get out.”

ESPN's Jordan Reid noted on Sunday that Iamaleava made multiple "impressive throws" against Penn State's "stingy" defense. Reid, though, thinks Iamaleava is currently in the day three conversation in regards to the 2026 NFL Draft.

I wonder where he heard that term before? Hopefully the kid learned his lesson about greed and bad decisions.
