Ouch. Penn State 2027 Recruiting Decline?

State Penn in my Top 3 most hated.

Deep Hatred really started many years ago when my friend’s in-laws , who are the nicest people, got pelted by PSU students with balloons full of Piss.

Right around the time Jerry Sandusky was roaming the sidelines and other parts of the facilities.

I hope they are never successful.
 
For sure, and Joe Pa’s tenure was such a different era. He achieved such reverence that even in down years, it was total trust and belief that he’d right the ship and his guidance was unquestioned. Ferentz is somewhat similar, while he hasn’t won natty’s he’s brought prominence to a program that isn’t in a recruiting hotbed and doesn’t have blue blood resources. I’m guessing there’s a significant portion of the fanbase that feels ‘comfortable’ with him because they can come into town, ride the train to the stadium and attend games and Kinnick is a hostile environment and a lot of wins happen. I don’t think most Iowa fans expect to win the Big10 now with the new joiners and a natty is not on the table. Probably a playoff every 4-5 years would keep them happy. It would keep most programs happy.

I don’t think PSU fans are going to be so ‘comfortable’! They want league champions and playoffs almost every year. I think it’s a different fan base.
Joe Paterno had 5 Undefeated, Untied Bowl Teams: 1968 (Orange), 1969 (Orange), 1973 (Orange), 1986 (Fiesta) and 1994 (Rose)! The only other SCHOOL with more is Alabama with 10. Ironically, I was at the game (@ Northwestern in 2001) when Paterno tied Bryant with his 323rd all-time win.

I don’t care and you shouldn’t either. Joe Pa shouldn’t be celebrated.
 
Love Chris Hassel mention that Campbell’s first media appearance since calling Ames a food desert is at the Quaker State Lube and Steak.

I lived in Western PA until I was in 8th grade, never a PSU fan though. One thing I will give them is that Quaker Steak and Lube has the best wings I have ever had. Everytime I go back to that area to visit friends or family I make it a point to go. Ive never been to the one in State College, but the original in Sharon, PA is great. While the name is odd, the food is great. With that being said F PSU.

Truth. Not sure if it’s still there but Council Bluffs has/had one right by the Hooters. Great wings there
