We've Got Your "Seven Nation Army" Right Here.
Alright, I’ll fess up: My confidence was beginning to waver when PSU fell behind two sets to none, particularly when they gave up six straight points to blow a 22-19 lead in one of the sets. It’s a good thing the players are cold-blooded though and can’t feel feelings, as they dug deep and pulled [...]
One thing that’s become painfully obvious from watching the Fighting DeChellises so far is the lack of true post players that can defend and score down low. Andrew Jones is doing his damndest but his production has left more to be desired, not to mention he gets very little support from his fellow “forwards” who [...]
This just in: Penn State’s basketball team is in the process of signing an exclusive TV deal to have their games televised on TNT due to the fact that they know drama better than anyone else in college basketball. For a moment there, it seemed like us, the fans, were going to avoid the same [...]
Those of you with a deep-seeded hatred for all things Ohio State and Columbus-related might want to mellow down a bit, because the Fighting DeChellises have once again managed to go right into the Buckeyes’ backyard and poach another hidden-gem recruit in high school junior Trey Burke. That’s right, high school juniors and sophomores are [...]
Well, okay, I sorta did forget. Granted, I felt like something was missing when I finished my “Not-So-Deep Thoughts” post yesterday but I couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was. Then it hit me this morning, I forgot to welcome you aboard to one of the top recruiting classes in the nation right now. Did I [...]
EDITOR’S NOTE: I realize this is fairly old news as of now (Thursday). I meant to get this published sooner but had it sitting on the backburner the last couple of days. I apologize for the lack of timing. We now return to your regularly-scheduled blog post.
Okay, this is getting a little ridiculous…And I’m loving [...]
Well, that’s more like it! It’s nice to see an offensive line that can run-block and to see the coaches finally decide “Screw it, let’s allow Daryll to be Daryll.”
I’d also like to give a shout-out to Ron Zook’s coaching brilliance. Not attempting an onside kick with Illinois having just cut PSU’s lead to 18 [...]
It’s amazing what can transpire in less than a week. PSU’s 2010 recruiting class got a double-dose of defensive end goodness with commitments from 4-star players CJ Olaniyan and Dominique Easley
Here’s a few quality sentences on Olanyian per ESPN’s recruiting service
He is a productive defensive end. He displays a good get-off and is tough versus [...]
Leave it to another commitment from a 4-star recruit to awaken me from a boredom-induced stupor caused by last weekend’s uninspiring, sleep-walk of a victory over Syracuse.
Per Bob Lichtenfels at Scout.com, here’s a description of our latest prize, Zach Zwinak (with one of the best opening sentences ever for a recruit bio):
Zwinak runs and blocks [...]
“I went up there and felt at home,” he said at the press conference. “There is no place like Penn State.” “There’s no place like Penn State.” “There’s no place like Penn State.”
Those are the self-pleasuring words of PSU’s latest catch, Dakota Royer. Admittedly, I added on the last two sentences to the actual quote [...]
