A highlight from the Pokes 52-34 win at Texas Tech last Saturday. Note who fills the hole and initiates contact with the Techster RB.
That would be #45!

Even Adolph Hitler thinks the Pokes were screwed! (Please be warned, the language in this video is a little salty!)
Fear and Loathing at Penn State University
by Mike on Nov.14, 2011, under Football
Seems that we are all loathing the revelations from Penn State University regarding the unrestrained acts of pedophilia committed by former Defensive Coordinator Jerry Sandusky.
Seems that GA, now coach, Mike McQuery feared for his job when he failed to intervene in the rape of a young boy by Sandusky in the PSU football team showers.
Seems that Head Football Coach Joe Paterno feared for the reputation of the PSU football program, or perhaps for his friend Sandusky, when he reported the matter to his “superiors” but did no follow-up, like calling the police.
Seems that Athletic Director Tim Curley and SVP for Finance and Business (CFO?) Gary Schultz feared for the reputation of the University when they did not report this matter to the authorities.
Seems that then Centre County district attorney Ray Gricar feared something when no charges were filed against Sandusky after investigators eavesdrop on two conversations between the mother of Victim 6 and Sandusky, and after one conversation, Sandusky asks for forgiveness, even telling the mother, “I wish I were dead.”
Did nobody fear for the young boys who were the victims of this predator, whom they allowed to continue unabated?

The gift comment is related to Brandon Weeden’s birthday this week. The rapier-like wit comes from his dad.

Caleb Commits to Oklahoma State!!
by Mike on Apr.21, 2009, under Football
We are pleased to confirm that Caleb has committed to Oklahoma State University and plans to become an OSU Cowboy beginning in January of 2010. We are very excited about the opportunity Caleb will have at OSU and we believe that OSU provides a very good fit for Caleb academically, athletically and socially – Go Pokes!!
This spring Caleb visited TCU (2x), Texas A&M (3x), Texas Tech, OSU (2x), OU (2x), Baylor (2x), Michigan and Notre Dame.
Thru the winding maze of schools at the top of his list – Arkansas (when it was his first offer), TCU, Texas Tech, OSU, then a late surge by Baylor, the final selection of OSU is a good choice for him. The combination of the very good rapport with the coaching staff, the amazing new football facilities (thanks to T. Boone Pickens), the friend (Jamie Blatnick) on the team, the beautiful campus and the small town atmosphere we believe will provide him the opportunity to excel.
We also wish to thank all the other schools and coaches we have engaged along this process, particularly Coaches Hoefer and Briles at Baylor, Coaches Sharp and Tademy at TCU, Coach Hopson at Michigan, Coach Alford at Notre Dame, Coaches Doll and Sherman at Texas A&M and Coach McNeill at Texas Tech. These men and all the other coaches and staff we have met along the way have been very positive and above board in every way.
