  • Yeah, I can't believe there its this much of an asinine reaction from these people. I guess the culture that has been cultivated there over the past 40 years won't disappear overnight. Players upset for not being consulted in the process? Wtf would they be? Anywhere?

      No. Kobe Bryant didn't even get consulted when the Lakers hired Mike Brown.

        I think there main gripe is that they didn't hire someone who was connected to the pedophile enabler. They probably want them to hire JoPa Jr.

            I agree. I think with the hire from someone outside of the organization, many of the former players which had perks will most likely lose those advantages and they are upset with it. They are seeing the gravy train going away.

              • They should have gone after Munchak a little harder.

                • I doubt that they would be able land anyone of note right now. This is a total mercenary job. They need someone to fill the seat while everything blows over, and he wants his first head coaching failure so to build on.

                  • This seems like a necessary hire, but he'll be their RichRod. Michigan was dumb to hire RichRod knowing how important the boosters and former players find it that the HC is always a Michigan guy, and those parties were always there in the background, undermining everything he did.

                    The reason it was dumb, of course, is they didn't have to hire an outsider. PSU, on the other hand, did. So, O'Brien won't do well, but he'll allow them to get some distance from all this so that they can hire an insider in a few years when O'Brien inevitably crashes and burns. It's not a good situation, but this is a necessary step.

                      Penn State should never under any circumstances hire an insider or anyone who even has a remote connection to Joe Paterno. They will after they fire O'Brien, but they should not.

                        Fully agreed. So many in the community just don't understand the need to break from the past, and eventually they'll at least bring O'Brien down, and I would bet they get their wish for someone with some tie to Paterno. Hopefully when it happens it'll be someone who worked or played for him long ago and has some plausible deniability.

                            Just another Chris Petersen product honestly, Bryan Harsin isn't lighting it up as the OC in Texas.

                              One season is all the sample size needed.

                                Weren't their biggest producers this season true freshmen? No wonder the offense didn't produce.
