Other than howard, who else is out there? Any flip candidates? I know Rutgers actually got a couple good ones.

Any guesses as-to what the kickoff time at USC will be?

Funny, how they highlight Iowa Wrestling when they discuss rigorous training schedules.

I am not sure what Mount Rushmore he is on, but he should be on one somewhere.

I know it's early, are we in good shape with any of next year's top wr? Thnx

this guy is unreal. For those that don't know Block, as a club teaching pro, he qualified for the PGA Championship last year and was in contention until the last day. he nailed a hole-in-one while playing with Rory McIlroy on the last, or second to last day, of the PGA Championship (sealing his legendary status).

This really isn't a surprising choice.

No, not hatred of Dave Witvoet, but agreeing that this rendition of the National Anthem is easily on the anti Mt. Rushmore of Anthems:

Any chance we can flip him? Some talk about him coming to visit soon?

This is against the rules.

Hello everyone, welcome into Inside the Den, a little bit of a less formal version of our NitBits that we often do.

There's a bit of a recruiting lull currently with the dead period but don't worry, things will start picking back up soon. On top of that, the Big Ten Media Days are next week in Indianapolis and most importantly, College Football 25 is out, not sure how many gamers we have on the board, but I'm personally excited about that.

With that, let's get into it...

What is happening at WR?
So, many are asking what is going on at the wide receiver position for Penn State on the recruiting trail? The Nittany Lions last week lost a pair of recruitments, one with in-state target Lex Cyrus and the other being Taz Williams out of Texas.

When it comes to Lex Cyrus, it should be stated that that was not an NIL related loss. While I believe South Carolina offered a bigger NIL package than Penn State, from my understanding, it was pretty close from an NIL standpoint. If NIL played any sort of factor in his decision, it was a minimal one. Personally, I think that makes it a bit of a tougher loss for Penn State.

Apparently, AB popped for Adderall at U23s and needed a temporary waiver to compete at trials. Still not 100% sure he'll be cleared for the Olympics, though I suspect he will. He apparently has a script, but did not file paperwork properly (or something like that).

I've always thought it was weird that such a commonly prescribed drug without obvious performance enhancing capabilities is on the banned list. Why not ban coffee while we're at it? Would really suck if this keeps him out.

Just announced to cast, season starts tomorrow.

We are considered by some as a strong contender for the playoffs, yet snagging highly talented wr's continues to be a struggle. We have a top notch D. A 5 star QB who can throw the ball. Two top notch RBs. Outstanding TEs. OLmen that are regularly making the pros.

But talented WRs go elsewhere. Sure NIL is a factor, but yet not at other positions.

Im puzzled.

Absolute shit show before the game with crowd control and security. The South American Federation (CONMEBOl) getting most of the criticism, but planning the final for Miami probably not the best idea.

They probably avoided a true disaster - like Heysel or Hillsborough - by just letting the ticketless stream through to allow the crowd crush to dissipate. There are fans with tickets saying security won’t remove people clearly taking their seats. Security should be removing those people all game and throwing them in the cooler for the night at least.

Was away on vacation....has or when will something be announced about which game is going to be the White Out? Thanks!
