Who would be your three starting PSU linebackers in the James Franklin era?

Mike Hull, Micah Parsons, Jason Cabinda, Cam Brown, Abdul Carter, Ellis Brooks, Brandon Smith, others?

Who would be your starting three?

So now you need Netflix to see any games scheduled for Christmas Day. Peacock for some Thursday games. ESPN only for some games.

Are there Amazon only games? Can’t keep up.

Refuse to keep up. Screw them all.

Spoke with a couple of sources this weekend and there's some talk that DJ McClary might end up "decommitting" as he supposedly didn't look good or test well at the recent Elite 11 / All-22 camp. This is far from a definite thing, but combine the testing along with the fact that he wants to visit other schools and Penn State set to host multiple linebacker targets over the next few weeks and this starts to make a lot of sense. Personally I'm a big fan of McClary and I think he has a high ceiling, so it will be interesting to see how this all plays out, but wanted you guys to know what we are hearing incase something does break soon.

Well, it was a good run.

Posted this on GIA, but @backdrft76 said I had to here as well. Be warned, the first three are Iowa centric:


U20 Nationals gives us a very recent example on what we could see this weekend. WTT are basically a condensed version with the best guys competing again(plus a few additions)for a spot on the team. 57kgs was a gauntlet then, and will be again.

Lilledahl came out on top at Nats, so he sits in the best of 3 finals. He earned himself a huge advantage here as the mini tourny is going to be a war, with highly ranked matches from 1st whistle.

Top competition -

Forrest - not best performance at Nats, but everyone knows he's one of the best there is
Knox - 3rd at Nats, top pfp
Mendoza - 4th at Nats, took out Forrest and Desmond in convincing fashion
Kilkeary - looked really, really good at Nats. Took 2nd with wins over Mendoza and Knox
Castillo - world medalist
Seidel, Desmond, and Cortez are all highly ranked and in the mix as well

Not sure how DeLuca will fare here. He's good enough to go with anyone on that list. Talent level is so high at this weight that I can't pick any one person to make the finals. I guess I will say 4th for Leo, and hope that I am very wrong. I lean Forrest to make finals, if only because when he is at his peak performance, very few can compete.

I have Lilledahl ultimately winning the spot. Partially because he's damn good, and partially because he doesn't have to string together 3-4 high quality wins to do it.

Cancer. 71. Damn

Need two for USC game on 12 October.

He died this morning, suddenly, cause has yet to be released. he won the PGA Sony Open in Hawaii earlier this year. Apparely had a drinking problem but recently got sober. Was ranked #58 in the world when he passed. he apparently plaid 16 holes at this week's event before pulling out after 16 holes citing illness.

It’s usually after 8 or 9pm, but the site just drags after that point and takes forever to load. I’ve noticed this over the last several weeks. I’ve never known it to be a problem before.

Steve Wiltfong at on3 predicted JaDon Blair to ND today. If that happens, makes Kainoa Winston all the more important.

So that we may be free.

Tip o the hat to @wcg207 as he posted this video on the Friday Jukebox thread.

It will be interesting to see how CU does this year. Can Shilo walk away from this award via bankruptcy?

@zzs006 Here's a head start for you -- a list of the likely competition for Zain and Spencer:

It's just a list with some credentials, but not an analysis of who the biggest obstacles will be. (Zain and Spencer might be the biggest obstacles to everyone else.)

Just saw Flo’s early rankings for this coming year. Looks like they guessing at some weights.

They have PSU at 135points (not including bonus). The next closest team was “transfer portal” at 59 points (I believe this is before Wyatt became official at OSU.

This is in weight order from 125 up to HWY. they have Kasak at 157 and Haines at 174

Davis #5 Figueroa #1
Nagao #7 Crookham #1
Beau #3 Alirez #1
Van Ness #2 Henson #1
Kasak #4 Teemer #1
MM #1
Haines #2 O’Toole #1
Barr #24 Keckeisen #1
Cstar #1
Kerk #1

We've been mediocre in baseball for as long as anyone can remember. How did this sneak up on us? Does this baseball coach know anything about football?

Link below. QBs are highest -- no surprise there -- with $500,000-800,000 on average but sometimes even north of that. OL and DL are roughly tied for second in cash value at $250,000-600,000.

For many of us who started following college football back in the 1960s, there's still a lot of culture shock associated with the new reality that has overtaken the game in just the last few years:
