Found this while searching for a different article but thought it interesting. Written by a WVU beat writer but good discussion about college football.

Folks, I am desperate for information on a certain subject and I figure this forum could be a good place to ask because this forum should have people from across all of Pennsylvania.

Here in south-central PA, I'm convinced I'm seeing fewer fireflies aka lightning bugs with each passing year. For context, my area is rural, primarily agricultural. There are few things more pleasurable than sitting outside getting buzzed while watching fireflies. Tonight it's Glenmorangie La Santa on the rocks.

I want to know what the rest of you are seeing in either rural or suburban areas of Pennsylvania.

Tonight should be epic. Edmonton trying to win it after being down 3-0.

Game in Edmonton.

No Canadian team has won the Cup in 30 years!

Conner McDavid’s time to shine?

Place will be crazy!

Some minor changes this AM, as the Rivals network as a whole as made some upgrades to the site.

You’ll notice it’s all mostly cosmetic changes, with a new look front page, different fonts and new look Rivals logo. Also there’s a color change currently as well, but I believe there was a small mistake there as it was supposed to remain blue and not black. I’ll look into fixing that asap.

Curious on your guys thoughts? Also if you experience any issue at all, please email me asap so I can get that fixed for you.

How much NIL $$ does it take to get a top 10 QB from California to commit to PSU for 2026? I would think it had to be a major factor in his decision to go across the country and play in a non-warm football state for a team that has never made the playoff. Are we talking 100K, 250K, 500K or more? I have no idea how these things are playing out in the wild west of college football.

Yes its early* but Huhn not only is pumped about coming to Happy Valley but according to him, DA is ready to light it up in 2024!

A top notch QB and RB are a good way to start the '26 class.

PS *Seems like the last kid we signed from CA got homesick and left. So Distance can be a real spoiler....... But he's in love with his choice as of now, so thats a very promising start. And we do play former Pac12 teams so he'll likely get a chance to play back home.

Continuing to hear more Oregon chatter for Finney but still waiting back from sources with knowledge surrounding Oregon. Finney was always set to announce this week but the Oregon chatter coupled with him announcing he's ready to commit on X tonight makes me think the smoke has some fire. But I'm not here to BS you, this one is very much up in the air right now.

If he does pick Oregon tonight, things I imagine have had to change sometime in the last 24 hours. Penn State was seemingly in a very good spot as of last night the last time we asked around about things. Obviously he's coming off that Oregon official visit which wouldn't make things too surprising but the fact that the potential smoke is coming nearly 48 hours after official visits wrapped makes me lean towards Oregon with an NIL push here. I know one source familiar with his recruitment believes Oregon may very well be the pick tonight.

Stay tuned below.

They win 5-4 in OT of game 6 of the Calder Cup Finals to take home back to back titles, their 13th overall.

Let’s be realistic about this we’re largely getting second, & even third tier guys at this point.

Overall, with a few exceptions recruiting has been terrible this cycle!

I hope we do better next year in state cause we got out butts kicked this year. Any thoughts?

We should be hearing more good news this week, perhaps once. Twice is possible, even three times I think is very much possible.

With Ohio State #2 and Oregon #3. Michigan is #9.

Teams we play:

• tOSU #2
• USC #25
• WVU #35

B1G teams ranked but not on our schedule:

• Oregon #3
• Michigan #9
• Iowa #11
• Nebraska #33

I know Dylan mentioned this being close yesterday, but after discussions with sources he and I have officially logged our FutureCasts in favor of Penn State for Rivals250 cornerback Brandon Finney. Landing Finney would be a big get for the Nittany Lions as he has long been at the top of their cornerback board.
