Sounds pretty cool, if we can pull it off

I used to have a weekly thread that listed questions I wish the Press would ask during the Tuesday PC. I tire of the "please tell us about the development of Nick Tarburton as a Sr. Leader type questions. No better time to bring it back than a week after a loss So here we go:

On a quick side note: Do the Bama press always say hi to Saban and ask how he is doing? Also, could ass kissing Ben Jones please stop with the silly intro's every time. This is a Billion Dollar Business and our press acts like it is a weekend at Disney Land.

Anyway:

1. James, what is the reason that we seem to take no shots down field in our passing game. Is that a scheme issue or can our WR and QB not make that happen.
2. Is there a chance that Curtis Jacobs and Abdul Carter could get on the field at the same time?
3. Do your analytics really say to alternate a kicker for kick offs? Does #99 actually kick the ball in bounds at practice that you keep giving him a chance?

Is how James Franklin won at Vandy, with John Donovan as his OC nonetheless. I think about it once in a while, and its more wild than any of the 7 wonders imo.

English gives an overall recruiting update sharing he's setting an official with Penn State.

I just got an email that B1G+ is giving 50% off their annual school pass until 10/21 with coupon code PENNSTATE22. That makes it $40 for the full year, which is about the same as 4 months of the monthly school pass. So if you're planning on getting the PSU school pass of B1G+ for the wrestling season, you can just do it now and get 8 months fee.

Just make sure to turn auto-renew off.

Allar. This week. Starting.

Thoughts?

Selling 4 great seats to the Minnesota game in Section WF Row 24 (lower level 40 yard line). Asking $1,100 for the 4 tickets. Email abbyfrax@gmail.com.

Many of these appear to not require paid access, and have been floating around in the social media thread, but thought they may deserve their own thread.

Especially after the 40ish minutes of gold Carter dropped today. He's one of a kind, to be sure. Biggest takeaways:

• Plan is to wrestle through 2024, including winning gold at 74kg that year, then go to MMA (so maybe no 5th title).
• On Dake's arrival: Might as well bring Sidakov in too--it won't matter.
• He's still looking forward to a rematch w/ PJ Washington, and if it's off the mat, so be it.

A whole lot of other good stuff--like his talk about coach Casey, where he gets his confidence, and much more.

Also--very nice interviews with Aaron and Greg.

Penn State went on the road to Michigan after a bye week and was dominated on both sides of the ball by the Wolverines.

-- What happened on defense where Penn State couldn't adjust to slow down the run game of Michigan? Josh Taylor gives his thoughts on the showing by the Nittany Lions and what went wrong.

-- Is it time to think about Drew Allar at QB? Maybe Penn State should've started their more talented recruit at the beginning of the season like Michigan did.

Penn Hills with the lead, 28-27. Central Catholic has the ball on the PH 36 yd line, five seconds left. Throw short pass across the middle, caught at the 32. Clock shows zeros and PH starts to celebrate. Refs say timeout was called, put one second on clock. CC lines up to kick a game winning 49 yd field goal.

Kick is blocked! PH team and coaches rush the field in celebration!

But wait.......what’s that??? A lineman for CC picks up the ball along the far sidelines right on the 32 yard line and rumbles into the end zone! After a long discussion, refs rule that since the blocked kick didn’t cross the line of scrimmage it was a live ball.......TD counts......Central Catholic wins!

What a heartbreaker of a loss for PH. Huge win for CC. Don’t know what playoff implications the game had but one amazing finish!

All the other schools in the big ten hope both will stay at their respective schools for as long as possible

For those who need data to show how bad he's been this year.

I always followed recruiting closely and would get exited whenever we landed a top 4 star or a 5 star player. I don't pay attention to it anymore nor do I give a dam. I'am convinced that it doesn't matter for the simple reason that we have fraud for a coach. With him at the helm for the next six or seven years our program is doomed!

Here's the latest notes from Sean Williams of our Minnesota-Rivals site from the P.J. Fleck press conference as the Gophers head to Penn State this Saturday.

- Says Tanner Morgan is doing well. Felt great on Sunday morning. Was cleared to fly home with the team. He's under the medical care umbrella right now and it will be up to them if he can play on Saturday.

- On receivers: have to create separation, have to make plays that present themselves. Mentions Illinois was really good, the No. 1 defense in the country. Says they've got to overcome taking advantage of their own opportunities.

- On their own defensive performance: Says both him and Rossi didn't see a schematic issue. It was more seeing broken tackles and not being keyed into their details.

- Says Cole Kramer was at practice yesterday and hopes he'll be available for Penn State this week

- Says Zach Evans is back from surgery, had a great practice last week, and adds depth to the RB position

- Trey Potts was held out by the medical team last week as a precaution. Expects him to be available for Penn State

- On Quentin Redding: He's a walk-on freshman who has done everything we've asked him to do. Did a great job with his vision and breaking tackles on the 92-yard kickoff return. Thinks he'll have a bigger role on the team moving forward. Perfect role for him right now. May be one of the most popular guys on the team. He's earned everything that he's got

- On Penn State: They are really talented at every position. They are big, long, and physical. They have a lot experience. Have a lot of guys on the team in 2019 that are older. Their secondary is long and aggressive. Recruited a lot of those guys, so we know them personally. They have a lot of young tailbacks that are really talented. James Franklin does a great job there, has a ton of respect for him and what he's accomplished.

- Quin Carroll has solidified himself as the starting right tackle. Says every game he's getting better and better

- Says they are playing really good football teams right now, learning lessons as they are going through the season

- Going to turn their usual chaotic practice up a notch preparing for Saturday night's game at Penn State and their fans

- Says Tyler Nubin is a passionate player and makes them better. Plays with emotion, but doesn't get emotional. One of the best leaders on their team and one of the best players on their team

- Says he didn't think the hit on Morgan was intentional or malicious, was trying to punch the ball out. Bielema called him after he watched the film and apologized for the hit, Fleck said he didn't take any offense to it and that's part of football.
