Former Penn State football star (Mike Mauti) blasts Jay Paterno

Does Mauti even have a real job?
yes. he is a coach on a high school team near Harrisburg

what is Jay doing in football these days? Other than going to useless BOT meetings and sharing his great thoughts about psu
 
I'd rather they spend 50 million of football facilities than building a new field hockey stadium. How much is that going to make you? You don't understand ROI!
Actually, I do understand ROI. When you have a cash flow, negative profits, and recently built a huge debt you've got to stop spending. Since we sell out virtually every game, and the Big Ten just got new broadcast contracts it appears our revenues are close to the maximum. Do you understand ROI.

Apparently you don't understand as well as your think. You use ROI to see how well certain investments have performed compared to others. In this case, football is the best performing investment and you need to keep up with the competition, or your best investment may not continue to perform the same. The other investments should be met with more scrutiny, not football. Do you remember when Paterno said "You're gonna get better or you're gonna get worse, but you're not gonna stay the same. Which will it be?" You must have forgot that one too.

the posters who go down this road are just being selective and intellectually dishonest with it

when they want to shout something down or take shots at Franklin, it is based on the entire University's cash flow. When they think something should happen, then it is based on the athletic department's cash flow, or just the football program's alone. its very lame
