"OSU passes the looks test" Once a Suckeye always a Suckeye. I could give 2 sh-ts about anything that dude says.Fluke you Herbie.
I may have missed it, but no mention of Barkley????
@KirkHerbstreit:
"I called that Ohio State game. I saw that student section half empty by the time they got into the second half because their OWN PEOPLE didn't believe in James Franklin."
"Des, James Franklin is getting a lot of this (pats on the back), but before that Ohio State game he wasn't feeling any of that."
@DesmondHoward:
"Half the student section -- gone -- left the stadium. And now everyone's 'loving' Penn State."
"I think they have to go a long way of trying to erase the perception that followed them after the Jerry Sandusky child abuse scandal because when most people think of Penn State they think of that scandal and they think of Joe Paterno and what happened under his watch."
"They've always appeared to be holier than thou, especially with the 'Catholics vs Convicts.'"
Rece Davis: "You guys talk about half-empty student sections, but I'm going to talk about students camping out in tents, more than 150 of them, waiting more than 30 hours in the cold to get tickets to this game."
Kirk Herbstreit: "Yeah, when they're winning, yeah, they're showing up."
Desmond Howard: "Right, very interesting."
Regardless of who said it, I am looking forward to my son's on the scene reports from that section for the next 4 years!!

Dear God -- I hate Desmond Howard. I mean, I don't mean to judge but he might literally be the worst person you've created. What were you thinking? If you could kill Mushmouf, that would be so tight.
This is Herbie's 'out' when he bashes PSU for something else - 'Don't pass the looks test - BUT best student section in the country! See - I'm not a hater!'

I'd have to disagree--he left Columbus as he was thought to be too impartial around these parts. There are a lot of guys I'd get upset with for partiality before his name would come up.Herbie's happy again since OSU is the highest ranked B1G team. If 2017 produces a situation similar to last season you can bet Herb will be taking shots at the team which isn't OSU. "They don't pass the eye test." "Their student section sucks (even though I've said the opposite)." "Their uniforms are too plain." "I don't like their press box."
OK, so I made up the last two. The point is Herbie isn't the impartial professional broadcaster he pretends to be. He's in the bag for OSU no matter what he says.
That reminds me of something which strikes me as odd when I watch last year's game. You can always tell which players the announcers have a man crush on because they usually refer to the player by his first name. In last year's OSU game Fowler and Herbstriet usually referred to Barrett as "J.T." There was no other Barrett on the field and it's an easy name to pronounce. I never heard a reference to "Trace" or "Saquon". It's not just an OSU thing either. Most games done by Fowler/Herb usually include a man crush they refer to by the first name.That's odd because during last year's game Fowler pressed him on it and he couldn't admit he said so before. We had to endure "Ahia State this" and "Ahia State that" right up until we took the lead. He's unbearable when covering Ahia but I don't expect ESPN to do anything about it being the whores that they are.
Hey - I also dropped my son off at Penn State last week. We should connect. Potentially share rides, etc. Message me.
Hey, sorry, don't get on here as much as possible, so I missed this. I have no idea how to message folks on this site...I looked around, but struck out!
In short, you can't.
Basically, you have to be a Premium Ticket subscriber to be able to send a PM within Rivals. The only exception is that you can reply to a PM if one is sent to you by a PT subscriber.
To facilitate things, I'm going to send a PM to BostonNit and to you, and each of you can respond to it and work out ways to communicate outside of Rivals.
