Penn State: Where 3-16 Is Celebrated

As Professor Farnsworth might say, “Good news, everyone.”
And just as in Futurama, this is of course followed by a horrible, terrible announcement.  Namely, that Ed DeChellis has, avoided the chopping block.  Kudos to David Jones on the scoop:
“Yes, Ed will continue to be our head …

Basketball team run out of Indianapolis, time for DeChellis to follow suit

Basketball team run out of Indianapolis, time for DeChellis to follow suit

I won’t even bother to finish watching the game. The effort by this team against the Golden Gophers is absolutely pathetic and demeaning to Penn State fans. As of writing this, the Gophers are up 62-36 with 7 minutes still left in the game. A …

The NIT End Game

Commence rant.
What’s there left to say. This wasn’t exactly the season many of us expected especially many of those students who turned Madison Square Garden into Beaver Stadium East last year. Talor Battle was returning and so were our hopes for a respectable basketball program. …

We Own Northwestern

After Penn State’s first win of the season, a win against these same Wildcats in Evanston a couple weeks ago, I had this to say:
This wasn’t a great performance by Penn State, by any means.  This game was played on the court exactly how it …

Well, that was almost fun

Say what you will about Penn State’s short-lived winning streak. Sure, it was against two of the teams in the Big Ten that aren’t going anywhere, and sure, it’s obviously far too little, and way too late to mean anything for this season.  But at …

Penn State 55 – Michigan 51

Its really quite amazing how deafening silence can be. Beating a team whose fans are still hoping for a shot at the Big Dance could do that. Doing it with just one prior conference win most certainly will.
With Zombie Nation blaring through the PA, the …

Even the losers get lucky sometimes.

This doesn’t change anything, Ed.
It took an 0-12 start to Big Ten play for you to change something up? To actually institute some real offense, to spread the wealth around, and move away from a gameplan that was, for intents and purposes, give the ball …

Further Proof that Ed Can Not Coach
February 15, 2010 – 4:10 pm | View Comments

It’s not uncommon for me, and for anyone watching Penn State basketball, to say that our entire offensive strategy is predicated on Talor Battle making a 28-foot jump shot. There’s no motion without the ball, no set plays, no posting up. And for proof, Eric, …

I’ll Let the Beastie Boys Recap This One:

It’s really one line in particular you should be paying attention to, in regards to this game:
“Oh my god, it’s a mirage, I’m telling y’all it’s sabotage.”
The mirage? Penn State’s one lead in this game, at 46-44 which lasted for all of 30 seconds.  After …
