...just followed a bunch of PSU recruits on Twitter.  Hmmm.

IMO, for a school that is still crawling out from under a huge sex scandal to hire the guy who presided over the worst sex scandal in SEC history would be...an interesting choice.

It looks like this could be announced today.  Seems like a really odd pairing.

If it happens, I predicted it back on January 1 in this thread: http://volstothewall.com/board/index.php?topic=29712.0  I actually see it as a good fit, almost perfect, especially considering his strong Pennsylvania ties.  It's a noted program with high expectations, but not overly harsh or fanatical like many other places.  He could thrive there with good seasons punctuated by the occasional great season, and I think he can do that.  Plus, knowing some of the PSU fans I do, I think they will take to his "asshatery" pretty well.

Good call, TRO.  I didn't know about his Penn ties, actually.  Never read that much into him.
