  1. As a final send off to 2023, Tom Allen contract at PSU is 3 years, starting at $1.5M first year it is reported. What a year for Tom Allen, just had to lose plenty to win. All he needed to cap it was great legal and accounting. 

    Anyone  know that song "Act Naturally" by Buck Owens and the Buckaroos?

  2. The Ohio Department of Education has announced that it will now recognize a sports officiating license issued by the #OHSAA as an Industry Recognized Credential, which can be counted as credit toward high school graduation requirements within the health career field.

    Tom Allen will have a much larger voice and subsequent impact at Penn State (one way or the other) as DC than Kevin Wilson did at Ohio State. Wilson was OC in name-only. Ryan Day has and continues to call plays at Ohio State and did so throughout Wilson's entire tenure.

    Expected Tom Allen to only go for a strong, hands on approach with what he decided on next. After all, he has the $. All he needed was his dream situation. Penn St D makes great sense. Good for him. And the $ as DC will be as Cousin Eddie said in Christmas Vacation, "something real nice."

  4. Pacers were gods to me as a young kid. Neto was at my house one time-he had to duck through doorways. McGinnis and Doc Erving were the stars of stars in the ABA, and the ABA had a lot of top players.

    Sounds like he coached with Nick Saban and verbalized the things Saban would have said in private when he was at MSU.

    Anyone question what Coach Smart (former Saban protege) said last year to his team about TCU. Was that more than hyperbole? Was that his actual core belief? The outcome resembled that.

    I was at a loss for words when it was suggested that he said that. I assumed maybe he said that to the media, which would have been bad. I don't see anything wrong with saying something like that to rev up the student body. 

    Great hire in my opinion. Reminds me of Brian Kelly how he's done well at every stop. Learning from Saban helps just a little too. He sounds like he knows what he's doing, not just a rah rah guy.
