Heard this morning on sports radio he is rumored to have thrown his hat into the Penn State ring.
If this has legs it could get interesting about the time we play them.

lots of coaches will want it. Big Ten is partnering with an investment firm to infuse cash into the conference. They have turned into a progressive bunch the last 5 years or so
To get the job, he has to win. More likely he runs it up on us than the team lays down
What he has already done at Mizzou is more than enough. If he is the front runner by the time of our game he will be more concerned about recruiting and portal prospects for Penn State and buying a house in Happy Valley than running up the score on us.Quote:

We've played one sec road game this season and lost by 23. You guys seem to trick yourselves into thinking we're good before every game. We're a 9.5 pt dog facing a lame duck coach this week. Missouri is much better than FloridaQuote:

Total yards - 456 to 293, mizzou
Rushing yards - 285 to -9, Mizzou
They're #1 in the sec (6th nationally) in rushing, and we're 15th in the sec (101st nationally) in rush defense. This is as bad a matchup for us as you can come up with. It's gonna be demoralizing how they run over us
I would think the majority of mid level program coaches would show interest in Penn State. It is one of the 5 best jobs in the Big 10. Also, the investment firm the BIG10 is partnering with is another motivating factor. Drinkowitz runs a really good offense and Penn State fans are tired of not having an OL or enough offensive creativity to beat OSU, Michigan and Oregon. I could see this possibly being a good fit for all parties.
Exactly. We are MILES better than last year but miles better still means we are a bottom half team in the league. It means we now can compete with the top half and pick off some wins against the bottom half but we still have a good ways to go. Mizzou is a top half of the league team. They have an incredible rushing attack and are pretty balanced. People are unfairly judging them on the game against Bama because they are still holding FSU against Bama.Quote:

We have to show we can be competent on offense in road games before I will ever pick us to win a road conference game.
Yeah, Mizzou looks alot better than us right now. We're staring 0-8 in the SEC again straight in the face. Could we grab a couple- like this one Sat? Sure. But we are just as likely to go winless again
Nothing quite like that MSU optimism...Quote:

You don't have to be at a traditional power or a traditional fertile recruiting ground. Transfers want to come play for programs that they can put up numbers and Lane has shown players can come there and do exactly that.Quote:

LOL!Quote:

No one on their boards is giving Lebby any props for what he has done in year two.
I say Kiffin is going to Florida bc it makes them squirm like jilted little school girls. It makes them wait with bated breath bc this could be the rumor that happens to be true.
Everyone should be telling any ole miss fan they know - Well you know Lane is probably going Florida - just to watch that look they get when they realize it could be true.
**** them.
Drink would be good. If they land anyone other than Rhule, Cig or Drink, boosters will likely be upset. Kiffen ain't leaving Oxford until his kid finishes HS.
A good start would be winning a sec game. We've lost 14 straight sec games and 1 of our last 18 sec games. Why would I think we're a good sec team?Quote:
