This can't be true. I've been assured on this message board that our players no longer go to class because college football is a business. You can't have players go to class and a halfway competitive football program in this day and age!!!

I told you yesterday that PSU players, under Franklin, do attend class. I can attest to that. What you missed in the conversation was that from an NCAA perspective, the “student-athlete” model no longer exists.

You need a healthy mix of stupid and smart to be elite. We are way out of balance.
I remember going to Pattee back in the day to study for finals . Irv Pankey would be there religiously just riding the elevator and chatting it up. Seems like he had more ups than downs. But I would recommend it as your ritual for success.

Every time I go back for homecoming, there’s this guy saying “I wish I studied harder.”

Hmmm!🤔. Supply chain management. Masters in business. Football experience. Sounds like a good replacement for an Athletic Director!!
