You’re the only one I’ve seen intimate that was why they hired him.
CMC intro presser. Things to know..
- Thread starter Catch1lion
- Start date
PSU is not a "corporation" - it's a NFP Public Higher Educational and Research Institution. Culture and Values are the foundation of such Institutions as clearly stated in PSU's Founding "Land Grant Institution" Charter clearly states. You're such a putz and loudmouth for somebody who doesn't know $h1t about PSU or it's Founding Charter. A State-Sponsored "Federal Land Grant" Institution of Higher Education is nothing like a for profit Fortune 500 Company moron - vastly different goals, objectives, values, culture, etc.... - so why don't you just STFU and stop trying to lecture us about stuff you know squat about.
Wrong you stupid mother @!#$%!
IOW, 100% of PSU's Head Coaches from1909 through JVP are in the College Football Hall Of Fame. Just laughable to claim that PSU had no real football tradition prior to JVP - utterly laughable and grossly incorrect.
Yea so they are ahead of most everyone on that. I’m sure they already had people identified.
CMC also talked about how he viewed his job and responsibilities.... and that those went well beyond just trying to win football games - that he viewed "winning" as a result, not an input... winning results from the proper process... a process that he teaches his kids they should bring to everything they do in life... that you should dedicate yourself via effort and determination to achieve your goals the right way... not to take shortcuts, but rather put the work in and trust the process.... Referenced that he teaches them to bring this winning attitude to everything they do in life and referenced that 90% of his ISU roster maintained a gpa of 3.0 or higher... and 60% of that group maintained a gpa of 3.5 or higher... said that culturally PSU has historically stood for the exact same values he does and this was a big part of his decision....
But I guess this doesn't matter because you say it doesn't - when did CMC empower you to start speaking for him and what values he believes are important to winning???
Corporations goal is to make money. PSU Footballs goal is to make money. Land Grant schit? FFS 409 bro lol
Well, they didn't. So there's that.
He was the most acceptable "name coach" they could entice with the $$. Nothing to do with his family genealogy, obviously.
they didnt, do you not understand that?
So State football corporate profits aren’t part of the budget? Do bosses predict football profits so they can disperse the profits around the company and do these bosses make plans to increase profits (stadium renovation)
What am I missing here?
The reasons 409 life/with honor/grad rates no longer matter are:
Our backup QB plays for Missouri
15 had one class this semester (remote)
15 drives a car $15k more expensive than me
Parking passes for big games are $1000
Opting out of bowl games (I agree with doing this)
Feels corporate

First time I listened to any of the sports podcasters, my wife recommended Josh Pate & Landon Tengwall

Of course Penn State was a good program throughout college football history. I'm not sure who thinks otherwise. Joe just took the program to another level.
PSU Football's goal is to "make money"??? No it isn't - your a laughable tool. PSU's athletics definitely wants to operate in a way where they are "self funding" and Football is the primary revenue generator, but that is not their sole or even "primary" goal. Beyond that you're such a moron, you don't seem to understand the difference between "revenues" and "profits"... using "making money" and "profits" interchangeably..... Non-Profit Public Universities are not structured anything like a "Corporation" (a private entity which is organized under "Corporate Law" which is a structure that limits liabilities accruing to the "Equity Holders" (i.e., Owners). PSU belongs to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (all of the citizens - just like a State Park). Corporations operate to generate PROFITS for the OWNERS. PSU does not. Both a Nonprofit Public University can generate "revenues", including tuition, just like a Corporation.... it has "Operating Expenses" just like a Corporation.... but it does not have "Profits" like a Corporation. An Institution like PSU (including it sub-entities) either operates at a surplus (self-funding) or at a deficit (Operating Expenses exceed Revenues). Given the size of PSU's Athletic Department and the increased expenses associated with NIL of all sports, not just football, it's doubtful that PSU or its Athletic Department Operate at breakeven, let alone a surplus.
In any event, you're full of crap that PSU's football program (or Athletics Department in general) was founded, and run "to make money" whatever an obtuse, ignorant, undefined and dipsh1t claim like this even means.
The good news is the recruiting g class has a 4 star average. That's pretty good.
And Pitt got zero 4 stars (ON3 rankings).The good news is the recruiting g class has a 4 star average. That's pretty good.
Football is the primary revenue generator.
so you’re saying I’m right
not their sole or even "primary" goal.
Ur so silly 409 man
there was a big part in the middle I couldn’t understand but I think the word profit is misused

My point was that Indiana and TT both successfully used the portal to significantly improve themselves, and it didn’t take 5 years.
And they are in the minority. Well over 100+ D1 teams. Half the teams have losing records each year.
Indiana might have the best coach. Indiana brought in 48 players that first year. We have 2 right now. In your mind we are the same????
Texas Tech had double the NIL money last year. We ponied up for next year but they can up the ante too. They have oil billionaires backing them.
Part of the problem is your plan is you round EVERYTHING up.
Correct. Having said that, the culture fit had to be a plus. From all accounts, the guy is authentic; a true ball coach.
He already said he’s not going to blow through that money this year just to fill up the roster. The roster may be a little thin in 2026 because he has his eyes on the future.
Where you come from, both geography and family, makes you the person you are.
My guess is the only jobs he would’ve have taken were PSU or OSU because of location.
When you’re trying to recruit talent into any leadership position, you use whatever advantages you have. If location is important to the candidate, then you stress that aspect.
Guys, obviously I understand PSU football is not a business. im just making fun of the furor over hiring a local boy. Is he good at solving 3rd and long, that’s what’s important. I haven’t read a single thing in this thread about his ability on 3rd and long.
so we fall in love with a local boy who kisses the jp ring, but he can’t solve 3rd and long and we spend another decade supporting another beat blue hens guy cause he’s from Levittown (or was that Franklin)
carry on, please add some x s and o s to this thread after you’re done talking pop pop s
