Don't know how many ISU commits would follow Campbell. For one thing, ISU recruiting is all about stash and develop, and I imagine Campbell will want to target more guys who are ready to play in the portatl. Campbell is also not the kind of guy who is going to poach a bunch of incoming and current players. He's kinda of the anti-Lane Kiffin. Of anyone, I expect you might get our QB Rocco Becht who will be a 5th year senior and is the record holder for basically every statistical QB category in school history, including wins. He can be very erratic thought and some in our fanbase would probably welcome offloading him to you guys.
Who are the top 2 or 3 guys in your class? Do you think they could leave with Campbell?

For context of the Paterno dysfunction that still exists and harms the University, and forgive me if this was posted, every PSU fan should listen to Lavar here:

Been a constant theme. OB talked about it, JF had to fight it for years. Look at some of the stuff posted today.....they are like a pack of Chiuahuas always barking about it.
how did this impact JF?

Man, I just don't get the division and animosity in our fanbase. I dont see this in other schools fan bases. I have supported all our coaches over the years...going back to Rip Engle. I'm appreciative of all their contributions to Penn State. They all have done some great things during their tenures. Now I'm looking forward to the Campbell era. That doesn't mean that I can't still honor Rip, Joe, Bill and James for all their accomplishments and contributions. It just seems some fans take on this tribal mentality. Not sure why. We are all Penn Staters and we should be proud of our past, present and future.
Because the BOT is invested on Joe being the villain so they are not. Moved on, but PSU doesn’t want to change the narrative

Your question
He had to fight quite a few battles and talked about it publicly. OB had the same issues, but JF didn’t hide it. His talk of everyone buying in was a shot across some bows. This stuff has been discussed so much on the paywall side. Fighting g to compete in the money game, facilities, pay for assistants…..none of this is a secret. Some schools in the south and one state west back ther programs wholesale. PSU has people c*** blocking the HC’s post Joe. Hope that answers your question?

Urban Meyer for 10 million per year for as long as he wants to stay.. Hire Hartline as the OC and the next head coach in waiting.

winners win
I do have one question. Has anyone seen a PS press release asking for a friend. Did I just miss it?

Agree…but we chose to erase the coach that built the program with honor and integrity and greatness.

The first reporter at the press conference that asks Matt how it feels to be the ninth choice should be removed from the building and never allowed back (I’m guessing it will be Flounders).

Guesses on terms? $85 million guaranteed and $15 million in bonuses and incentives. $100 million, 8-year investment in the HC?

Could end up being a bargain at that price.

"Holy shat, Franklin leaves and the walls open up!" LMT

I said here 52 days ago that the price tag for this would be staggering. It is.
