Official PSU - Oregon '25 Game thread
- Thread starter Tom McAndrew
- Start date
Last I checked, Vrabel is at the top level of coaching with no indication he wants to cater to teenage primadonnas.
We were a big boy last year. We’re a big boy this year. So Franklin is set.
At best we are headed for a first round road playoff game. I see a classic Big Game James loss in Tuscaloosa (or name an SEC road venue) coming with Allar once again crumbling at the worst moment.
I stayed up and watched bama TiVo. I like their qb a lot. I think he’s 15 too lol
Hmm. That’s interesting. I was shocked OSU hired him. The overall sentiment when he was the HC at the Lions was that he was a prick. Maybe that debacle humbled him?
Yes, at the worst possible moment. Staring down the receiver just in case Oregon did not know where the ball was going. But we all can all be comforted that he is elite. We can also all look forward to another game losing pick.
If we're 10-2 we're probably hosting a playoff game.
So Allar lost the game on one play? It's adorable how little people actually comprehend about sports yet continue watching.
IMO, we need a young hot shot OC HC to stabilize the constant turnover. The only goal for 3-4 years is go 9-1 vs blue hens and build a culture. Today we go 10-0 v blue hens and lots here are fine with it so why not. In what world do you think we struggle v MD if we fire big game? A in no world

I agree. That is on Knowles. $3 million and this is what we get. Defense folded like a cheap tent when we needed them to step up. But with that, the offense lost the game in the first 3 quarters.
So, laka's solution is to bring in someone else, so we can consistently lose more, because that will build a culture of winning.
This message is brought to you by ... Bath Salts ... they're what's for dinner!
Did you know the coach who smoked us last nite in 2020? A no u didn’t. Why so scared moogy. Don’t live like that
Yes, of course I knew of Lanning back then. Lanning immediately came in to Oregon and matched the success of the previous regime, and then improved on it each year. He didn’t come in and have the organization take a step back for 3-4 years.
laka’s most recent message brought to you by crack cocaine … crack cocaine, the perfect dessert to pair with your dinner of bath salts.
Wait, so after you’re told that your plan to hire someone to change the culture to a winning one by losing is crazy … and after you’re corrected that Lanning didn’t come to Oregon and make them lose more than they had previously (in fact, they quickly went the opposite direction), your reply is to assert that someone didn’t know who the DC of the national champions was? The DC of the national champions, who had been rumored to be up for other HC positions. And you base this assertion off … absolutely nothing.
You’re so out of it, you make those who might have legitimate reasons for wanting Franklin replaced, and legitimate ideas as to potential replacements look like kooks by association.

I recently took the given advice to ignore him. Trust me - it makes reading and participating on the board much better. No more debating with a drunken fool who acts and talks like a 17 year old for attention but just comes off like a tool and a troll.
I have a 17-year-old. And a 15-year-old. They're far more mature and articulate than laka. He acts more like a single digit aged kid, trying to act older, but having no frame of reference for how the older kids act.
I’m sure she’s a fine young lady and happy for you. if she sees even a touch of 1 n 2s success, you’ll be super happy
I’ll give you someone that someone else suggested a few months ago that intrigued me. Brian Hartline. I’m not sure if he would leave OSU, but he has a footprint in the B1G already with the landscape of recruiting, etc. and has been in a wildly successful program as a player and a coach.
If the AD has a problem with CJF, he seems like the type of guy who will take action. The AD knows how much money was spent. He knows if PSU should have won. He knows if that was the best possible effort this year. He was standing on the sideline. If he thinks CJF can get it done, he’ll stick with him. If not, I think he‘ll do something.

Take it to the test board.
Newt did not accept losing - love him or hate him, PSU could use some of that competive spirit.
So toss in an occasional loss to Purdue and lose all real games? Is that really that much different?
So you want a 100% guarantee of success? If it were that easy, all teams would do it. Or do you think only Penn State tries to win games?
Better than the second worst big game record in college football history? No where to go but up!
