Well I have been wanting to say something for awhile now, from back when the OTL piece came out.  This whole thing about Penn State being angelic and the recently turning in to Sodom is garbage.  It is very well true in perception, but not reality.  You think no one got in trouble in the  80's when we were at our best? B.S.  This was largely all hyped up because of the 87 Fiesta bowl against Miami to make us look like choir boys.  I digress.  In the Harrisburg Patriot News the day after the OTL piece they had an awesome article.  In it they spoke to several former PSUers including Matt Millen about the topic.  These former players had declined interview on OTL because they disagreed with the premise and were angered when the "journalist" tried to insist the former guys were perfect while they denied it.  They had numerous stories of fights, credit card fraud, drinking, etc.  Doesn't make it right, but its not like its anything new in the world of college football, even at PSU.

ALSO i think there is one very important thing being overlooked.  We are not/have not been in trouble for questionable recruiting(Ron Zook, Minnesota) or for academic scandal(BOWDEN, THE Ohio Staint university).  So while the players may not have the hardest go at school, we aren't cheaters and to me, what happened at FSU this past year is ten times more awful then even half our players getting stoned and fighting people.

Just my opinion.

Other past examples: Kerry Collins was a drunk, Bobby Engram stole a car radio, Jurevicious and Enis took suits, M-Rob, Matt Rice, and Ed Johnson got in a fight outside the ice rink in 05; Rashard Casey? LaVon Chisley?....etc...etc...etc Its not new folks.
