Success with Hyperlinking is Banned from Contact

by Kyle_Martin on Jul 28, 2011 6:30 AM EDT in Link Dumps

I'm starting off with a bit of non-PSU news today because it looks like our favorite arm punting quarterback will be eligible for the supplemental draft after all. In order to obtain this eligibility, Terrelle Pryor's lawyer needed Ohio State to declare him ineligible to play for the entirety of the 2011 season. Gene Smith took this as an opportunity to disassociate the school with Pryor and banned him from having any contact with Ohio State's athletic programs for five years. This will likely make Pryor eligible for the supplemental draft, but that hasn't been decided yet.

In Penn State related news, the hits just keep on coming for the ice hockey team. Thank You Terry is reporting that goalie Eamon McAdam is coming to Penn State in 2013. I'm especially excited about this because he's apparently from my hometown. And here is a quick look at some of the history of hockey at Penn State.

GoPSUSports is now introducing the incoming freshmen for the basketball team, much like they introduced the new women's volleyball players. So far they've introduced Patrick Ackerman, Peter Alexis and Ross Travis.

Additional donations have been collected for the 2011 Lift for Life. These donations have taken the total money raised to $100,930.

I may be including this just because of the photo. The strange saga of Tate Forcier has finally come to an end, now that he's found a new school. Forcier will be transferring to San Jose State where he'll be eligible to play come 2012.

I love that of all the game action photos Rivals and Yahoo has,

they chose that picture to be the only one in the story

As an 8 year old boy meeting JoePa:
Me: Coach, I really am a big fan of Penn State
Joe: Glad to hear that
Me: I am also a big Notre Dame fan as well
Joe: Son, you can only be a fan of one or the other, not both. Make sure that you pick a winner.

Just because it is the only one that truly captures the Tater.

A nice tidy scapegoat

Yeah, they were so happy to throw Pryor under the bus

that they apparently decided to back it up and run over him again.

Watch as the mysterious Forcier leaves the nest

carefully venturing out into the outside world and beginning its migration to Michigan. Here he will attempt to claim the alpha spot of the herd by preening and engaging in an elaborate dance of intricate steps and hand movements. The dance however, does not work, and while dressed in the maize and blue colors of the wolverine, they do not accept him as one of their own. Upon realizing the harsh realities of his failure, the Forcier flees, heading back to the safety of his birthing grounds from whence he came, much as every Forcier before him. And so the cycle continues…

Positive 'Bama note for us.

Another one of their RB’s went down. Eddie Lacy apparently tore a pectoral muscle and will miss a few games, so it’s Trent Richardson or bust for them in Happy Valley. I don’t know if they even have anyone else to carry the ball.

It's the Alabama Theory.

Talent increases as position on the depth chart decreases. Trent Richardson is better than Mark Ingram, Lacy > Richardson. It follows that Hart was better than Lacy, and the FB Jalston Fowler is going to be better than ANY of them.

The corollary to this, is that anyone not even on the depth chart must be infinitely more talented than anyone on it. So when the Tide come up to PA in September, they should just grab a guy off the street and hand him the ball to spell Richardson.

We can forget about stopping the run now, for sure.

This would be funnier if it wasn’t true. But I’ll rec it anyway.

Just think how good the guys they DON'T recruit must be

NFL teams should just ask prospects at the combine “would you have gone to Alabama if Saban had offered a scholarship?” If they say yes – but went to Ole Miss instead – there’s your first round draft pick.
