Who Is On Penn State's Mount Rushmore? The Big Ten Network Needs Your Help Deciding.

If you've read Land-Grant Holy Land, you already know today's big news. If you haven't, we have, uh, good news!

All of SB Nation's Big Ten blogs are partnering with the Big Ten Network on a special project to figure out which four people deserve to be on a figurative Mount Rushmore for every school in the B1Ggest conference in America. Of course, trying to limit that to four Penn Staters would be an incredibly difficult task for our staff, so we need your help.

The list of the best players in PSU history has been painstakingly narrowed down to 10 names. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to rank those 10 players from "best" to "tenth best." To help you out, all of the potential candidates are listed below, and there are brief bios for everyone. Read up on them, cast your vote, and the Big Ten Network will compile its list based on what you have to say. To find out which players made Penn State's Mount Rushmore, make sure you watch the Big Ten Network on Thursday, Dec. 11 at 10 pm.

Here are the Terrific/Tantalizing/Titilating/Tremendous 10. The ballot is below. As Puff Daddy said, "Vote or Die."
