First here; NE could be the dark horse next year. With a solid QB (portal) and the changes Frost has made, could be a magical run. CV to NE (?).

Why would Veilleux transfer out when he's currently the heir apparent? If anything I see Cliff getting beaten out in the spring and entering the portal himself.  IMO the only reason Sean's been the starter for the last couple years is because there's been no one behind him on the depth chart to challenge him.

Utah put up 35 points on Ohio St in the first half. Watching the Rose Bowl and if you watch these QB’s you can easily see we have much more problems than just the OL. We have a lot of problems and with a 10 year contract just signed I don’t see any light at the end of the tunnel unless we get a stud QB. Pitt. Goes toe to toe with Michigan St with a third string QB so that tells you how bad it is. We can’t score..period. Man, we can’t beat Arkansas with a QB that struggled to throw. Arkansas is average at best with 2 and 3* players.

Just feeling cynical. And the answer to why is, who is the HC? Yeah, CV probably stays but given the right opportunity why? Really boild down to what his dreams and goals are and where he thinks he can make that happen. I've been saying for some time, today's game is very different and the players are very different than 5-10-20+ years ago. 

IMO as an arm chair HC, I'd used today's game as a fun game, no pressure, lets see what we got, lets be completive and get the younger guys some experience. The fact is the season was blown with the starters in the first place so WTF, go out and enjoy the experience. CV is not going to unseat Cliff, not b/c of skill etc but b/c JF isnt making the change and JF isnt going to turn it over to MY.  Cliff should have been benched third quarter...

Oh, the objective of my initial post was not about CV transferring but NE being a dark horse. I just threw in the CV for fodder...

CV has done nothing to be the "heir apparent" considering we have two QBs coming in next year.

Any one of them could be the backup next year.

Yea and all those teams you mentioned have decent to good O lines. Tom Brady couldn’t perform like Tom Brady behind our line. You can’t run with a bad o-line. You can’t have a good passing game if the o-line doesn’t protect and give the QB time. COME ON MAN!

@navylion  yep and that’s James Franklins fault. Bad QB’s, bad OL, bad field goal kicking and bad tackling it was time for a coaching change not a contract extension.

@southern-psu-fan don’t disagree on that. But on the offensive side the oline is the majority of the problem.

Utah and Ohio State have 2 of the best OL's in the NCAA. Not surprising their QBs look good behind them.

Watching Ohio State today, I realized how poorly PSU is coached.

@sky Not sure if you think we don't understand the point you're trying to make or if you're getting old and senile, but you sure seem to be repeating yourself in damn near every thread. Hang in there, things might change eventually, but I'm pretty sure your bitchin' about it won't help one way or the other. If you lost interest, why does it ruin your day so much?

That's a damn good question! For a while I wasn't sure but Sky's rants yesterday have me convinced that he and Tighten/Niccy/Snakeoil are one and the same. It was kinda funny and pathetic watching him talk to himself in the one thread below.

@psujoe I used the think Niccy's alter ego was the sharper of the two.
