@rip does anybody want this dude Pat Kraft in panic mode just giving the job to whoever? Y’all know how much I love to win and I’m telling ya, Manny is the best man for the job today, especially today. If Lincoln Riley who won 4 big 12 championships at Oklahoma is struggling at USC WTH does this dude think a BYU coach can do any better at Penn St? This dude needs to go and get a Penn St guy making decisions.
Is there a reason why Chesney has not yet signed with UCLA?
Hate to say it but Penn State just isn’t that big of a job anymore. Great coaches don’t want to come here.
The reason why Kraft ain't panicking is because he already has his guy signed and is waiting for that coaches season to end or the appropriate time to announce the signing...I am willing to bet that 3 to 5 people know about this hire...MAYBE 3 people from Penn State, the coach himself and his agent and nobody is talking...That is what is driving the talking heads crazy...I also believe this super agent is using this as a marketing and negotiating tool to get his clients contract extensions and a big raise...Relax...This will all come out soon enough...No need to panic...

There are 2 sides to every story and the truth resides somewhere in the middle. The problem where the media is concerned is the middle is not sexy and doesn't generate clicks!!!
Well I don’t know how true it is but I just read where Hartline is going to USF. I’m also hearing Kraft passed on him and the OC from Oregon because they have never been head coaches. If that’s the case how can he justify hiring Terry?
I do believe Kraft is in over his head and has been from the beginning and now he is in desperation mode. He will probably just rush to put someone in there which may end up screwing us even more down the road.
Kraft should have swallowed his pride or ego or whatever you want to call it and just went with Chesney who is a North East guy. But now we will end up with sloppy 2nd’s or 3rd’s. JMO.
@roaminglion it ain’t looking good from what I see. Pennlive could be wrong I don’t know for sure I’m not in any kind of loop I just try and connect the dots.
I take no stock in PennLive whatsoever...They hate the Penn State Football program and will do whatever they can to create whatever kind of doubt and harm to the program they possibly can...
Being reported across multiple news sources
what is being reported across multiple news sources 61?
Hartline to USF
Stein to Kentucky
Oh..I don't doubt that...That means that Penn State wasn't going to hire either of them...I am sure they are poaching one of these coaches that are currently coaching a playoff team...
Kraft better pull a rabbit out of his hat or the shit is going to hit the fan.
Dumpster fire!!!!!!
I think he has a guy hired and they are waiting to announce it...

Penn State interviewed both of them and decided neither were good enough.
And now we’re interested in the Houston Cougars coach
Then why did they have an agreement in principle with the BYU coach?
this is a major national embarrassment.
I don't think they are looking at anybody...I think whoever it is they are hiring is already hired and they are waiting on the announcement...That is my take and I am sticking to it until I see otherwise...Like I said before I refuse to believe the money guys fired franklin mid season without a replacement in hand...If they don't have anybody lined up they need to fire Kraft and everybody involved with this because they are incompetent idiots...

If they don’t pull a rabbit out of Krafts hat what is going to fry all of those people on the search committee is the fact that they thought so much of themselves that they decided not to use a search firm.
If a playoff coach is being poached, dont be surprised if its a $15M/yr salary by now.
Go big or go home!
I honestly think that was the plan all along to be honest with you and I said that the day Franklin was fired...They ain't pouring 1 Billion into a stadium and facilities upgrade to hire some unproven or 2nd rate head coach...I am telling ya...They are buying out one of these big time coaches...Book it...If I am wrong then these guys are incompetent idiots...
