    Who’s the next PSU coach?

    Thanks for the correction, Math was never my strong suite. My bad, I meant 4 out of 10. By the way, he had Navy Wings of Gold on his uniform but served as a Marine Officer.

    Who’s the next PSU coach?

    OMG. Ted Williams was the greatest hitter in baseball with an above 400 average. That’s one hit out of 10. James has been in the top ten 3 out of the last 4 years. Probably about 60 programs that would give their left arm for that record. Having a bad year yes, but the summary of his tenure...

    Worst car you ever owned?

    Returned after a Med deployment and bought a 1985 VW Rabbit GTI. All the auto magazines described it as a pocket rocket. It drove like a bat out of hell and handled magnificently. I named it The Wonder Car. I always wondered what would fail next. Passenger seat back weld broke, came out one...

    What was the most devastating sporting event loss you’ve experienced as a non-participant?

    Unfortunately I was at both of these 1999 Minnesota- silence was defining leaving the field. 2005 Michigan- After MRob put the team on his back and all most willed that score, I was sure that was a win. It was like the first 58 minutes of the game lasted 58 minutes and the last 2 minutes...
