Congratulations John Petrishen! Ex-Nittany Lion!!

He's more like our boards court-jestor!
Providing us laughs every post!
He's very good at it most times!
Nah! He's allowed to express his incorrect opinions. ;-)
Discussion is good food.
I get you guys hate Pitt and everything about Pitt. Pitt is not relevant to PSU. For me as aPitt fan I enjoyed the season. Did PSU lack of success make my season better NO. I would love PA have Big 10 and ACC champions
I prefer Shakespeare's rendering of the minnow reference: "Hear you this Triton of the minnows", from Coriolanus. Still, I appreciate metaphor!
So Pitt is 7-5 average under the Duz against their peers and PSU is 8-4 average against our peers under CJF. Be careful of your mocking of them.
Yes, our schedules are harder overall, but I believe we (should) get better players than they do.
In this case, I truly meant that his points were valid.
I'm neither a Pitt hater nor lover.
There will be some good stories out of any program.
In this case, I like the Petrishen story....fwiw.
All this because of a congratulatory message to an ex-Penn Stater!
Oh well.
Oh well.
That’s as close as you’ve ever come to admitting that you’re wrong, and you’ve been wrong a lot. Progress, I suppose.

Danny Kaye has nothing on you let me tell ya!
I never referenced the 2020 PSU team. You did in your attempt to fellate all things Pissburgh.
I take comfort in knowing that every sunrise brings you one day closer to joining Sergeant Carter. You won’t be missed as much as he’s been.Please direct your incorrect criticism to:

He played at Pitt, so he actually did quit football.
PSU isn’t relevant to you as a Pitt fan. Pitt just won their conference championship, yet you’re on the PSU message board instead of celebrating with other Pitt fans. There appears to be a disconnect there. Or perhaps you’re just a bad liar.

The reason he has zero sacks was because someone had to play the 5 technique in this defense. Toney was too small and weak to do it so Oweh stepped up. If we had someone who could have played the 5 better than Oweh, he would have started at the 7 and led the nation with sacks. Same thing happened to Deion Barnes. A better coordinator could have and would have shifted the defense to suit the talent on hand (odd front) but we didn't have one. Oweh is the man. He took one for the team knowing it would kill his personal numbers.
As one poster here often points out, we should beat Pitt before mocking them.
Oh, wait…….
I understand you come into any intellectual discussion over-matched but do try to keep up sir!
Then the Pitt Staff must have misused him considering in the previous 2 years at Pitt he had 14 tackles total. So in 7 years of college football 87 total tackles.
AND what about Kenny Heisman? They misused him for four years before finally uncovering his inner diamond.
You’re under the impression that this is some type of playful interaction to me. It’s not. In the unlikely event that we ever end up meeting, that will become obvious. For now, it’s off to ignore for you.I understand you come into any intellectual discussion over-matched but do try to keep up sir!
Are you going to be OK Glov making his ignore List? I'll be here for emotional support if you need it.
Thank you kind sir.
Perhaps a 6-pack of the finest Pilsner and a 'shot' chaser will help ease the pain!
Call you if I need you sir!!
It's all good. I did enjoy reading and discussing most of his posts.
Discussion is good food and he certainly contributes in that regard.
However, the thinly-vailed thread is a no-no.
I actually value his input here.
You can't be the same Glov from the other board.....
You may as well start rooting for the Domers.....
SMH....
Greg, you are one of my fav's sir.
I mean that.
Hope to meet you one day before the Grim-Reaper meets me!
sigh. I think most here get the concept of sarcasm... and had you read my other posts you'd know i was nothing but complimentary of what pitt accomplished this year... much as it pains me to say it (same with michigan).
Pitt isn't relevant to PSU yet here you are coping and seething
Almost nothing in your post is true.
1. WMU didn't come in last in the MAC West. In fact, they finished with the same 7-5 record as PSU.
2. Pitt had 1 7-year senior. Tre Tipton. And he hardly played.
3. This was Pickett's 5th year, not 6th. He was a true freshman in 2017 and never redshirted. He is also the same age as Clifford.
And, truth be told, he is better than Clifford.
Sorry my PSU faithful but he is.
If we had him as our QB, well, you'd all be singing his praises.
Just hope that statement is not too controversial.
Good performance on a fair or worse defense...good for both him and us.
He’s on my board. I didn’t comment on his. Are you too stupid to comprehend the difference?
Fwiw my post earlier wasn’t to point out you were wrong as I clicked thru and saw it was yahoo. Just a glitch in their stats. I only saw the discrepancy as I wanted to see how many games he played at PSU.Please direct your incorrect criticism to:

You are wrong, or perhaps simply lying. This was Petrishen’s seventh year. His first year at PSU was 2015. You are probably capable of handling that math.

I think he mailed it in last year. He was unable to seal the end.
This is a really good point. While Draft Day is fun and continues careers for our guys that we follow. Would you rather have 5 * draft day workout kings or winning college football players? Katherine sure as heck ain't a pro...but he probably is lined up where he is supposed to be, maintains his edge or fills his gap....likely better than12 or 13. He also seems to be a hot button for where opposing teams go when he is in (witness msu running td).
People here were thrilled when Petrishen committed here. Didn't work out with us due to an injury then log jam. Good for him to go home and see success. He will likely get more mileage in his career if he stays in the Burgh as a Pitt ACC Champ with ring vs PSU player on teams that were a couple of injuries, and a couple of mistakes, and a couple of bad calls, and a couple of head scratching coaching moves from being great.
Yeah...ACC is down and weak..but so are we. Good for the young man. Glad it worked out for him.
1. WMU finished 4-4 which was last place in the MAC west. Tied with Ball State and Eastern Michigan for last place.
2. Maybe you should tell the Pitt athletic Department that cause Pertishen was one also. Pitt had more guys with extra eligibility then anyone in the country.
3. Yes you are right he is only a 5th year guy but my point is with out COVID he would have been out of eligibility.
