I'm sure some on this board will react negatively to this, but if PSU can remain a top 8-12 program, provided that they can have some seasons here and there in which they approach the top 5, I can live with that considering the demographic changes that have occurred in the last 20 to 30 years in the Northeast.
Unless you can plop the Northeast region into the Southeast or Southwest, it's going to be a fight to maintain PSU as a top 8 to 12 program; PSU probably is the lone program in the Northeast that now has any shot of staying in that position, and there only are a very few in the Midwest (ND, OSU and Michigan) that also can do this. Therefore, like I said, if we can hold our current position, I'd take that.
