Just because Blackledge stunk in the NFL, does not mean he isn't a success in every other way. I would consider him a "successful" PSU quarterback. My post was meant to be funny. I am a Penn State grad, and I know PSU quarterbacks have not done well at the next level, and I know many PSU running backs have been complete busts also...(Blair Thomas, KiJana Carter, Curtis Enis). I was simply poking fun at my own school. Let's talk about coaches however?? I aim to please in teh sports section here!!
Are you still happy with JoePa? He is one of the 5 greatest coaches of all time, there is no debate. But his last 10 years have not been great. I sense there are a lot of PSU alum who would like to see him step down in a classy manor and not embarrass himself. He has been increasingly surly with the press and his press conferences seem less coherent.FYI-- I attend at least 2 PSU home games a year and my wife is a Penn State Alum.
