You know, as Pitt fans and alumni we are a bit wrapped up in the future of our football team and who the next head coach will be.

Still, it is nothing compared to all the crazy coaching stuff swirling around the Penn State football team. I mean the latest Paterno pious press conference rantings that takes a blind, wild shot at USC and one of their WR from NJ. You have meaningless speculation on a Pittsburgh sports talk radio station, that a PennLive blogger thought was an actual report and caused a mild bit of hysteria. Then in apologizing for the confusion, a new conspiracy was advanced as to the reason.

Oh and once and what was expected to be future Penn State WR Maurice Humphrey was arrested again — he violated terms of his parole from an assault conviction.

I wonder if I can pull off the sympathetic voice when I talk to my dad about this. I just hope I don’t start giggling. That would be wrong. As wrong as this.
