Figures, you low class hooligans.

That guys name has been super hot for the last couple of years and the best he gets is Penn State?

Nothing against PSU as a football program, but that place is in shambles to be considered a big time job, especially after the jab O'Brien gave the fans and admin.

Thinking one more year at Vandy would have opened up better options for him.

1. lots of history
2. some of the best facilities in the nation
3. one of the biggest fanbases
4. the b10 East which looks to be one of the toughest divisions when it starts
5. a football first culture rivaled only by texas

Ugh ...

1. Pretty much every university of size has their own golf course. Just picking nits.

2. Vandy is not remotely comparable to PSU in academics ... it is far superior.

3. The Vandy overall college experience is just as good if not better than PSU ... you act like Vandy is some small liberal arts college. Other than a big stadium, there ins't much you get at PSU you don't get at Vandy.

you really are a clueless dumbfuck

poor Vandy.

Not so sure about the "college experience" but its hard for any school to compete with Vandy being located in Nashville. What an awesome town.

Guise.. It's been tossed around that PSU could end up bowl eligible this upcoming year. Sanctions are on their way out. LOB's recruiting class has stuck in there, and we have one of the top going into 2nd year QBs out there. This is for real now. Call me a homer, but we'll be back in the national picture very soon now.

They just got a lot happier in Happy Valley. Franklin to Penn State is a big win-win for both parties. It would/will be nice to see Penn State back as a national power

Penn State is one of the best schools in America and anyone who has visited that school very quickly understands why that is the case. The university is spread out over several square miles of beautiful rolling hills surrounded by the Allegheny mountains and has some great facilities to use. The school even has it's own golf course and even that is an excellent place to play golf. Very low crime rate in the area, great academics, wonderful sport facilities...what's not to like. Sandusky wrecked a great program, however things pass and Penn State will be a contender for the Big 10 title once again. To say that Vanderbilt is remotely comparable to Penn State, other than academics, is a big mistake. Vandy is a great school and is very demanding in their academics, however in no way can be compared with Penn State for an overall college experience; and certainly will never be a football threat.

You've never been to Vanderbilt, obviously.

You are one of the most dislikable people on these forums. Mine was a very reasonable response to a robust discussion. Then you reply spewing your nonsense and hate. Please expound as to how PSU is such a better college experience.

I have been to both Vanderbilt (my best friend from HS went there) and PSU (my brother went there) on multiple occasions.

Vandy may have the better academics, but the student life is 10X better at PSU than Vandy. PSU is a campus that is entirely self sustaining and offers pretty much every activity you can name.

I have been to a lot of campuses and I am telling you that trying to downplay PSU campus proves that you are just talking out of your ass.

Are you 12? Grow up or GTFO.

yeah sorry but anyone trying to down playing the student life at PSU is clearly talking out of their ass

that is not your call to make

Really all you need to know in 2 simple photos.

I will say that something real cool about Vandy when we were there is that we just walked into the stadium the day before the game and there were students running steps & we went down onto the field. That would never happen at PSU.

 

[HammerDown]

I'm not calling anything. You proved it.

 

[HammerDown]

So then Tennessee is obviously a better job than Penn State using that flawless logic, right?
