I really hope this is next level trolling. If this is in fact trolling, it’s absolutely glorious haha.

Since both were considering PSU atleast up until recently and that happened when they were toddlers. I can't imagine that had anything to do with it.

mmmm...

There's a tradition humans have where we pass on stories and history to people who didn't actually live through events.

It started before the internet.

Im not saying thats what happened but... come on, man

I would agree that that situation probably has 0% outcome on recruits decision whether or not to go to PSU. I am significantly older than these recruits and hold no ill will towards Penn St. The responsible parties are long since gone.

That being said, the fact that Franklin is a sleaze ball and Freeman is a fantastic role model would have a lot more bearing on my decision.

The program should have got the death penalty. If the same thing happened at ND, we wouldn't be playing football anymore

Its an easy argument to make.

Its all im saying, man

Im not sure why its controversial

Covering up a crime as despicable as child sexual abuse deserves the ACTUAL death penalty.

Listen, im sorry

I shouldn't be going on like this in a recruit's thread maybe... but i work in child welfare and it hits home.

Fuck PSU

I dont think the state should have the right to kill any individual citizen, but the state should certainly not stand idly by while a program covered up a multi decades long child diddling billion dollar business

And that sentiment gets to people who weren't born when it happened. Im not saying that is the reason for the alleged trolling now, but it would be awesome if it was

Never will accept adam breneman who committed to them after all that shit came out. I get as a pundit/podcaster he is pretty Notre Dame friendly but still he said no to Notre Dame and yes to pedo state

What PSU did was awful regarding the coverup, but I highly doubt that effects recruits today. It is a totally different program and everyone from the Paterno/Sandusky era is gone. I have a hard time believing any HS recruit is going to be like "I like your school, but what about that child sex scandal that happened when I was just a wee lad (possibly not even born yet)."

I just asked a simple question about O'Briens recruitment, not sure how I ended up in an argument with you. I hope you don't use the same condescending tone with the kids you work with that you used with me.

Oh and I live in PA and have children so that hits close to home for me too. When that happened the first words out of my mouth were PSU football should get the death penalty. Then it was explained to me that Penn State university probably collapses without PSU football, so they got a free pass and it got swept under the rug. Sandusky can burn in hell and by association so can Joe pa but there was really nothing that could've been done outside of a slap on the wrist

I clicked the tweet and that was a mistake. It's state college hopium account. Doesn't even try to come across as rational.

Gives Ws to PSU on the oddest or most fabricated shit:
best roster in football?
most fans at the orange bowl? LOL. He's not talking about who won or who had the better team, coach, etc.

It is fun knowing those guys feel the pain every time ND gets better/takes a recruit they wanted.
