2026 PA OL Kevin Brown (West Virginia Signee)

brodybuck21

Penn State OT commit among three 2026 visitors​

Arguably the most important visitor at Ohio State this weekend will be one who’s currently committed to Saturday’s opponent. The Buckeyes would love to add another premier offensive line prospect to their current haul at the position, and the No. 4 OT in the 2026 class is expected to be in Ohio Stadium on Saturday.

Kevin Brown has been committed to Penn State since July 2024, but he’s exploring his options following James Franklin’s firing earlier this month. The No. 59 overall prospect in the 2026 class, Brown also made an official visit to West Virginia this week, though his visit to Ohio State is not expected to be an OV.

May not be ready for head coach but jobs like OSU, Ped State, USC, Bama, ND don't pop off often
We could say Freeman wasn't ready for ND but made it work
So it'd make sense for Ped State to take the chance.. especially the major increase in recruiting talent
but man that would hurt... and I'd start drinking (I'm not a drinker)
My chips are on Brian Kelly

OC/WR Coach Brian Hartline (National Champion, HC at USF, Buckeye OC for this postseason)

It all comes down to his ability to hire coordinators, when given a HC opportunity.

I’ve used the example repeatedly, but Dabo went from used cars salesman, to WR Coach, to interim HC, to (2) National Championship coach, while admittedly not being good at “X’s and O’s”. He’s struggled lately as he refuses to adapt to modern landscape, but the blueprint is there. Dabo was an elite CEO style coach who was the closer on recruits, but relied on coordinators to handle game-planning.

Maybe Hartline becomes a great play caller, but his obvious strength is recruiting. He crushes it yearly. If he does take a HC position, it’s bc that school knows he’s about to start a development pipeline. The key is his coordinators and how well he can assemble a staff.

Reading this post and thinking of Cigetti. Guy has kept his same staff through 3 schools. No wonder he was able to hit the ground running at IU.

Not every coach gets the chance to take his staff with him.

Nebraska Cornhuskers (corn)

Just some more datapoints from Google:

It has been 3,624 days since Bo Pelini was fired as Nebraska's head football coach on November 30, 2014.

It has been 5,236 days since Nebraska officially joined the Big Ten on July 1, 2011.

I was hoping those numbers would line up better.

Actually those numbers line up perfectly. Nebraska joined the B1G and breathed a sigh of relief because they were no longer in a conference run by Texas. They were ready to dominate and win championships again. 4 seasons later they were incredulous they had not only not dominated, they had won no championships. So they fired Pelini, because obviously he must be holding them back. The rest is history.

Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

ORD_Buckeye
It's still a better job than LSU. Who is going to want to have their career defined by their ability to navigate the unrealistic expectations and political meddling of that job.

Now, as the Governor of one of the poorest states in the country and a relatively poor school for a state flagship, that Governor should have better things to do. The fact that he doesn't speaks volumes to the warped culture around LSU.
