Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

I should say, I base this on schadenfreude-listening to a bunch of their podcasts in the middle of this season, not on their looks. Also her appearances with Bill and Doug.
Even though their pointless Kings of the North podcast got cancelled (because nobody cared) all they still seem to talk about on their current Ohio State channel is other northern football teams....

Whenever I see their videos pop up on YouTube I scroll on by.

To be fair I cared until Doug turned a blind eye to cheating in a state I won't mention.

Interim coach Terry Smith gains fan, roster support for Penn State job as candidate list shrinks

After consecutive wins, Smith's success has Nittany Lions pushing for him to be the next coach in Happy Valley

Beaver Stadium didn't wait for the final whistle to make its preference known. Long before the clock drained in Penn State's 37-10 win against Nebraska, a verdict had already been delivered. Throughout the second half, a low rumble built into a full-throated chant -- "Terry! Terry!" -- echoing from the student section outward throughout Happy Valley.

Those chants didn't stop when the game ended, either. As interim coach Terry Smith did his on-field interview, several players clustered behind him holding signs that read, "Hire Terry Smith." Moments earlier, Smith walked to midfield to shake hands with Matt Rhule -- the coach who gave him his first FBS opportunity at Temple more than a decade ago. It carried a certain symmetry: acknowledgment from a former mentor, followed by an unmistakable message from the roster Smith now leads.

Smith, elevated to interim coach after James Franklin's firing on Oct. 12, didn't try to downplay how much the night meant.

"I'm very motivated by the support," Smith said. "My players love me unconditionally. I love them unconditionally. Their support means everything to me. The fans were unbelievable again tonight. ... It encourages us. It motivates us. It gives us energy."....:lol:

As candidate pool shrinks, homegrown choice grows

What once felt like a wide-open coaching search tightened considerably. The initial wave of outside candidates -- the type of names that dominate early wish lists -- has largely evaporated. Several of them are now off the board altogether. Curt Cignetti signed a massive extension at Indiana. Matt Rhule did the same at Nebraska. Mike Elko is staying put at Texas A&M. And even Jeff Brohm -- another early name -- is reportedly closing in on security of his own in Louisville. With each move, the list of realistic external targets grows shorter.

Against that backdrop, Smith's candidacy shifted from a feel-good storyline to a practical, compelling option.....:lol:

Just sayin': Beating 2 "loser" B1G teams like Corn and Sparty ain't going to get you the head coaching job.
