PENN STATE - 78 - 77 - 81 - 89
PITT - 67 - 59 - 79 - 84

Take a shower.

Are these percentages or what? When was this done? Source?

[shocker]

Overall is 5% better for the nit wits??.....that is a matter of just a few athletes. Its not like 40-50. Come on now.

[WPIAL~Titan]

These are SLIGHTLY better than Pitt, yet hardly overwhelming or convincing numbers TAE...SINCE PSU ADMITS SUCH "INTELLIGENT" INDIVIDUALS AND HAS SUCH STRINGENT ADMISIONS STANDARDS, SHOULDN'T THEIR RATE BE CLOSER TO 100% AND EVEN MORE SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER THAN A LOWLY PROGRAM AND ACADEMIC CAKEWALK LIKE PITT'S??? You're embarassing yourself and crapping in a dark room without a pot.

I picked a few players from PSU's roster and here are their majors...

Daryl Clark and Andrew Quarless...Telecommunications...I guess they're going to be telemarketers, or maybe produce rap vidoes for Navorro "Afro Man" Bowman???

Derek Moye...Parks, Recreation, and Tourism Management...You have GOT to be kidding me...He'll be lifeguarding and selling ice cream sandwiches at Canoe Creek, or handing out programs at the Curve games.

Mickey Shuler...Kinesiology...That's a fancy word for GYM RAT or PERSONAL TRAINER.

D'Anton Lynn..."College of Liberal Arts"...His bio says, "He is enrolled in the College of the Liberal Arts and would like to be a football coach." ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? That means he'll sleep through class, earn a 2.0 by doing nothing, and pad those grad rates!

HERE IS THE BEST ONE OF ALL TIME...Navorro Bowman is in the program of Crime, Law, and Justice, and I am absolutely laughing my *** off at this one...THIS HAS TO BE A BAD JOKE. Penn State's academic advisor for the football team should lose his job for not steering Navorro out of this major...Of course, admissions standards at PSU are so tough and the kids are so intelligent, they don't need any guidance or advising anyway, right? IF Afro Man finishes his degree between serving his probation (after blowing it off the first time), doing Sunday morning trash detail, and taking daily hits of ganja, it's gonna be tough to land a job in his chosen field after his employer checks his criminal clearances! If PSU really cared about this kid academically, they'd be counseling him into something else, like Tourism or Telemarketing or Golf Course Procurement...and if they didn't care about embarassing Navorro AND their football program, they'd have left this out of the PSU football Prospectus.

In past years, I have also seen the likes of: Parks and Recreation, Division of General Studies, Golf Course Procurement, and Turf Management.Print your graduation stats and talk out your toenails about how "difficult it is to get admitted to PSU", while anyone who knows the REAL STORY laughs...THESE "ACADEMIC" PROGRAMS ARE JOKES AND WERE DEVELOPED WITH JOKESTERS BLESSING SO THAT DUMB***** LIKE THESE GUYS COULD "EARN A DEGREE" AND MAKE THE STATS LOOK GOOD. It's all part of the FRAUDULENT AND FAULTY GRAND EXPERIMENT.

You have got to be kidding me posting graduation rates at PSU. These academic programs are SHAMEFUL and borderline scandalous. My DOG could earn a degree in some of those programs.

I've never seen such a hate. Wow. I can just see the sweat dripping off your face in anger as you type these posts.

Ethan Kilmer graduated in a Kinesiology, a word to big for even WPIAL titan to spell. That alone proves that you know jack$#!t about anything. Ripping on a kid about majoring in Kinesiology is like ripping on a kid going for his doctorate. Mickey Shuler is clearly more advanced and academic that you could even hope to be. Keep spewing that garbage about PSU. You only make the school and program look better by being a total assclown on a daily basis. Keep it up. PSU loves it!!!

[The Ancient Enemy]

Looks to me like it's 11%.

[level7hunter]

Do you even know what kinesiolgy is? I guess not its another word for exercise science which is the study of the human body in movement its much much more than being a gym rat it preps students to go to masters school or get their doctorate in physical therapy dip ****

[frostlion]

What else can your dog do Titan??? I'm sure you know all the answers to that question.

Your ignorance of college academics that was displayed by your post is sad, pathetic, and disgusting. But then, coming from you, I'm not suprised.

Dear Nitters,

I quit, you win. PSU football is the best program in the nation. I should naver have questioned the thinking of the PSU empire and its loyal fan base. I apologize for posting FACTS about their record as compared to Pitt's over the past decade, and apologize for pointing out that PSU is 5-18 over the past decade against the "haves" of the Big preTENd, if there is such a thing, while attempting to substantiate that PSU is the 4th best team in their conference.

I am sorry for constantly brining up PSU's crime report as it relates to Depth Chart Justice. It was insensitive of me to question the Grand Experiment. Questioning PSU's solid academic programs like Telecommunications and Parks/Recreation for football players and the guidance that's being given to Navorro Bowman in terms of an academic major was wrong and inaccurate. I'm sure Navorro will get a job in his chosen field, despite his lengthy rap sheet.

Attendance, TV appearances, and having 8 home games every year, most of which are against patsies, is definitely the way to run a program from a financial standpoint. What was I thinking to ever even question the PSU empire?

What a fool I am. Factors such as attendance, TV appearances, and money have combined to bring about more wins on the field than Pitt over the past decade. PSU has clearly been dominant, sporting 4 more wins than PItt in the last 100 or so games, despite PSU's football program being light years ahead of PItt's.

I also apologize for not using opinion poll rankings as the basis for my arguments. Perception is always reality, no matter what the wins and losses say. I will use opinion polls published by sportswriters and coaches as the basis for my thinking regarding what defines a great college football program, except if PSU loses and Pitt wins this weekend.

The only truth regarding PSU is that truth which is spoken from the lips of The Messiah (Mr. Paterno) and his well informed followers who exercise such unabated loyalty to Him.

What in the world have I been thinking? Please forgive me.

Sincerely,

WT
