You know, one can go away for 10 days or 10 months & things change little......

UPS will open practice @ a now familiar 'isolated' spot....."there will be less distractions here" the Week End @ Bernie's mug was quoted as saying "and most of our players will feel right @ home!"

And the university saves some dough by utilizing the old practice attire:

So SATs are the measuring stick for universities now? Test scores taken by kids BEFORE they attend that college are used to show which school is better?

Even you can come up with something better than that.

Penn State, unlike most other schools, does look deeply into SAT scores to determine admissions. They only use SAT scores for 1/3 of the requirements for admission. Is that for just the university's main campus or does that include branch campus?

Apologize for the confusion. Got Illinois State mixed up with Indiana State. Illinois State is indeed the Redbirds. Indiana State is the Sycamores, you remember, the team PSU scheduled to play at Beaver Stadium on September 3, 2011. ISU will accept a paycheck of $450,000 to play that game. Currently, ISU has lost 26 consecutive games and is 1-44 since 2005. Using past Sagarin rankings to compare Penn State and Indiana State:
...2005 PSU 4th ISU 201st
...2006 PSU 18th ISU 211th
...2007 PSU 26th ISU 238th
...2008 PSU 8th ISU 233rd
...Again sorry about the confusion. Go Tim Curley. At least schedule Villanova and keep the money in-state.
