Further evidence of how incredibly low Penn State football has sunk: there were NO Penn Staters selected in this year’s NFL draft. Not a one. It was only five years ago I bragged in this entry about how Penn State players were drafted both #1 and #2 overall (and only the third time in history players from the same school went 1-2).
On the other hand, I talked with my friend John who went to Saturday’s Blue-White game (spring football scrimmage at PSU) and he said there was a lot of great young offensive talent on display. It would be nice to see Joepa have a winning season before he retires (whenever that may be, with some of us now hoping it will be sooner rather than later).
The papers are raving about how good Robinson looked. An amazing 6-for-6 against the second and third string defense. While Morelli was 7-for-19 against the 1st string offense. Gee, do you think JoePa stacked the deck to get support for starting his senior QB? It still amazes me that he plays senority over talent. By the way, I did not follow your links, but this is the first time since 1951 that PSU did not have someone drafted.
I knew it had been a very long time since PSU had no one drafted, but 1951!?! I was afraid to look it up, and now I see why.
