When Walt Harris was getting the axe, I told everyone they’d be sorry.
walt harris was a great guy for producing skill players for the pro’s but the object is to get a whole team to win a national championship. walt harris team: play good against a good team and almost win and lose games against worse teams. College Coaches need a minumum of 5 years to produce results. Charlie wiess walked into a good situation. wansted walked into a team with no line players
i thought the goal was to get an education first, and be a winning football team second. :dunno:
in fairy tale land it is, in the real world it’s quite a bit different.
why do you even post shit like this? /yourself.
because i’m being serious!
sometimes these players need to take time off from football practice to study!
well you should know that collegate football players ahve to adhere by the schools guidelines for playing… it’s not like these kids are failing out of college and playing football… i think most schools require a 3.0+…
what makes you think football players need schooling? I don’t even see the basis of your statement, other than to cause shit. they are the smart ones using a sport to pay for college… did you ever go? do you know what it costs… fuck, i’ve been paying college tuition for 4 years and still owe a couple thousand. if i could use some sport to pay for it… then fuckin a.
they have hours when they have to study, one of penn states best linebackers has a 3.6 in finance…
way to misread what i said.
i was just saying what priorities are/should be, and from what I heard on Ellis Cannon’s show(not saying I have firsthand knowledge), Walt Harris put more emphasis on academics than people wanted him to.
this is what you said douchebag… as i’ve stated… the PREREQUISITE to play football is having a GOAL-MEETING education.
way to not STFU two posts ago
College football is such big time money that the school will look the other way because in the long run its gonna benifit the institution. All these things the players got in life to this point was because of football (for the most part) why make them study now. the ones that have enough brains will use their opportunirty to get a free top rate education and the stupid ones with either go on to the NFL or back to the ghetto and drive the malt liquor market.
:rolleyes:
meeting a goal and excelling are two different things.
you can excel yourself out of this thread?
zing! a FNF quote because I am DEFINITELLY a ricer
you excel at sucking balls.
Ellis Cannon is a clown. He stirs up the pot to get ratings. Ellis Cannon, last time i checked, wasn’t a football player under walt harris.
College players do have mandatory study halls. It takes a lot to do well in school and play ball but those kids that do that shit have been doing it their whole life IE: captain of the football team, president on national honors…you know those over achievers that made u sick and they still were drunken bums on the weekend.
no, but he probably has more information about players under Harris than we would.
why, because his sports talk show radio host qualifications are as follows:
PSU still rules the year Cutty. True story…
ruling what? nothing, they are #11 or 12 with no chance right now at a national championship. Right now they are in the same standing as pitt, run the table, go to the BCS game. Any ranking but #1 and #2 is a moot point.
