joe paterno

  • Question:-Hugh Heffner and Joe Paterno are about the same age, but who played the more important role in history?
    Hugh Heffer established the adult industry. Joe Paterno established college football where it is today. Twenty years from now, who would you look back to and say had a bigger role in our history.

    Answer:-hef of course



    mark k
  • Question:-Is this proof Joe Paterno is the classiest act in college football?
    All his players are devoid of talent, therefore they couldn't possibly be paid. Ergo Joe Paterno doesn't pay players. Class act.

    Answer:-Todd Blackledge was good.
  • Question:-Should Joe Paterno retire after this season?
    I am a huge Penn State fan and I am planning on going to college there, but I think Joe Pa should retire. He is too old to be coaching and he obviously has just lost the touch. He has so much talent on that team and he is basically just wasting it. Luckily, Austin Scott got kicked off the team, or Evan Royster would have never gotten a chance to play this year. Don't get me wrong Joe Paterno was a great coach but he should hand the job over to someone else!

    Answer:-If he wants to, that man has earned the right to choose how and when he leaves.
  • Question:-Does anyone know where I can find the video of Joe Paterno chasing down Dick Honig?
    It's a shame that video footage of football is hard to come by but I've been searching the internet to no avail for the 2002 Penn State Iowa game where Joe Paterno chases down Dick Honig. Does anyone know where to find this and or other great college football clips?

    Answer:-In 1002? There wasn't any video back then. But there was Joe!
  • Question:-Would it be fair for Penn State to remove Joe Paterno if the guy charged is convicted?
    Would it be fair for Joe Paterno to be kicked out of the door if he really was not aware what took place.

    Answer:-If they have proof that he had prior knowledge, he just might get the 'early retirement' treatment.
  • Question:-When is that selfish old geezer Joe Paterno going to hang it up?
    Look at the top teams in college football, look at their coaches and their energy level, then look at that old geezer Paterno. Now ask yourself if it is any wonder Penn State struggles.

    Answer:-When he dies probably
  • Question:-How many years does Joe Paterno have left in him?
    With the retiring of Bobby Bowden, how many more years do you think Joe Pa has left in him to coach?

    Answer:-As many as I want. My team still wins games and has a great incoming recruiting class. In all seriousness, I would say probably 2 more years. He'll be 83 in about a week or so. I think Bradley will take over.
  • Question:-What is Joe Paterno's record vs. Bear Bryant?
    With Penn State playing Alabama this weekend, it's a meeting between two programs that have two of the biggest coaches in college football history. I know Joe Paterno has more all-time wins, but in head to head match-ups who came out on top, and what was the record?

    Answer:-0-4
    12/31/1975vs. #4 Alabama#8Louisiana Superdome • New Orleans, LA (Sugar Bowl)ABC NationalL 6-13

    01/01/1979vs. #2 Alabama#1Louisiana Superdome • New Orleans, LA (Sugar Bowl)ABC NationalL 7-14

    1/14/1981#6 Alabama#5Beaver Stadium • University Park, PAABC RegionalL 16-31

    10/09/1982at #4 Alabama#3Legion Field • Birmingham, ALCBSL 21-42
  • Question:-Is it just be or are Bobby Bowden and Joe Paterno just college figures?
    They don't call plays like most coaches, they are laid back unlike most coaches. I think Paterno coaches more than Bowden because he talks to the players, but I don't see these two coach much at all. Maybe it's me, but it seems like Bowden just sits there in his FSU apparel and doesn't say much. I know they have been successful and the programs are stong, but are these guys figures, not coaches, or is it just me?

    Answer:-Joe isn't as involved as he used to be as far as play calling, but he still is very involved at practices. I would hardly call Joe laid back. He's forever yelling at the refs and talking with the players and other coaches on the sidelines.
    I don't watch FSU all that much, but I have noticed his laid back demeanor. The two of them are just waiting for the other to retire so they can be the all time winningest 1A coach. Bowden only has a game or two lead on JoePA.
  • Question:-Are all the busts that have come from Penn State proof of how good of a coach Joe Paterno is?
    Bear Bryant has Joe Namath and Kenny Stabler, Joe Pa had Todd Blackledge and Anthony Morelli.

    John McKay had OJ Simpson and Mike Garrett, Joe Pa had Kijana Carter and Curtis Enis.
    No, Timmy, the exact opposite.

    Answer:-No. This is COLLEGE Football, not the NFL. How does this have anything to do with how good of a coach he is? It isn't his fault that he's coached quite a few great College players that turn into busts once they reached the NFL. Coaches can only do so much to help the kids out when it comes to being ready for the NFL. It's not the College Coaches fault when the players don't perform in the NFL. Their main priority is to make sure their players graduate.

florida state football

  • Question:-Florida or Florida State football: which program is more popular in FLORIDA?
    I have a question for current (or former) Florida residents. Which college football program is more popular (or has a more dedicated fan following) in the state itself: Florida or Florida State? And why? Thank you!

    Answer:-Florida, because the Florida Gator has an orange sweater and is a bad ass.
  • Question:-Would the Florida State Football program be anywhere near what it is if Mr.Bobby Bowden never touched it?
    The Florida State football program would not even be anything if Mr.Bobby Bowden did not build it. that is just my view.

    What is your opinion on this?

    Answer:-Bobby Bowden put the entire state of Florida on the college football map when he went there. What he did to Florida State is similar, but not as significant as the turnaround of the Hurricanes in the 80s, though.
  • Question:-What do I need to do to bring an RV to a Florida State Football game?
    Is there a specific parking lot for RVs at Florida State? Do you need a permit? How do you get a permit?

    Answer:-Lots of Gas ;)
  • Question:-Anybody Excited About Florida State Football?
    With a new offensive coordinator, do you think Florida State can bring its football team back to the top 15?

    Go Noles!

    Answer:-All of these people are just hating because of what's going to happen. We might not when it all this year but in year 2 or 3 we are going to have the best recruits in the nation coming to play. Fisher and Amato are some of the best recruiters in the nation. Bobby will be there to win one more before he leaves then Fisher is going to take over. We are going to get a running game going and then it'll open more for the pass. Trickett is going to get the O line to open those holes and take the pressure off the quarterbacks. I'm not worried about the D because we reload every year. I'm confident that we will be in the top 10 and playing in a BCS game this year. If we were 8-4 and played Penn State in the Orange Bowl 2 years ago, then the sky is the limit.
  • Question:-How much would this Florida State signed football sell for?
    I have an official NCAA football signed by all of the 2009 starting defense and offense of the Florida State Seminoles.

    Answer:-Looks like $129.99 on up from auctions on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/2009-FSU-FLORIDA-STATE-SEMINOLES-team-signed-FOOTBALL-/330534519657
  • Question:-Do any sattellite radio providers broadcast Florida State University football games?
    I'm looking into buying a sattellite radio for my boyfriend who is a HUGE Florida State University fan. It's important that he get a provider that broadcasts all FSU football games. Is there a provider out there that does this? I'm having difficulty locating this information on XM or Sirius' sites.

    Answer:-why would you want to listen to them play anyways...lol 45-12 GO GATORS!!!!!
  • Question:-What Florida State Football Jersey Should I Get?
    I've been out of the loop for the last couple years for personal reasons...

    Any suggestions on what jersey I should get?
    Good call.

    Answer:-Since college players have a tendency to graduate and/or move on, I'd say pick a number you like because a year or two from now the player wearing it now will be gone. College players jerseys in stores don't come with a name for amateur status reasons.
  • Question:-What is your prediction on how Florida State football will do this year?
    they revamped the entire coaching staff and now have one of the best staff's in the country with the additions of Amatto and Fisher, but they have a BRUTAL schedule. With the schedule, they might have a worse year than last year, but im hoping for better.

    what does everybody think?
    i am about as big of an fsu fan as you will find, and im interested in more than beating florida, but if you think fsu has any chance of beating them at the swamp at this point, then you are smoking something better than my camel cigs!

    you might wanna re evaluate tim tebow, this kid is the real deal. i am still curious to see if he can drop back and throw the ball 30 times a game and be successful, but we havent seen anything that says he will not be good. i hate florida too, but they are gonna be stacked for many years to come.

    can we get some real speculation in here or are these the answers i am gonna have to choose from?
    wow...this guy says we will go 12-1! the chances of that happening are as slim as me winning the heisman next year. good try though. us losing to clemson and nc state had NOTHING to do with them knowing our plays. that is the weirdest, most basic thing ive ever heard. we just werent any good, face it. we open the season at clemson and that will be a very tough game. we play Alabama, who may be on the rise this year, @ Va Tech, @ Florida, @ Clemson, @ Wake Forest, @ Boston College, @ Colorado, and Miami and Maryland at home. There are 2 for sure games on the schedule. We could end up 3-9, or 4-8 with that schedule and you say we will go 12-1! haha. unrealistic fans are the best. i think we can be around 8-4 if we drastically improve, but that is a nasty schedule so who knows.

    thanks though

    Answer:-if they finish at .500 id say it was a good year...theyre in a rebuilding stage and have a tough schedule...
  • Question:-Where can I find authentic Florida State football jerseys to buy?
    With the number 9 or 4.

    Answer:-Ask Peter Warrick to go to Footlocker and get his special discount price.
  • Question:-What was the score of the Florida, Florida State Football game today?

    and who won?

    Gators Chomped Them!!!
