I was doing a bit of thinking over the past weekend and it occured to me that research was at hand. It occured to me that I couldn't think of a Penn State Quarterback being drafted in the NFL over the past 10 or so years. Well coincidentally, Jay's first year at the helm was 1999. Let's take a look at the draft years and the other Big Ten schools that produced Quarterbacks and compare the list to Penn State's...Here we go!
1999
Ohio State-Joe Germaine
2000
Michigan-Tom Brady
2001
Purdue-Drew Brees
2002
Illinois-Kurt Kittner
Ohio State-Steve Bellisari
Indiana-Antwaan Randle-El
2003
Michigan-Drew Henson
Wisconsin-Brooks Bollinger
Indiana-Gibran Hamdan
2004
Ohio State-Craig Krenzel
Wisconsin-Jim Sorgi
Michigan State-Jeff Smoker
Michigan-John Navarre
2005
Purdue-Kyle Orton
2006
None
2007
Michigan State-Drew Stanton
Ohio State-Troy Smith
2008
Michigan-Chad Henne
_____________________________________________________________________
Let's break it down...
THE Ohio State University- 4 Indiana-2 Illinois-1
Michigan-4 Wisconsin-2
Michigan State-2 Purdue-2
Hmmm...Interesting...I don't seem to see ANY PENN STATE QUARTERBACKS on that list. Let's just add this to the list of Jay's inept attempts at creating a solid program. I wonder why Tyrell Pryor didn't come to Penn State? Maybe it's because he knew he would never, ever, in a million years, be drafted! Don't you think that other coaches use this during recruiting? What a no-brainer...Jay just doesn't get it and never will.
Even Indiana has 2! Northwestern, Minnesota, Iowa, and yes...PENN STATE have none, we are in great company in the Big Ten! I really hope JayTARD becomes the next head coach so we can join those fine historic programs in all aspects of the game!
Oh yes, please don't forget about Michael Robinson of the 2006 draft, he went in as a running back...great job Jay.

TOP 10
Just imagine the world if Jay Paterno were to become the head coach of Penn State...here are a list of 10 things that would happen, I just happen to call them LOCK IT UP moments...
The Jay Paterno as Head Coach of Penn State Football Top Ten "LOCK IT UP" Moments
10. Weekly visits from the President Obama Administration
(Low level assistant to the assistant secretary of Agriculture or equivalent)
9. Each recruiting season, losing 4 out of 5 top WPIAL prospects to Ohio State, Pitt & Michigan
8. Lowest quarterback rating in the Big Ten, but the best 4th down conversion rating in Big Ten
7. Attendance declines 40% over the first 2 years from 107,000/per to 64,200/per contest
6. Penn State bowl performance begin to look like Notre Dame's (need I say more?)
5. Cyanide found in JayPa's Gatorade during first spring practice, Tom Bradley, Larry Johnson Sr., and Greg Schiano are all questioned by authorities
4. Joe Paterno speaks highly of his choice as successor, similar to the way he speaks of Temple, Akron, and Coastal Carolina programs, just prior to beating them 59-0
3. Penn State removes the two large upper deck seating areas at Beaver Stadium to better accommodate the "true die-hards" that show up for each Saturday's joke fest.
2. Bellefonte Area High school scrimmages Jay Paterno's squad in July of 2010. Penn State wins 14-0, both touchdowns are on interception returns by linebackers. Penn State musters 56 yards of total offense
And the Number 1 "LOCK IT UP" Moment under Jay Paterno:
1. On his death bed, Joe Paterno weakly states "Can that little prick", he passes away shortly thereafter. People take to the streets in mourning and anger at the devastation Jay has brought the program....he quickly flees town, but is later caught by four men in their early 30's. He is beaten and left for dead near Snow Shoe, no charges are filed.

United States of Liberalism
Check out Diane the Marxist Sawyer on ABC's Good Morning America Just listen to her questions to Joe Horn who killed two burglars stealing property from his neighbor. You can hear Diane the Dem. making the two criminals into the victims. You see, in Texas, you are entitled to Life, Liberty, and PROPERTY. This includes your own and your neighbors. Texas is a REPUBLIC, which closely follows the US Constitution, perhaps Diane would read up on this. Of course she won't, but I'm sure she has the United Nations treaties all memorized. Mr. Horn was completely in the right to confront the thieves, exactly why he was never charged with any crime.
The media is just another facet of America that should be labeled socialist. They are for a collective whole, not a person, not our rights, just more control by big government. I would love to hear Obama's take on this. He would probably shed a tear for the minority thieves, blame it on Bush's tax cuts and the war in Iraq and condemn Mr. Horn who did the right thing. Make this a lesson to future criminals that they work in a very dangerous profession, and if they come stumbling into my house they will be met with the same enthusiasm and Mr. Horn.

"Linebacker U" and booze!!
The former puke smelling, urine overflowing, awful Amberbock serving, SportsCafe has been purchase by our own LaVar. This is great! But what makes it even better is that the CDT is reporting it will be called "Linebacker U".
How great is that!?! The only problem I foresee is the line wrapping around and running into the line for Cafe 210 and in many of our drunken stumbles, entering the wrong establishment, but I digress...
"Linebacker U" is a great name and it's about time some of the local bars accept the football program into their names. All we have now is "Lions Den", which is good, but we need more! Adding to the culture that is Penn State football especially by a former player as beloved as LaVar is much needed.
I salute you Mr. Arrington and hopefully "Linebacker U" will be open for business both on the field and downtown this coming fall.

Jay Paterno Hard at Work, on your dime
Here is a comment posted by Jay Paterno, while supposedly working on a Friday in the athletic department.
By Jay Paterno Jun 20th 2008 at 10:02 am EDT
Joe--I hope you and your friends will feel free to e-mail me about football and I will talk any time you want. This is neither the time nor the place for these back and forths.Before I got involved in this campaign, I resolved that my commitment to the campaign would not come at the expense of my family or job obligations. What I do with my free time is up to me.For your information our offense was #1 in the Big Ten last year in the only two categories that we really look at: the key situations of Red Zone and Third Downs (and to a lesser extent 4th downs where we ranked #7 in the nation).When I have my own time--which is rare--I am certainly allowed to voice my own opinions about this country. I welcome your e-mails about politics and football so go to the Penn State web site and get my e-mail address and let's talk.
Take notice that Jayturd posted the comment at 10:02 AM on Friday, June 20, 2008. Must be "his own time". Most people I know that are employed by Penn State are working at 10 AM on a Friday. The QB coach is really fitting into the liberal lifestyle of not doing any work, and living the dream as a political blogger while the rest of us are doing our jobs, and paying a percentage of his State University salary. Since I'm forced into picking up part of the tab on this sad sack, I would rather have my QB coach and offensive coordinator working for the team, or writing a letter to a recruit or watching film of his players and opponents trying to get better. Further, this email shows how stupid Jayturd is, getting a chub for just leading the conference in red zone and third down conversions. What was the team's record last year. It's no wonder when you read all these articles with quotes from recruits you hear all these glowing words about Larry Johnson, Tom Bradley, Ron Vanderlinden, Mike McQueary, and even Dick Anderson, but you never hear Jay's name come up in those conversations. Jim Tressel's domination of the state of Ohio partly falls on the head of Jay Paterno who owns responsibility of recruiting Ohio for Penn State.
Jay Paterno's career is full of actions that are proven failures, but his latest actions are unacceptable, and in this latest case he has put his political activities before his job, which is to develop our quarterbacks, run an offense, and recruit. How are our quarterbacks getting any better by Jay's activities? How is this going to help us end the streak against the Wolverines? How many kids and their parents is he turning off by being so open about his political views?
Jay has a responsiblity to represent the Pennsylvania State University and it's millions of alumni. His job pays him hand over fist more than he's worth, and is funded by us. Jayturd's performance speaks for itself, but how much worse is it going to get if he is devoting more time towards getting the Mulatto Messiah elected.
