From my CFB board. Guy claims this email is from a former PSU player who lives in University Park and has ties to the Athletic Dept.

Crazy Joe going rogue.

Joe could be gone as head coach by the close of business today. He will not remain quiet, as the university trustees and lawyers are demanding him to do. Cancelling the press conference will not silence him. He will get his version of what went on out there, and the lawyers be damned. He cannot survive this, and it might end today with him being fired for insubordination. He will not go quietly into the night, and if he takes down everyone, so be it."

It's definitely over, but Joe will fight to the death and not go out gracefully. In his eyes, he is innocent and he's not going to resign in disgrace, or go away quietly. People don't want to believe it, but this could end today or tomorrow, but certainly ends at some point. The university is worried to death about legalities only. Joe is worried about his legacy...only. You think it's ugly now? It will get much, much worse. Joe is done. McQueary is done. In college football forever. I feel bad for the current players, but like at every big-time school, the players are hired slugs that do what they're told to do. Win games. And keep your mouth shut. It was that way when I played there and that's how it is everywhere. No different in this case."

It ends in the next 24-48 hours is my truest feeling. I'm being told he will not coach this game this Saturday. He will not resign, and they're working on a plan to fire him if necessary. And I believe it absolutely will be necessary. I'm positive he will not resign, nor admit any ounce of guilt. This is the only fight he cannot win, but he doesn't see it that way. Nor does he care. He will go out with guns blazing, not shrink away in shame."

      Edge Rushers

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      Super raw, not sure he is worth a top 10 pick.  Primary a pass rusher.  A bit like Burns, very fast athletic but doesnt always follow the play.  His highlights look good but when you watch him play you can see he is just raw and needs to develop

      Personally, I am not sold on Bryce yet--and I do not think anyone is saying they are, but I don't think Ward is on table when we draft anyway.  Not even sure if I would rather have him than one of the later QBs.  I see a lot of potential in Allar, Nussmeire, Rourke, and even Hamilton from Ohio State--Milroe is intriguing, but I am not sure he is an NFL QB.  Ewers is that sleeper who falls and becomes a solid starter. I think that we sign a veteran who has played and we draft one of these project QBs. To your point:  With that in mind, I think you have to take QB off the table in round 1, and if Bryce can string 4-5 games like KC together, we still need to draft a QB in round three or so---I really think Rourke is a great fit for this offense--he is accurate and gets the ball out quickly---he impressed me vs OSU.   Reason?  I think we may have a tough decision to make about Bryce in 2 years--will he be worth $60m?  That decision is a lot easier if you have been grooming a backup for 2 years who can play. In round 1: I am hoping for PSU's edge Abdul Carter In round 2:  I would like to see us grab a DT who can rush the passer.  Walter Nolen of Ole Miss is versatile and a bit raw. I think he could be an excellent complement to Brown. In round 3:  I would love ILB Danny Stutsman from Oklahoma.  He is a beast. With 11 picks, I would package our 4th rounders to move up into the third round and take a QB.  At the moment, I think Rourke is trending upward and he has the skills Canales seems to want in a QB.  Quick processor, quick release. I would use the fifth rounders on OL.  I know that I left out WR--however, we are getting Thielen back, XL will be improved, Coker will be improved, and Moore has been surprisingly good.  Sanders (TE) has been more than expected in the passing game.  I think we need D more than WR, and maybe we can get a veteran WR to sign or find a hidden gem late.

      Wouldn't be surprised if he starts a couple Jets games this year with the way the Rodgers thing is going. Giants fans are pissed they didn't keep him lol. He might actually have a little bit of a market.
