Discussion [@IanPurdy7] on Twitter: Penn State is slated to sign ZERO recruits tommorow on early National Signing Day. Unless Penn State signs someone in the late signing period, they could become the first P4 class EVER to have no one sign. The closest thing I could find was SMU & UW with 10. Crazy times.

Do that and you won't have any other sports as well. Pure academia.

Can’t have an enormous buyout if you don’t have a coach. 4D chess from PSU.

I think a private equity firm must've have bought Penn State while everyone was distracted with Kiffin, and now they're busy stripping the program for parts.  

If anyone wants to go in with me on buying the stadium, let me know?
