One of the 4 jobs I’ve always feared (along with OSU, Mich, and ND).

Seems like this is closer to happening than other Campbell rumors.

If it’s time, it’s time.  He stayed here about 8 years longer than anyone expected.  The job has been improved dramatically.  Hope he stays, but I wouldn’t begrudge him leaving for a job you can actually win a natty at, that’s also dramatically closer to his aging parents.

I’ve never heard a single anecdote of him being anything other than a good dude in his time here.  No banging coeds, no abusing players, no racist ramblings, no -insert shitty thing here- whatsoever.

Clearly not Penn State material. You have nothing to worry about.

It depends on what Penn State wants.  Campbell is very similar to Franklin in a lot of ways.  He’s an elite program builder that’s kind of a shitty in-game coach.  He also struggles with high expectations, and high profile moments.  Really, he’s perfect for a job like ISU where we’re thrilled with being consistently solid and have no pretenses of being elite.

He will win a lot more than he loses, but that’s not been enough for the pederasts.  I’d be shocked if he’s still employed there in 5 years.

unless Campbell just wants to Ferentz his way to retirement with Iowa State this is probably his best shot.

I’d rather spend the rest of my life as the king of Ames than go to a place where you’ll always live in Joe Puh’s shadow and the halls are haunted with rhythmic slapping. Fuck Penn State forever. 


Is state college an upgrade over Aimes?!

Does Penn State have an easier path to the playoffs than Iowa state?

Whether or not State College is an upgrade, it’s like a 3-4 hour drive from he and his wife’s hometown.  Ames is like 13 hours away.  Pretty sure his mom has battled cancer recently too.

Outside of the money and prestige, those factors are likely weighing heavily.

Yeah the only bad thing I've even heard of is that time he confronted a fan who was yelling at him as he walked away from a loss (I think it was Kansas or KSU). And in the emotion after a tough game that's nothing really. Not a great look mostly because it gives your detractors something to latch onto, but not a big deal and certainly if that's the only issue in that much time somewhere then you love that as a program.

Penn State sounds like a drunk guy in the bar just before closing looking for someone to go home with.

Or like the guy who rage-quits his job thinking he is a top industry talent and then one month later, calls back and begs to return after no one offers him a job. 

And can people stop posting gratuitous images like this? It's not appropriate and hurts our attempt to be become a legitimate site.

Leaked audio of the Penn State AD having a meeting with some of his players about the coaching search and if Terry is or is not a real candidate. This dude is unhinged. 
 

And no wonder every coach is turning him down.

I’ve always thought Campbell is the perfect coach for Penn st. I think he does well. Biggest question mark will be can he get 4-5 star guys like they want to come play for him. 

when you got 5 star culture you don't need anything else...

What falls for being a good dude is just doing what one is supposed to do?

I mean, at Penn State, not fucking kids or covering it up is good enough.

I question the legitimacy of this printed version as said price is 2x what is acceptable on this site. Tree-fiddy or GTFO.

I've been to State College.  It's a shithole.  Other than the stickiness of the floor at Paddy's, Ames is a far better place.

Matt Campbell did it with far less resources to be fair, on the other side he's also got much more of a regular schedule to compete against now 

Still realistically the best hire PSU could have made, though i'd preferred if they had stolen Elko for the memes

Okay, you people are not taking this seriously. PLEASE stop re-posting gratuitous images like the one below with its inappropriate word-play. We are trying to get funding and they are damaging our credibility.
