The Nittany Turkey

Primarily about Penn State football, this is a tale told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Devlin to Transfer

Posted on Written by

Scout.com’s Fight On State web site is reporting that the Nittany Lions’ #2 quarterback, redshirt sophomore Pat Devlin, will transfer to another school before next season. Apparently, he has already left the program, which would make Cianciolo the backup for Daryll Clark for the Rose Bowl game against USC. A further issue is that Cianciolo is graduating, and that leaves Clark as the only quarterback on scholarship for 2009.

The report did not state where Devlin is heading, but FOS states that sources claim he’s looking toward the FCS (formerly known as Division I-AA).

Head coach Joe Paterno is expected to comment on the situation Friday, during Bowl Media Day.

More news as I get around to reading it, or when it happens, whichever comes last!

Hail to the (Arrested) Lion

Posted on Written by

Our favorite ugly mascot might not make the Rose Bowl trip. ???? ??? ???? The Daily Collegian reports that James Sheep, who wears the Nittany Lion outfit at Penn State games, was arrested on campus on November 22 at 3:15 AM and charged with DUI. As you might recall, Sheep had to report for duty a mere 10 hours later to perform his mascotitudinal function in the Moo U. ?????? ?????? ?????? game. The officer who made the arrest had observed that Sheep was driving a clown car overloaded with other drunks piled on top of each other and obstructing the driver’s view.

This is a great switcheroo: a Sheep in lion’s clothing who is responsible for generating spirit is arrested for consuming spirits instead. ???? ??? ???

Oh, the humanity!
