Alex Barbir officially gone
- Thread starter RUwoz
- Start date
Have we ever tried? Very few colleges try to nick the ball out of the end zone. Most try to angle it towards a corner to be caught inside the 5.
Funny I constantly see the ball going into the end zone, right in front of me, when other teams kick off against us. Year-after-year-after-team-after-team.
Half of you will forgive when he's drafted by the Giants and kicks the 60 yd winner with no time left sending the Giants to Super Bowl LIV against the Jets. The other half will forgive when he muffs a 25 yd chipshot with no time left giving the Jets a 30-28 Super Bowl victory!
Well.. that would be another Penn Stater.. seriously... just give up
Make it so.
The Word according to Alex Barbir: "Thou Shalt Honor Thy Commitments", (unless, of course, it suits you not to).
That isn't a knock against religion. It's simply the irony of someone who professes to be so faith driven, yet bails on a school at the last moment after the Rutgers staff did everything possible but bend over backwards to show he was viewed as a priority.
Hey, he can go wherever he wants, but I doubt this was in any way a case of guidance via "Divine intervention". -This was, I believe, purely a matter of Alex Barbir's own personal wishes.

Please put me back on ignore so I don't have to respond to you.
Last year we were kicked the ball 65 times. We returned 51 one of them, IIRC we had at least 2 or 3 that were kicked out of bounds. So we didn't return approximately 20% of the kicks sent our way. That's a pretty low percentage to be considered constantly isn't it? Let's not forget our kick returner was pretty well respected so he was probably kicked away from more than most.
What in the hell are you talking about? I'm not a Penn State fan. That's the most insulting thing anyone has ever called me.
I'll lay this out neatly for you: (1) The picture is William Riker, First Officer of the Enterprise. (Go watch the show on Netflix.) (2) One of our new recruiting targets for kicker is named Ryker. (3) "Make it so" is a line oft-directed at Riker by Picard.
Just trying to have a little fun; lighten the hell up. We lost a kicker (albeit a good one). We can get another.
(4) That actor's name is Jonathan Frakes, who is from Bellefonte, PA and went to Penn State.
Hate hate hate having state penn ever winning.
Reality, PK/P is the one position you can recruit nationally. Open scholarship is not end of world at this point.

For the record - after the sleep-over, the official visit to Michigan, the official visit to Baylor, and the schedule official visit to USC ...
- even monks in Tibet knew that Nordin had decided that he was NOT going to sign with PSU - he just has not officially broken the news
... sure, if your fiancee is on a Caribbean cruise with another guy - you can tell everybody that you broke the engagement ... once you found out ...
And for the record, he does not have an offer from Michigan. PSU had enough, pulled it and recruited another kicker. Spin it anyway you want. Those are the facts. We have a kicker who is a good kid. Chances are Nordin will not get a scholarship from UM. Therefore, he played a silly game and lost. UM was probably 1 and PSU 1a but in the end, he probably overplayed his hand and will settle.
