I'm not going to say the Penn State HC hire will end up being bad, but if you were to script a bad outcome, this would be the storyline.

Nothing better for a sports agent than a coach getting fired

congrats on your $40 million raise!
The best one in here is Rhule. Signs an extension he didn't earn only because he went to school there. Promptly finishes the regular season 1-3, only beating out a coachless UCLA. And finishes it off with the second worst recruiting class in the Big Ten, only ahead of Penn State.

The way it's going, you may get it.

Hell yes, I want to move to Happy Valley.  Sounds like an alright place to coach a couple of games and then retire early.

It's a strange, strange place.

If the rumors about them zeroing in on Daboll are true, what a hilarious outcome.  Can a very successful coach cause you think you should be winning national titles...only to hire a NFL coach who flamed out spectacularly and got chopped mid season.  I assume Terry Pegula has a hand in it given he knows Daboll from his time with the Bills, but sheesh.  Though, to be fair, Pegula has done a great job owning the Bills and is the godfather of Penn St hockey which has turned into a solid D-1 program from a club sport in less than decade.

I saw buzz about Willie Fritz, but that seems like it turned out to be false.  That would be a thoroughly unsexy hire but maybe the best that's been rumored.  He's more of a southern guy, but what an absolute winner.  Already fixed Holgerson's mess at UH in just 2 years and the stocked pantry he left at Tulane got Sumrall the UF job.

Rumors are that Matt Campbell might be interviewing there, as well as Jeff Hafely. Hafley was hired by PSU's AD at Boston College.

Daboll spent one year in college as the OC for one of Alabama's championships with Tua. I could have coordinated that offense.
