    Its the right move, the old PSU needs to be put to death any way possible

    I like the blue ribbons. Guess that only leaves a few that chose not to have the name on the back of the jerseys now.

    As of now, the names are just for this year because BOB wants people to see the names of the players who decided not to leave. We'll see if that becomes permanent.

    That is a classy move by BOB. Very classy

    Those guys deserve all the attention they get.

    They should make them a plaque or something... PSU uniforms are one of my favorites and seeing the names on the back is kinda cheesy IMO.

    Nice move, but I think you Penn Staters will NEVER forget the ones who stayed, they will always hold a place of honor. It would be awesome to have a banner in the stadium with those names, an honor roll.

  • I love the traditions in college football. That said, one of the traditions that I hate are schools that don't put the names of the players on the backs of the game jersey. Watching a team that I see once or twice a year it makes it much harder to follow who the players are without their names.

    I think it's more of a "we want the rest of the world to know the guys who stayed" mentality than "we want PSU fans to know the guys who stayed."

    Don't be an ass, you know damn good and well that the ones that deserve that are the ones that stay. We had some of our guys leave to, just as Colorado would under the same circumstances, just as Penn State had some leave. You forget about those.

    I see this is a sensitive subject for you - whining about players being poached, then poaching a PSU player, then patting the back of those that stayed at PSU to make yourself feel better.

    I understand. It's a great honor to step away from a long standing tradition to honor kids that show loyalty above and beyond what one would expect of these kids.

    Are you a social moron? Just what does Redd have to do with this thread about honoring kids that chose to honor their commitment and loyalty to Penn State? Me thinks you're just some jackass that takes joy in turning the knife.

    I'm pissed at your insensitivity to the spirit of this thread..

  • Hey Shav, what do you think about the change up?

    As an SC fan it would be weird seeing names on the back of our jerseys, even under similar circumstances.

    It will definitely be strange, but it's what the players and coaches wanted, so I support whatever they want. They're the ones who had to decide whether or not they wanted to be a part of this team, so they should get to decide what to wear. Many on our board are sour about it and think it ruins the tradition, but I'd rather the players have their way on this one.
