Joe Pa has been at Penn St. since 1966. I don't think A&M made too many bowl appearances prior to '66, so that seems about right.

Seriously Casey, why does any of this matter to you? Get a life, dude, seriously. I don't try to disrespect you, so why do you always try to disrespect my teammates and me?

I wouldn't call it disrespect... Its proving a point, only to a point. JoePa is one of the most underpaid coaches in America... yet, he has, in his tenure, had more success than one of the major football institutions in one of the major football states in America... I'd like to see how Bobby Bowden matches up with SC

He is a good coach, but he's about to have another Bowl Loss...

I posted facts. No disrespect was intended. I said pretty crazy stuff. If I would have said it like this "haha jo pa is better than Aggy" then yes that would be disrespectful.

Well, it's always the same thing, and that is something that is negative about A&M, always. If it were a time to time thing, it wouldn't be a big deal, but he always has something to say about A&M, and it's never anything good about the program we have here. I guess it just gets kind of old after awhile.

the one interesting thing about him is his salary which is reported as 500k a year, that way below par

As g$$ would say "the numbers speak for themselves"
It's only negative if you take it that way. I see it as Jo Pa is very good coach over his tenure. I'm sure if it was someone else who posted it you wouldn't give a damn.

Yeah, but I put very little into what g$$ has to say most of the time. You're right though, if it were someone else, I wouldn't really care, they're pretty interesting facts by themselves, but I know that wasn't your reason for posting them.

A&M has its 2nd win in a row as of late against Texas, we're headed to a bowl game, and Joe Pa is WAY past his "prime" and is basically just a sideline decoration as he probably hasn't actually COACHED that team in 15 years. Ever seen Weekend at Bernie's? :D Besides...UT has ASU in their bowl game...and I keep hearing how "over-rated" ASU is from UT fans....we shall see.

I really haven't heard any UT fan say ASU is overrated. If anything, we all think we are going to lose and it won't be pretty.
I have, however, heard and seen tons of ASU fans say they will mudhole us. And given our team, that's not out of the realm of possibility.

Honestly from a completly netural point of view. Casey is a huge UT homer about as big as they come. But the only personal attacks and disrespect I see is you attacking and disrespecting him. Not the first time either

If UT shows up and plays mistake free ball, and Colt doesn't get rocked and rattled early..it should be...but if they get pressure on Colt and plant him once or twice good...it'll be a long day for UT. That is just my take from what I've seen from them this year...so no need to flame me. :)

This is a quote from a guy that does a Big XII blog. He's great in that he's unbiased and gives it how it is. "You gotta love a Longhorn fan. They escape by the narrowest of margins, flash you the hook 'em, then tell you how great they think they are. Well this week horns, it ends." That was in reference to the preview for the ATM game if I'm not mistaken. I don't care one way or another, but I just thought it was freakin hilarious.

I can't honestly speak for all Horns fans...but that is a very accurate description of my UT fan friends....and yes...it is amusing.

This guy's actually a Nebraska alum, and he ripped them left and right a lot. It's quite comical.
