Dear @PennStateFball, @PennStateFball, and delusional PSU fans telling other fans to “shut up” and “let Matt Campbell build,” and coming up with every excuse in the book for the inexcusable, Here’s a list of the new, first full-year P4 head coaches and the amount of P4 wins + ranked wins they have. There are only two HCs on the list who have 0 P4 and ranked wins: Penn State: Matt Campbell P4 wins: 0 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 1 chance) & Michigan State: Pat Fitzgerald P4 wins: 0 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 2) —— Here’s everyone else: VA Tech: James Franklin P4 wins: 3 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 0) - Oklahoma St: Eric Morris P4 wins: 3 Ranked wins: 1 (out of 2) - Stanford: Tavita Pritchard P4 wins: 1 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 2) - Auburn: Alex Golesh P4 wins: 3 Ranked wins: 1 (out of 2) - Arkansas: Ryan Silverfield P4 wins: 1 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 3) - Florida: Jon Sumrall P4 wins: 3 Ranked wins: 2 (out of 3) - LSU: Lane Kiffin P4 wins: 3 Ranked wins: 2 (out of 3) - Kentucky: Will Stein P4 wins: 4 Ranked wins: 2 (out of 3) - Kansas State: Collin Klein P4 wins: 1 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 1) - Cal: Tosh Lupoi P4 wins: 2 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 1) - Iowa State: Jimmy Rogers P4 wins: 1 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 3) - UCLA: Bob Chesney P4 wins: 5 Ranked wins: 1 (out of 1) - Michigan: Kyle Whittingham P4 wins: 2 Ranked wins: 1 (out of 2) - Ole Miss: Pete Golding P4 wins: 4 Ranked wins: 3 (out of 4) - Utah: Morgan Scalley P4 wins: 4 Ranked wins: 0 (out of 0) —— In conclusion, you are disrespecting and wasting Penn State fans’ time and money. The ones who know what the program is capable of with the resources at your disposal are sick and tired of it. A bulk won’t be at the rest of the home snoozers. You continue to be incompetent with the decisions you make, and refuse to move on from the “old school” way of doing things. It’s disgracing the program and holding it back. It must be rectified. Now.

Maryland is going to get serious and hire a real football coach before PSU aren’t they?

Yep. This is my prediction. @GoPSUsports will refuse to cut bait and go down an untenable path instead of facing reality and investing in him now, and Michigan is going to fire Whittingham in the next year or two and hire him while laughing at how stupid PSU is while PSU continues the non-existent build and lose him forever. PSU will then fire CMC 4-5 years from now and then hire another “do more with less,” “blue-collar” guy instead of the next flashy hire and repeat the same cycle. That’s what PSU does. PSU needs a miracle here.

UPDATE: The 2026 season is the 6th season this century that Penn State has suffered from a 4+ game Big Ten losing streak: 2003--6 game losing streak L vs. #24 Minnesota (14-20) L vs. Wisconsin (23-30) L @ #18 Purdue (14-28) L @ #16 Iowa (14-26) L vs. #8 Ohio St (20-21) L @ Northwestern (7-17) Streak snapped vs. Indiana (52-7) 2004--6 game losing streak L @ #20 Wisconsin (3-16) L @ #18 Minnesota (7-16) L vs. #9 Purdue (13-20) L vs. #25 Iowa (4-6) L @ Ohio St (10-21) L vs. Northwestern (7-14) Streak snapped @ Indiana (22-18) 2014--4 game losing streak L vs. Northwestern (6-29) L @ Michigan (13-18) L* vs. #13 Ohio St (24-31, 2OT) L vs. Maryland (19-20) Streak snapped @ Indiana (13-7) 2020*--5 game losing streak L* (#8) @ Indiana (35-36, OT) (PSU actually won) L (#18) vs. #3 Ohio St (25-38) L vs. Maryland (19-35) L @ Nebraska (23-30) L vs. Iowa (21-41) Streak snapped @ Michigan (27-17) 2025--6 game losing streak L (#3) vs. #6 Oregon (24-30, 2OT) L (#7) @ UCLA (37-42) L vs. Northwestern (21-22) L @ Iowa (24-25) L @ #1 Ohio St (14-38) L vs. #2 Indiana (24-27) Streak snapped @ Michigan St (28-10) 2026--currently on a 4 game losing streak L (#13) vs. Wisconsin (20-24) L @ Northwestern (13-34) L vs. #19 USC (23-31) L @ Michigan (18-21) When will the streak snap (if at all)? This is the 3rd time in the 2020s PSU has had a season with a 4 game Big Ten losing streak. PSU has had back-to-back seasons with a 4 game Big Ten losing streak since the 2003-2004 seasons, which were within the affectionately-called "Dark Ages" era. Disgraceful. Again: This can't happen at Penn State. It's inexcusable. Fans deserve answers for why @GoPSUsports continues to hold the program back.

“I don’t want Penn State to get Chesney because they’d have a serious coach for once”

Matt Campbell is fucking boring to death. Last person this stupid program should’ve hired. He’s sucking the life out of Penn State football and isn’t attractive to big time recruits. Hearing him speak old-school philosophical world salad shows he has zero clue. That’s a problem. He’s putting the fanbase to sleep and lessening interest for the first time. Re-energize and awake the fanbase and hire Chesney this offseason. Get it done, @GoPSUsports.

Through the first 4 Big Ten games this season, PSU has only amassed 300 rushing yards. This is the 4th worst start to conference play rushing yards-wise this century (bottom 10 out of 27 seasons): 27. 2004--160 yards (4-7 reg. season record) 26. 2014--184 yards (6-6 record) 25. 2001--294 yards (5-6 record) 24. 2026--300 yards (? record, currently 3-4) 23. 2003--415 yards (3-9 record) 22. 2021--428 yards (7-5 record) 21. 2010--449 yards (7-5 record) 20. 2006--511 yards (8-4 record) 19. 2013--525 yards (7-5 record) 18. 2023--562 yards (10-2 record) Reg. season record ceiling in the Bottom 10: 10-2 (not possible this year) Reg. season record floor in the Bottom 10: 3-9 Surprisingly, half of the Bottom 10 are not from the "dark ages" and sanction eras

This can't go on for 3 seasons. It can't go on for 1 season. It's over. I don't care how you do it, Campbell must go. If you are a PSU fan defending this, you cannot be taken seriously anymore.

You can't make this stuff up. You can't. It's a laughingstock. And people wonder why I've been persistently vocal.....

This is a deeply unserious athletic department and football program. Does Steve Jones do this still? If so, you know it's going to be a sanewashing "woe is me, I believe in you guys" session with applause in the background. Believe it or not, it's actually not even fair to Rocco to keep rolling him out like this.

There’s no greater example of this than Chip Kelly leaving his head coaching position at UCLA for a coordinator position at Ohio State

I said Penn State was plagued by top-bottom incompetence…

These losers literally claim to watch the same game we did on Saturday, where Michigan benched their starting QB and gathered enough of a spark to win, whereas PSU’s QB single-handedly lost them yet another game and yet want you to “stfu.” All they have is “stfu,” because they have no substantive defense for what is indefensible at this juncture. Fanbases like OSU’s or UM’s demand accountability, where PSU’s fanbase is fractured in doing so because some are content with being old school.
