JoePa Calls Out the BCS Commissioners

People often give the Big Ten ‘tude for being old-fashioned, but at least one head coach in this conference is in favor of a playoff system.
Earlier today, Penn State’s Joe Paterno called the BCS commissioner’s reasons for saying no to a playoff “bogus.” Say JoePa, who will be turning 82 on his next […]

And no, I’m not talking about staff changes (although there are a few new hires that will certain strengthen the team). I’m talking about changes in the way Charlie Weis runs his program.
