The Lions' Pride

Guess he's never heard of Wes Welker before. With all the emphasis that has been put on the TE position lately, it must have scared him away. Oh well.

In my opinion...

DOB - huge loss.
MM - fairly substantial loss.
RS - eh...not that big of a deal. Easy spot to fill elsewhere.

man, that coach couldn't wait to spill the beans.. so much for Ryan getting his moment in the spotlight..

Wow -- nice of his coach to make the decision public before the announcement - that is terrible (and this is the guy that advised him not to commit to PSU and look around).. Doesn't seem like a guy that has Ryan's best interest at heart..

Good luck to him.. Consider me shocked at the sudden turnaround..

Wow. I am surprised. I hope for his sake mom was right.

Not gonna lie, if this is true then his coach is a scumbag.
Switzer was ready to commit to PSU a while ago, then his coach stopped him and told him to "take his time," but then after one visit to UNC, he doesn't have a problem with Switzer making a decision.... but better yet, knowing that Switzer is extremely excited to make his announcement on his own terms, his coach goes out and tells the paper his decision (if true) the day before his announcement?

Like Espresso said, it doesn't seem like this guy has Ryan's best interests at heart, and instead just doesn't want to have his player go to Penn State after what happened.

Because there is more to life and college than football.

Kids couch is a douche! Also, a lot of folks on this board are making more out of this than they should. What is he, like a *** star?

Thanks again Jerry. You piece of sh*t.

Switzer is SO small his only chance to play would be an exact Wes Welker clone! What better way than at PSU. At any other school the chances of him seeing the field drop very quickly.

He's 17. His family is a bit older and wiser. Everyone has to make the best choice that fit their own priorities, and it's everybody's perrogative to do so freely. Penn State did all they could, and in the end he chose a place where he felt he'd be happier and help set him up for the rest of his adult life.

As a PSU fan, I'm happy with the effort and execution of my own school. There's no scoreboard in this one to indicate if you're winning or not. It just comes down to a single choice.

This coach owes some money to the douchebag jar.
