    DB's are a dime a dozen. QB's flock as soon as they aren't named a starter. Lineman that are good, don't leave or only go up in division. Ask any coach in the PSAC how hard it is to get a good accomplished DT or OL.

    I wholeheartedly disagree with you.

    This isn't a secret, but the absolute hardest thing to "buy" in the portal is DL/OL that are really good. Our best OL/DL are going the other way, and if they are a good to decent OL/DL at that level, they don't go down to D2. For shopping, the best that they are going to do is poach from one of the other D2 schools which could still net a great player.

    LB is also one of the easier positions to recruit and develop. So many tweeners end up at that size, almost would seem like a waste of a "buy."

    The last Tort Show of the year was quite entertaining.

    Some highlights:

    * The official is still being blamed for the ESU debacle

    * Tort is about spent on missing XPs

    * At worst, they should be 8-2 instead of 5-5 (and possibly 9-1)

    * Tort thinks (I agree) Karst learned a lot in his 4 weeks watching.

    * Likely buying a LB and DL(s) in portal

    * Projecting at least 20 seniors next year

    Wait till you see what the squash team got out of the transfer portal ...
    Maybe with IUP improving in CC we’ll finally take that away from youse in the future.

    It's not. Nobody cares about those sports.

    This shiz won't last forever.

    Realistically, Tort should have won by 24+


    With this group ... A win is a win


    Imagine if Captain Timeout and the Extra Points didn't spot them 14

    The CIA should show the Clarion vs. IUP game tape to terrorists. If that doesn’t make you do anything to make the excrement show stop, I don’t know what would. Watching this is Spain but the “S” is silent. This is just torture to watch. #AllIn2FireTort

    something to be said for that unless its senior day. If the season is gone, and no offense it is, working underclassmen in makes a ton of sense. You don't want them blown off the ball and getting shell shocked and discouraged, but with the 3 game redshirt limit and the transfer portal plus experience gained there are multiple reasons to play the younger guys.
