No offense but if Hunter goes down good luck. Marchetti was the back up in waiting. The question will be how many changes to the offense to use Hunter’s wheels.

Yes, I have heard neither backup looked too hot in the Spring. The Mars Hill transfer (Romano) is understandable ... learning a new system, etc. The reviews I've heard on Marchitelli's spring performance aren't real hot. Out of fairness, the offense had several key players not participating. It sounded like both at least showed glimpses.Originally posted by Iupgh View Post
I can't imagine they are going to be real eager to let Hunter run much if they have a major concern with whomever will be his backup(s).
Needless to say, the cavalry is on the way. Sounds like Tort is going to add some real stud transfers in early May.Comment

Like most everybody else, I do not have first-hand knowledge of the situation. I do have a more optimistic point of view, though.Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View Post
As of now, I think we are loaded at QB. We got the most sought-after QB in the D2 transfer market. Behind him, I base my opinions of Marchitelli on the film I've seen of his pre-college days and his HS/prep accolades. He would be a great backup, at his point, IMO. Keep in mind the spring offense is a work in progress and the offense is matching up to a really good defense in practice. Romano is likely a little bit of a project at his point which does not mean he can't be a star in the future. Plus, I see IUP as being really proactive regarding transfers and if one leaves they will pick up somebody else.Comment

Duane Brown didn't sign with anyone yet? Kind of surprised.Comment

His 40 was terrible (I saw in the 4.6-range). That won't get a WR in to any camps. I suspect he'll catch on in one of the other leagues.Originally posted by Ram040506 View PostComment

A lot of guys would prefer they get a token camp contract so they can say they signed with an NFL team, but the longterm playing opportunities are with those other leagues. I know a PSAC guy who probably made $25k playing in that low rent arena league that had a team in Erie over several years.Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostComment

And while he was able to get open often, his route-running wasn't all that great. I was hoping he went ahead and played in the other leagues first to prove himself to the NFL. I do wish him well going forward.Originally posted by IUPbigINDIANS View PostComment

Why can’t the state authorize the money based on a public need?Originally posted by Fightingscot82 View Post
They throw money at a useless arena in the Mon Valley but we can’t set up its best public university with a medical school to benefit rural taxpayers.
Oh wait it’s IUP. The school they’ve been making jump through hoops since the mid 60’s…Comment

I know. Harrisburg is useless but now that the adults control the legislature and we have still have a rational adult as Gubner you’d think there’s be a chance but then I remember the Q Cult still controls the State Senate.Originally posted by iupgroundhog View PostComment

The Centre County Community College is about to commence a $700 million renovation project on The Erector Set.
They are hoping the state will contribute some funding. Are they effing kidding me? The state schools can't get a buck to upgrade our foosball fields but they think they should get money even though the state doesn't own the school.

Perhaps PSU agrees to host the PIAA football finals there as part of the deal (to justify state funds). That would be the ideal location. Great town, plenty of hotels, etc.Originally posted by IUPNation View PostComment
