According to Shatel, Bo's talked to Penn State (can't tell who called who, or what was said). Shatel says we'd better get used to it. The only former coach we WANTED to talk to other programs was BC (sigh). Is this a little like your significant other batting eyes at the neighbor over the back fence? I suspect PSU broached the subject, not Bo. Others may feel otherwise.
Shatel says:
"David Jones of the Harrisburg, Pa., Patriot-News reports that NU coach Bo Pelini and Penn State officials spoke recently about the school's open football job. According to Jones, Pelini is not in the mix.
Pelini denied any contact with Penn State on Monday night. That's expected.
I've known Jones for several years. He's a respected journalist who has covered Penn State for years.
What I'm saying is, this looks solid (Jones wouldn't create something that isn't there). But what does it mean?"
