Penn St used to be....

I dont follow the VB too much, but I do know that Penn St was on top of the VB world about
10-12 years ago. Seems that they won about 5 titles out 8 years or something like that, they
were totally dominant. While they are still good, Im just wondering what happened.? They were
like Alabama FB for awhile. I dont think they changed out coaches.

Not that long ago. They won back-to-back national titles in 2013 and 2014, and were in the final four in 2017.

They haven't completely disappeared by any means. Currently ranked #10. Part of the issue may be that a lot of the Big Ten is really good now -- there's a lot more competition (especially from Minnesota and Wisconsin). Penn State used to own the Big Ten, and then it was Penn State and Nebraska for a few years when NU first joined the conference.
 
I just went to their website, they won it all in 99, 07, 08, 09, 10, 13, 14, 6 titles in a 8 yr span, awesome

Nope, Russ Rose, a former NU asst, has been their HC for all their glory years. I notice that he is still old school using a clipboard to chart plays instead of a tablet as most coaches do now.
