Jones “Consults JoePa” For Dunk Contest
“Hoops Fest” – the Blue-White- esque kickoff for the Penn State’s men’s basketball team happened this past Saturday. But you wouldn’t know that, because coverage of NIT Championship teams somehow falls behind snowball fights and dodgeball tournaments in priority.
Despite the low awareness of the event, there was a bright moment in the dunk contest, when Andrew Jones dressed up as “DrewPa.” There wasn’t a lot of photographic evidence online, but fortunately Youtube is available to confirm that, yes, it’s exactly what you’re thinking.
I can only hope that this will lead to a series of Clinton Portis-style characters from Jones. Penn State needs someone like Sheriff Gonna Getcha to fill those seats.

Gorman Abruptly Resigns
Head coach of the men’s soccer program Barry Gorman unexpectedly announced his resignation Monday. He leaves a legacy of 22 years of coaching and three Big Ten titles in his wake. Citing “personal reasons,” he has left the team to a nation-wide search for his successor.
“We expected Gorman to be there,” [rising Senior and Co-Captain Andres] Casais said of next season. “He was a father figure to us.”
Oof, that can’t feel good. The move isn’t completely out of the blue, as Gorman was periodically absent during the past few weeks without notice. But from all accounts, his intention to resign was only revealed yesterday. On the abandonment scale, this registers just slightly above “going to the store for some cigarettes and never coming back.”
