PSU Football To Win Party At Best Buy, Possibly Game

Street and Smith’s Sports Business Journal has a rundown of all the loot bowl participants receive – it’s interesting to gloss over.

The Capital One Bowl doesn’t shower the players in gifts quite like the Rose Bowl did last year, but that isn’t to say that our guys aren’t cleaning up. Each player will get a ‘Party at Best Buy ($420 limit)’ – which I assume includes confetti and plastic packaging that is really hard to open – and a Timely Watch Co. watch.

If the players are disappointed by the thought of two gifts, they only need to look to the Sheraton Hawaii bowl, which literally only gives out a Hawaiian shirt.

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.”
