The Day After Media Day!

OK, folks, plenty of copy today on the Nittany Lions, thanks to yesterday's Media Day event.

The day's central message?

I think this quote from Joe sums it up: "I just hope we understand this is a big season for us. We’re part of a tradition, and I don’t think anybody here just wants to let it go. We want to hang onto it."

Here's the rundown:

* Beth Hudson from the Allentown Morning Call had the best wrap-up of the day, and the headline from the Morning Call's copy desk says it all: "Still more questions than answers for PSU."

* The York Daily News calls 2005 "a watershed year."

* The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette says Penn State's young "speedy" receivers should help improve the offense. But the PG also reports that the offensive line remains a huge question mark.

* The Associated Press says Joe is asking for "patience" with his offense. No, Joe, we've been patient enough.

* The Scranton Times discusses the one thing that concerns Your Editor more than anything else about this team -- placekicking. It's a scary situation, folks.
