  • The Following Players Comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set
    COLLEGE FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST 2 SET ROSTER The following players comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set. See below for a more detailed explanation of new symbols on the cards. 1971 NEBRASKA 1971 NEBRASKA 1972 USC 1972 USC OFFENSE DEFENSE OFFENSE DEFENSE EB: Woody Cox End: John Adkins EB: Lynn Swann TA End: James Sims Johnny Rodgers (2) TA TB, OA Willie Harper Edesel Garrison Dale Mitchell Frosty Anderson Steve Manstedt John McKay Ed Powell Glen Garson TC John Hyland Dave Boulware (2) PA, KB, KOB Tackle: John Grant Tackle: Carl Johnson Tackle: Bill Janssen Chris Chaney Jeff Winans Daryl White Larry Jacobson Tackle: Steve Riley John Skiles Marvin Crenshaw John Dutton Pete Adams Glenn Byrd Al Austin LB: Jim Branch Cliff Culbreath LB: Richard Wood Guard: Keith Wortman Rich Glover Guard: Mike Ryan Monte Doris Dick Rupert Bob Terrio Allan Graf Charles Anthony Mike Beran Bruce Hauge Allan Gallaher Glen Henderson Bruce Weber Monte Johnson Booker Brown George Follett Center: Doug Dumler Pat Morell Don Morrison Ray Rodriguez John Kinsel John Peterson Mike McGirr Jim Stone ET: Jerry List CB: Jim Anderson TC Center: Dave Brown Tom Bohlinger Brent Longwell PC Joe Blahak Marty Patton CB: Charles Hinton TB.

  • Grand Experiment of Joe Paterno
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE THE GRAND EXPERIMENT OF JOE PATERNO By: STEPHEN CIARROCCHI SPRING 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Finance with honors in Finance Reviewed and approved* by the following: Robert Novack Associate Professor of Supply Chain and Information Systems Thesis Supervisor James Miles Professor of Finance, Joseph F. Bradley Fellow of Finance Honors Adviser *Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College i Abstract This thesis centers around the central idea of the forty-six years of Joe Paterno’s head coaching career at Penn State: The Grand Experiment. Paterno believed that a school could have quality academics and quality athletics without sacrificing one for the other, and also teach young men the skills necessary to succeed in life. The study goes into the history of Joe Paterno and why he believed in The Grand Experiment. The Grand Experiment was the culmination of Joe Paterno’s upbringing, and by understanding his history, only then can one truly understand what The Grand Experiment meant to him and why it was so important to be a success. This study also looks at a comparison of Penn State football to Alabama, Ohio State, and Northwestern football, using metrics such as wins, bowl wins, national championships, graduation rates, Academic Progress Rates, and All-Americans to show the success of Penn State football relative to these other programs. This study also plans on using stories regarding how Joe Paterno helped shape the lives of the young men that came through the program.
