2008-02-05T15:28:51Z

As LOI Day is upon us a simple question has come to mind that will likely help us explain Penn State's relative lack of recruiting success this year. Head Coach Joe Paterno has made exactly one off campus visit to a recruit this year (the publicity laden visit to Terrelle Pryor last week). Offensive Coordinator Galen Hall has made zero off campus visits to recruits this year.

Here is the simple question: Can anyone anywhere name ...
