It's a Cop-Out: Why Many Penn State fans are completely wrong to Blame the Nittany Lions' Problems on Recruiting.

"I'll tell you why Penn State can't win more games, we can't land four and five-star recruits anymore."

I love that reasoning, not because it's a good argument, but rather because it's just so ridiculous to blame what's been going on at Penn State on recruiting. I want to take some time today and run down two big holes in the "we can't recruit anymore" argument. One, star ratings mean NOTHING after signing day. Two, Penn State's had plenty of dynamite recruits, and one class in particular, which fell flat on their individual and collective faces.
