OT: Urban Meyer hiring JayPa to his staff???
Well, Jay at least expressed interest in a job.
Unfortunately for the rest of the B1G, Urban did not hire Jay.
This letter is pretty damn sad.

Damnit Jay, learn how to write.
What a douche bag. He can't make enough money pimping out his dad's legacy with the joepa beer and assorted books. So are penn state fans not throwing money at the paternos anymore?
Finally, urbz did the right thing!
I dont think you have to worry, because he's a terrible coach.
Trying to defend the legacy of somebody who spent the better part of a decade protecting and enabling a known child molester will do that to you.
Even if it's your dad.
Interesting. I've never seen an OP answer the question posed by his own title.
We should have a hall-of-fame for worst thread titles. This would be in my top 10.
the penn state molest-me lions are moving to ohio.

If he wants to hire someone from psu then let it be the big redhead. IMO he got screwed over more than any of them. I do not approve of the way he handled the shower incident btw. Neg away if you must but I sort of felt bad the way it all went down on him.
I don't think OSU's monster run in DL play and recruiting is a concidence.
Besides, what did he ever do at Penn State, coaching wise, that was all that great?

label him a piece of shit. Who cares how much more he knew?
Jay is the coach that everybody made fun of for generally not being good, and Scott is the fat one in the sport coat who made all the huffy public statements defending his dad. Right?
JayPa's singular achievement at Penn State was that year he custom-loaded their playbook into NCAA (IIRC) 2005 or 6 for their quarterbacks. And it sort of worked.
Because he didn't seem all that important for just about anything else.
Serious question: did Jay Paterno develop QB's during his 12 year career at PSU? Matthew McGloin?
McGloin was Bill O'Brien.
He's a douche and needs to find a different line of work other than coaching and something beyond 409 trinket sales.
Sorry, my response was meant for somebody who was making excuses for JayPa.
His writing is like kitty litter rubbing my eyes. Couldn't bear to even try to read it.
Wonder how long it took Urbz - or more likely someone else - to decipher what that chicken scratch actually said. Without the cheat notes I don't think I could have.
If you have an mIive log on I think you can post on Penn live using the same log on. I use the one from Penn Live to log on to mlive.
That after somewhat needlessly pointing out Jay's errors.
I dunno...I sort of feel bad for this guy. Having been laid off and unemployed in 2009 & 2010 I have alot of empathy for people who can't find work.
Whether or not he is a good coach may be part of the issue but his name isn't helping him either. No clue what he's like as a person but hope he can find some meaningful work at some point.
not regarding his career. He only got the job he had through nepotism. He didn't work his way up and was never considered a good coach. If he wants to continue in coaching, he needs to gain a little humility and go to a lower level. He's out of touch with reality if thinks schools like OSU should be interested.
I have more sympathy for him on a personal level, however poorly he's dealt with his father's legacy.
Step one in finding a job is probably to not mention his father in everything he does. That letter is ridiculous. "My father had a lot of respect for you, and so do I." Who the fuck says something like that?
Who says stuff like that? Someone accustomed to saying stuff like that.
