It kind of bugs me to hear ED talk about the NIT and make it sound like he only needs to be at .500 to get in. Specifically, during the press conference he was asked about playing 18 conference games as opposed to the old 16. Ed replied something to the effect of “Of course, it depends on who you play out of conference but maybe we would have two more wins and already be in the NIT.”

No Ed. That wouldn’t be enough. A .500 record isn’t likely to get anyone in and it certainly isn’t about to get Penn State in with their weak OOC schedule.

I have received reports that the audio is distorted at times. So far my limited technical skills have prevented me from determining exactly what the problem is. On my system, it happens when using Internet Explorer and is fine with Firefox, Opera, or Flock. However, others have reported problems using Firefox on their systems. At the moment I am baffled.
