Your Re-Introduction with the One Stop PSU Place

Let me introduce myself -- again.

The final touches of getting a book prepared for print is tedious and time consuming. From last-minute editing changes to index work, the newest novel on Penn State football consistenly was a test in patience.

But it has prevailed. I don't have an official release date yet, but sometime between Thanksgiving and the 1st of December feels like a perfect accurate date.

At that time, the Amazon.com link will cease to exist in this space, although I'm sure you can purchase a cheaper used version if that's what you want to do (fine by me).

It will be replaced by a link directly from our publisher and my bosses at Sports By The Numbers. By purchasing the book at that link, you will not only be purchasing a historical glance at one of college football's predominant programs -- or a great holiday gift -- but you will be donating to THON -- the largest student-run philanthropy in the NATION with proceeds from the 46-hour dance marathon going directly to kids with cancer.

You can make a difference, in fact that will be the name of a campaign I will be running through this blog, and hopefully my Sports By the Numbers friends will pick up on, until February's THON at Penn State's Bryce Jordan Center.

The kinks are being worked out, but you will be the first to know.

Until then, this space will be seriously overloaded with Penn State football opinions, press conferences, press releases and the overall state of Nittany Nation -- a somber one I will touch on later this evening.

It also will be the up-to-the-minute look at every radio interview, newspaper article and much more dealing with the book, which you can purchase by clicking on the image to the right.

WE ARE PENN STATE!
