Did you see ESPN's footage of him yelling 'GET OFFA MY LAWN!!' at a
cameraman who was just doing his job? To the cameraman's credit, he
didn't tear the old fool's head off and just smiled while waiting for
him to get back to doing his job - watching Penn State play.

If that had been College Station, the cameraman woulda been run through
with a sword," said the SMU cheerleader.

If you aren't going to give any credence to those that have interviewed
him or interact with him daily, why would anything I say change your mind?


He's obviously a doddering old fool.

So it's the cameraman's job to disrupt pre-game warmups.

No, he always gives credit to Syracuse before playing them. Note the
similarity between his presser before last game and one from the early
1980s regarding SU. Some dude put it on Youtube. Joepa's the same.
