Training camp started Monday

Thursday was media day at Beaver Stadium. Training camp started Monday. The countdown is under way. The Jerry Sandusky scandal, its complicated aftermath and the NCAAsanctions are history, too. As O'Brien has continually preached, nothing good can come from looking back. It's become his theme. And it's the only productive way to attack the reality of their situation. The only certainty, going forward, is that they're in this as one. Because they chose to.

"I should have charged admission," is the way the former New England Patriots' assistant opened his press conference. Then he got serious. Because he has an unenviable job. And this is merely the beginning.
