Here ya go, Joe’s life history up until Penn State:

(born Dec. 21, 1926, Brooklyn, N.Y., U.S.) American collegiate gridiron football coach who, as head coach at Pennsylvania State University (1966– ), was one of the most successful coaches in the history of the sport.
Paterno served in the U.S. Army in the final year of World War II before accepting an athletic scholarship to Brown University, where he studied English literature and played quarterback for the football team. Upon graduation in 1950, he intended to enroll in law school but was lured away when his former coach at Brown, Charles (“Rip”) Engle, became head coach at Pennsylvania State University (Penn State). After 16 years as Engle’s assistant, Paterno succeeded him in 1966.

He didn’t get any favors and he didn’t “know” anybody.

Now please give it a rest. The issue is what Joe knew and should have done since 2002.
