Who would have thought that Paterno was a bigger POS than Bobby Bowden?...
Jock sniffing scumbag ping!
Paterno is a scapegoat for the PSU Administration who should have been responsible for Sandusky. It is ridiculous to say that an 80 year old football coach is responsible for the HR of a major state university. As much as the university milked Paterno for all the fame and money he brought to the school, its crazy to say that he should not have been supported with an administration team to make sure that everything off the field was managed properly.
There are lots of examples of football coaches, even very popular ones having failings in other areas. And besides he was one year from an announced retirement.
what went on was serious business. a career ender...covering for it is also a career ender. paterno should have known this. his failure to handle the situation when he became aware of it is costing him. sad, but it has to be what it has to be.
Paterno?? He knew He let the big donors get what they wanted and closed his eyes, ears and mouth while Sandusky supplied boys to them.
Someone needs to explain that student newspapers matter to no one, except those who publish it.
Erase every memory him. He was a scumbag that enabled a child molester to prey on children for decades.
