And one of us has the wrong information regarding who told Paterno. Everything I have read says the grad asst went to Paterno's home, not his father reporting it second hand.
That's not surprising given all the "reporting" that is going on.
Everything I have read says the grad asst went to Paterno's home, not his father reporting it second hand.
And most of what I've heard on ESPN has the dad telling Paterno. The SeeBS timeline someone linked to above has the dad and the GA going to Joe's house the day after the event.
Now maybe the Grand Jury report has testimony about the conversations with Joe and perhaps the GA and his father weren't pulling punches and telling Joe the straight scoop. But I'd like to know Joe's side of what exactly was told to him before I am willing to throw away everything good he's accomplished. But no one seems to be doing that heavy lifting and that is sad too.
