re: joe paterno is older than scotch tape

He has 2 years left on his contract. I also wouldn't be surprised if 2011 was his last, but I seriously doubt it will be announced that away in advance. I'm pretty sure he's against the whole "farewell tour" concept and wants the focus to be on the players.

That said, I suspect he'll get a contract extension and announce that he's stepping down at the end of that season.

However, he's healthy. He's sharp. And he's still effective. If he wasn't, he wouldn't enjoy it so much and I think he would quit. So, who really knows? He could go another 5 years.
