Easily the biggest in college sports history. SMU pales in comparison. When people talk about collegiate athletic scandals, PSU will come up first in every conversation.

It's not really a sports story. Way more than that. Seems it wasn't only personnel in the athletic dept who knew about it.

How in the hell do you think JoPa is going to be the only goat? The president of the University is already out or will be out tomorrow according to previous reports. You think the AD and others would survive this?

That's what ive been preaching.


Dude, two went down yesterday. Paterno isn't the goat.

This will be like a death in my family. Rural PA took much of their identity from JoePa and Penn State. They always held their heads up because they might be never-graduated coal miners but they were also Penn State.



I think this is what a lot of people don't understand about why Penn St fans feel the way they do. You can't just switch gears and say frick everything I've known all my life.

Hopefully they understand he needed to go.

that's what i am saying. everyone is blaming the assistant like he is stopping a one time deal. everyone know he was playing with little boys, for a very long time, and no one did a damn thing about it.

A janitor saw the same thing around that time (98) and reported it, and they basically made him unremember it.

like a pedophile telfon don or some shite
