What a mess–but at least the administration is acting. Joe Paterno certainly brought PSU out of the cow pasture and into the big time of college football– but like all powerful football coaches the law or university administration could not reign him in–sorta like Woody at Ohio State who self immolated against Clemson by punching a Clemson player on the sideline on national TV then knocking a TV tower down.

OSU wisely got rid of the too big to fail coach.

The PSU situation is different–they at all costs needed to hush this up and Paterno had to be the leader–just retire the guy and continue the cover.

Comes out everyone knew all about this inside the football program and throughout the town–just wink wink–JoPa would handle it.

Well JoPa finally got his just reward– he traded his integrity for child abuse–just too bad he is 84 and just about senile that he really doesn’t understand what he did now.

Not only that but his whole staff knew about this sordid mess–so they should have no future anywhere in college football.

In a previous post I gave a pass to McQueary who witnessed the rape and ran to call his father, then Paterno when he should have stopped the rape going on–he was no teenager but 28 and quite a big man–should have beat the crap out of the pervert.

Now the final question–Paterno living in college provided house right on campus–kick his sorry ass out. Wonder what else JoPa did thru the years cutting corners.
