Penn State Scandal

Sounds like Spanier may be out tomorrow, before Joe even.

Looks like a lot of support is popping up around around campus from students for Paterno. Very mixed feelings I am sure.

Curley (who is still employed somehow even though Sandusky was his responsibility) and Schultz should be the first to go, Spanier second then McQueary then Paterno. He is the only one that did the right thing at all, even if it was the bare minimum. There is a lot of blame to go around, but out of all of these guys Paterno is the last on the totum pole.

Yeah, it's going to be a disaster. I am thinking about going, tickets have gone up quite a bit since this morning with this almost certainly his last home game.

shit, I didnt even think about it being his last home game. going to be fascinating to watch if he's allowed to coach. Will the team rally around him or be demoralized from all of the nonsense? How will the crowd react to the team and coaches?

The circumstances of this scenario are certainly unfortunate, but these types of games are why sports is so great. Talk about high drama.

Not to mention it's a big fucking game (yes I know this should all be secondary with all that's transpired over the last few days)

To me it falls right on the lap of Paterno he could of just called the cops the 1st time he heard of the crimes , wouldn't you if you knew your good friend was doing that to kids :?: i know i would and probably beat the fuck out of him ....with one phone call he could of saved other kids from getting hurt ....

So its his fault more than the guy who saw it and didn't call the cops? Makes a lot of sense. I am not going through this all gain. I think I would have, but I have never been in that situation. He did the bare minimum but he did more than anyone else.

Yeah, it is certainly going to be interesting. I have no idea how the team will react, but most of his players typically love him, so we will see. It is going to be a really strange atmosphere and I have no idea what to expect. What does he say to his team in practice today? How does he and the rest of the staff keep them focused? Football is definitely secondary, but it is an interesting storyline. Fuck, while unlikely, Penn State has a chance to win the Big Ten.

Everyone is at fucking fault, there is no question. But he is the only one that did anything about it. Everyone else covered it up and lied. He did not do anywhere near close to enough, clearly, but he did more than anyone else, people who were actually responsible for Sandusky and the athletic department. I am clearly very biased and nothing is going to change that.

I think he's gonna resign tomorrow or Thursday. There's no way he coaches Saturday. If he does, he's thumbing his nose at everybody from the boys who were assaulted to the boosters and fans who support him. It's over for Joe.

Tom Corbett is in town.

I agree how could he coach under this black cloud ....

Concern with the game is disgusting at this point. Who gives a rats ass what a fucking football team does right now. Children were abused, grown men new about it and did nothing. Anyone that cares about how the Penn State football team does against Nebraska right now is absurd.......

I hope they let Joe feel what all the boys after he found out felt. Then and only then should he have the privilege of coaching. What gets me is if I didn't do what he didn't do and all this came out, I wouldn't even feel I deserved to coach. I guess we will see a little more glimpse of his and his supporters character before this week is out one way or another.

You've got to be kidding. It's over for him. He doesn't deserve to finish out the season. As of right now, November 8, 2011, his college football accomplishments mean NOTHING and thus the notion of him "going out the right way" or whatever is silly. In time his football accomplishments will come back to the forefront which will be deserved. After all, it's not like HE sexually assaulted anyone. But as of today, right now, he's a disgrace and has to go.
