began with a conclusion and then went looking for supporting evidence. IMO, it’s easy for a lot of people to blame Joe because he’s dead.

Just a reminder that the Penn State football program enabled a child rapist for

They honored Paterno at a game last year and they deny anything happened.

The only thing I ever saw that implicated Joe was an e-mail that wasn’t

Here is the problem. An assistant coach, mike mcqueary, saw Sandusky rape a child and reported it to Paterno. He

OK. My memory is fuzzy. Not hasty.

Also Paterno passed away when the investigation was ongoing

Or could be that it was convenient to try to pin blame on a guy who wasn’t

I'm not personally convicting the guy and I doubt Freeh's client

BlackBart

You need to read the report. He knew. He knew and let Snadusky take a kid with him to a bowl game.

And they constantly whine how hard the NCAA was on them despite the punishment

One of the big dilemmas in college sports. USC reaps the benefits of foul play

I view it more political. USC's actions were incredibly minor compared to PSU

And now his son is accused.

Ugh. That probably man's the son was abused.

Son confessed iirc. Guilty and awaiting sentencing.

Better than nothing. Some on here still defend him/PSU so it helps.

IceCreamButt

Most people - players, fans and even coaches over the years had nothing to do

gwalker

9/23/17 8:55pm

The Penn state program and fans deny anything happened. They are guilty.

SandYFan

9/23/17 8:57pm

That is a false and idiotic statement

Ulysses14

9/23/17 8:59pm

Because you say so? Nope.

SandYFan

9/23/17 9:00pm

Hmmm. Except I know plenty of PSU fans who say otherwise. You live in PA too?

Visit the college football subreddit. Plenty of deniers there.

So, why did they take down Paterno's statue?

Again, McQueary testified in court that he saw Sandusky raping a kid in the shower. He told Paterno. Paterno did nothing
