Penn State...what did Paterno know?

It is interesting that the media has come around today on the Paterno issue. The guys on WFNZ actually had the indictment in front of them and read the parts I have been telling you guys to read.

Announcers says "well if that's all the evidence we have then nobody really knows what role Paterno played. Let's wait for the facts to come out."

Ya think?

Most of the speculation thus far is simply overreaching the evidence at hand.

I was thinking that way until Mac talked about the bomb that was dropped today which includes the rumor that a cover up was offered in exchange for retiring. If that's true then I have no sympathy for any of them. Even a little knowledge of the incidents should have been enough to go to the police. Not just the university authorities.

UH OH.

RT @MrPelicanPants: (from a PSU Prof) "This story will take a John Grisham-like turn when racial makeup of victims are released" in 72hrs.

I'm not too sure what this means. My first thought is however, A professor has knowledge of the situation?! How in the world has this been going on for 15 years?

I missed that but its all a wicked web.

I think Paterno may have been intimately involved with this and should fry if he was.

On the other hand I could see him saying "I'm a 75 year old football coach whose job it is NOT to figure out what some guy who doesn't work here anymore is doing in the showers. I am going to distance myself as much as possible and let other people do their jobs."

You see this type of thing all the time in the corporate world. People see a situation that raises all types of red flags and want to not get involved for plausible deniability. It's cowardly but hardly illegal.

    • Man, I havent posted in a while, happy to see the forum is alive and well!  Really excited about this upcoming season, and this draft class!  Lee Hunter will be an instant fan favorite, i might go ahead and purchase his jersey.  Will be interesting to see what we do at Receiver, a lot of talent and a lot of bodies, does XL get traded, or do they give him a shot this season to see what he has?
    • Goings was good too. 
    • I appreciate TMo, he has been a rock. Plug and play, set and forget. But there are stories that they ice his knees or knee in game when he goes to the sidelines. If it is that bad that is pretty rough and it probably won’t get better with age and more wear.     You want to pay him, and commit that money, I shouldn’t object. But let’s at least roll him over a year at a time.  He isn’t a particularly good long term gamble.
