I'm sorry if I left you with the impression that I'm a "Joe kicked it up to his supervisors so all is okay" guy. I'm still laughing at the Penn State supporters who claim JoePa reported it to the Athletic Director and 'the head of the university police.'

First, if JoePa reported it to Schultz, then JoePa perjured himself before the grand jury. Second, although department of the university police ultimately reported to Schultz, so did Internal Audit, and Buildings and Maintenance, and another dozen departments.

They may well have said JoePa reported it to the Athletic Director and the head of Buildings and Maintenance. After all, it did involve on-campus plumbing.

Keep blaming the dead guy. It looks so good on you.

Might want to check MM's testiomony.

Also, here's a very good, short interview between Paul Finebaum and Jay Paterno (took place an hour or so ago) where Jay sums up the legal issues still very much in place here.

I was just replying to the conversation and hit “reply” while reading your post. I think you are I are in agreement on this, but some others here have a lot of wishful thinking going on.

I am not a Paterno hater. I don’t hate him any more than I would King Lear or any other tragic figure in literature. I think he had a tragic flaw, the need to be in charge at all costs. He wanted to exit the stage only when he, the star-writer-director-producer, decided it was time.

...Q: You indicated that your report was made directly to Tim Curley. Do you know of that report being made to anyone else that was a university official?
Mr. Paterno: No, because I figured that Tim would handle it appropriately....

..I’m assuming this is what you refer to when you speak of Paterno and perjury, that he only spoke to Curley...oddly enough Schultz testified that he was called to a meeting with Curley and Paterno where he was informed by Paterno of Sandusky’s inappropriate behavior in the shower...this was in the GJ transcript, on page 8...

...I guess you could technically call it perjury...kind of stretching it though...
