Oh...and about the Paterno family lawsuit against the NCAA...
The Paterno family (Paterno estate) will win...and win quite easily...contrary to the talking-heads in the media
In the 1990’s case of Tarkanian v NCAA....the US Supreme Court ruled that the NCAA must give “due process” when dealing with individuals (coaches)
There was no “due process” given to Paterno when they stripped his wins from him. Also, he never signed the “consent” with the NCAA to accept any punishment (obvious reasons)
Paterno’s family is probably already quite aware of this...and it would behoove the NCAA to re-instate the wins....or face their findings be overturned by a court. I do not think the NCAA or Louis Freeh want that Freeh Report to be scrutinized in a court of law....it could result in all the punishment against the school be nullified.
I appreciate your knowledge of the case Nole, and your compassion for the spot we’re in.
This is insane. That people think some of the things they do of Joe Paterno boggles my mind and makes me wonder if I’m in some sort of bizarro world.
As for the ncaa, what we need is for a judge to take one of the cases (partial b.o.t., Paterno family, Letterman, Faculty). That would bring the freeh report into a court of law - and that would be embarrassing for mr. freeh because his report (in a court of law) amounts to nothing.
