For Pete's sake. This was a 2005 email that the newspapers got a copy of. And she resigned in 2007. Paterno's special treatment rule for football players was documented in the Sports Illustrated Special Issue last week. He was a hypocrite when it came to his morality stance. This has nothing to do with feminazis or people crawling out of the woodwork to make false claims because the the Sandusky affair.

We're just finally seeing who Joe Paterno really was, without the public relations cover-up to which Penn State treated us for decades.

And read what she says about working with the coach at Connecticut and how his program was transparent and not a cover-up of players’ improper activities. She’s not out to get all athletic men. She says Paterno was a special problem.

I am no defender of Paterno in keeping the lid on a child molester scandal. I think the NCAA should condsider the death penalty for the football program. What Penn State apparently did was a helluva lot worse than what SMU did.

But putting the football coach in charge of player disclipline is pretty traditional. That’s the way it was at my high school, and the punishment one would get tended to be a lot harsher and more physical than if it came from the principal’s office.
