Hey jb729, welcome to Free Republic.
Joe got many of those wins because he didn't turn Sandusky in. How does anyone figure what Joe's record ought to be had he done the right thing at the beginning?
““Make it two weeks...”
Make it 20 years.
You got it right.
Also, the NCAA has egg on its face from letting PSU skate until now, especially given what they've done to other programs.
I'll predict the suit will be dropped or dismissed after the NCAA and PSU admins clue in the out-of-the-loop trustees filing suit.
When alerted in 2001 of a potential incident, he had the witness meet with the campus authorities responsible for Jerry Sandusky.
Oh shoot, your house of misinformation is collapsing.
“When evidence is finally discovered....”????
jb729...I believe most of the evidence went down the drain in the Men’s locker-room.
JoePa looked the other way and let Sandusky remain on campus for years.
There is a special place in Hell for those at PSU that looked the other way.
The NCAA regulates competitive advantage. Punishing a university for an ex-faculty members crimes is beyond anything in their by-laws
There’s thousands of incidents involving various schools having faculty members committing crimes. Where are these schools punishments?
If you cite the alledged coverup, please tell me which page of the Louis Fraud report contains the evidence? Thanks in advance.
Some photoshopped picture of Joe’s statue really doesn’t hurt my feelings or change my position. What I would like you to do is point to the irrefutable evidence in the Freeh report that shows Joe Paterno orchestrated a coverup. If you can do that, I’ll join you in calling Joe Paterno a scumbag that is burning in hell.
Thanks.
Penn State accepted the punishment. Do you want the findings spread across the nation.......
As far as letting Sandusky remain on campus for years, perhaps you should educate yourself with professor emeritus and who is responsible for adminstering it. Iron-clad teachers union contracts are what allowed Sandusky on campus for years, not the grand mastermind poohbah 80 year old Joe Paterno who couldn’t get through a press conference without incoherent babbling.
A President without the authority to write checks accepted the punishment.
If the “findings” are what Louis Freeh found, then YES! I definently want the findings spread across the nation! He found nothing!
LOL!
I hope the NCAA come back with even tougher sanctions.
Good move. The sanctions were pathetically knee-jerk / lynch mob. What was the point of taking away all the football players’ wins since 1998? They didn’t cheat, and they certainly had nothing to do with the rest of the homosexual pedophile scandal.
The sanctions should have amounted to money. Lots and lots of money. I hope the players get their wins back and the school gets 100X the fine amount instead. Then, completely shut down the football program for 10 years (and thereby starve every other sport the school sponsors).
Money talks.
The fact is, McQueary never told Paterno that he witnessed an actual rape. But the old man was creeped out enough by the possibility that his former assistant coach may have done something "inapproriate" that he did indeed send the matter up the chain of command to people who were supposed to look into it further. Those people failed to do so.
It's scary, all the big-mouth nobodies who love to crucify Paterno because they apparently think it's no big deal to point at a man and accuse him of being a homosexual pedophile. They never consider the ramifications of a mistake. (Obviously, Sandusky actually did turn out to be a homosexual pedophile, we now know.) But imagine if an accusation against a man turned out to be totally false, the result of a complete misunderstanding or even malice? What would they say then? "Oops. Sorry about that, heh heh."?
As far as I'm concerned, you don't make that kind of accusation against a man unless you see it with your own two eyeballs. Paterno did not. McQueary (apparently) did, although even that is by no means clear. (Anyway, I still don't get how McQueary, who was at the time in 2002 a 28-year-old employee of the university, has skated on this thing so far?)
All those years went by and no victim (or victim's guardians) ever came forward (aside from the woman in 1998 whose son came home with a wet head)? How is that possible? Like Paterno said, Sandusky had everybody fooled. Homosexual pedophiles are sneaky that way, by nature. I don't know how the cops investigate accusations of child molestation, but I suspect they do it very quietly and carefully. Actual victims coming forward would certainly propel the case.
Anyway, Sandusky didn't get away with decades of homosexual pedophile rape because Joe Paterno and a couple of other university officials looked the other way - - Sandusky got away with homosexual pedophile rape for decades because a hundred people, including his family and friends, his Second Mile associates, university donors and benefactors, and reporters looked the other way. Hell, even The Creamery made fun of Sandusky's affection for young boys with their "Sandusky Blitz" ice cream dish.
But no - - small people have more fun laying everything at the feet of Paterno.
FRegards,

<>They want the statue, the wins, the money, the scholarships, and the good times all returned to Happy Valley.<>
And they want to know where the assets and records of The Second Mile are and where Dr Jack Raykowitz is and why Freeh forgot to interview him, and a lot more here:

<>how to recognize it when it’s staring you right in the face.<>
How about staring this right in the face:
http://notpsu.blogspot.com/2012/03/the-second-mile-questions.html
and explain why Dr Jack Raykowitz and the Second Mile were never investigated by Freeh???
When you drain $60 million out of a program, cuts have to be made in that program -- taking away salaries for trainers, coaches, managers, amenities, etc
