    Pure speculation BUT... on 104.5 the zone they brought this up. Why would he still be there?

    Could it be because he has more dirt? Could it be that some of the higher-ups at Penn State told him "hey you have a job, shut up and be quiet."


    I think there will be more disturbing details to come out.

    ^You forgot to include your source, Alex:

    "Source: Crazy drunk guy that claims he worked in resources (wtf?) for a long time and sees stuff like investigations 'and junk'."

    :) It actually was a decent point. I swear half the callers on that show are 4x's over the legal alcohol limit though.

    NCAA should take away all of his wins from his past 10 seasons.

    Anybody think if the Titans lose out, that they'd bring Paterno in to show Munchak how it's done? Jim Tressel is getting a chance with the Colts.

    Tressel still has some breath in his lungs. Paterno's barely hanging on at this point.

    This is just a bad bad situation. The worst part about all this is that there are a bunch of people there that had at least heard about what was going on and did nothing about it. Even if it was just a rumor that there was shady stuff going down, more should have been done the first time it ever came up. Something tells me that people there know more about it than they're letting on.

    Firing Paterno was done mainly to prove that the University (as a business move) was gonna do something about it to satisfy the negative press. I don't follow Penn State at all but I know that Paterno had been there since the beginning of time but he seems to be the fall guy. He admits that he should have done more, and he probably should have. Something tells me he's not the only one who should have done more.

    I wonder what I'd have done if I was one of these boys.

    I mean at 12 I knew what was up, and would never let some perv touch me. I'd have told my mama, and that would have been the end of that chit head.
