Joe Paterno

For a Sunday morning that is just beginning for many in State College, Pennsylvania many wish this day could already end! Just a few moments ago, the process to remove Joe Paterno's statue from Penn State's football stadium has begun. Also announced, lingering penalties soon to be announced by the NCAA that will turn the Penn State athletic department upside down.

The alumni, fans, and citizens of the Penn State Nittany Lions community have something new to stress, or rejoice over: the removal of Joe Paterno's statue. This removal will no less, eliminate any ties or memories of the man many looked up to and worshiped for many years.

As news broke on Thursday about a report on the sex abuse scandal that’s rocked Penn State, those on the university campus who gathered around TVs in the student center to watch the announcement found they weren’t able to — because those televisions suddenly switched to a public access channel instead.

An investigation into the Penn State child sex-abuse scandal involving former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky has revealed that legendary head coach Joe Paterno and other university leaders “repeatedly concealed critical facts” that could have stopped the abuse long before it was made public.

The long awaited report put together by former FBI director Louis Freeh is finally released! This was the most important piece of the puzzle that was missing for such a long time. This report details, in full, what exactly took place in the locker rooms of Penn State University, who was there, and how it could've been prevented.

After CBS news reporting last eveing that Joe Paterno had died, a family spokesman came forward and said he had not died.  CBS news retracted its statement, but now its confirmed Paterno is dead.
