Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 315450, member: 837"] I'm coming around to the idea of leaving the JoePa statue erect at PSU. I mean, why deprive them of their leader when maybe we can work with the existing statue to more accurately reflect the man and his legacy appropriately. Here are a couple ideas: 1) The players behind him could be running over a copy of the Bill of Rights and the University Handbook to symbolize their ability to play by their own rules 2) Maybe where JoePa's foot is lifted, we could put a sculpture of a kid underneath his foot, as if JoePa is trampling him on the way to the field. 3) this one's my personal favorite -- how about we add his right-hand man, Sandusky, running next to him. Then we can add a bunch of children scattering and running scared in front of them. And we can add a plaque -- "Penn State Football: Just Horsing Around!" I don't know, then we don't have to destroy the statue but we add a bit of context. Everybody wins. [/QUOTE]
