Message: [QUOTE="ljmilman, post: 70116, member: 912"] 1) Joe is a borderline deity at PSU, but if the guy may or may not even have legitimate control of his own football team anymore, what makes you think that the administration would basically succumb to his every desire on things like this? 2) I have to imagine that a lot of this is [I]because[/I] Sandusky was a longtime friend. I would think that if something like this happens with your good friend, a quick reaction would be disbelief. Doesn't excuse Paterno, not even a little bit, but I think it's a bit of an assumption to claim it was all about his personal reputation. [/QUOTE]
