Think about the guy who witnessed a child being sexually assaulted and his frist thought is to go to his superiors.
My first thought would have been to go to the equipment room, grab a blunt object, end the rape and possibly destroy the "member" of the pedophile.
Those who got a settlement when they were fired should have to pay every dime they got to the victims for keeping quiet for a dozen + years, that includes the 5.5 million for "Papa Joe" whose inaction is reprehensible.
The Freeh report is so damning, it's a wonder the school can still function.
Everyone involved deserves to be charged both in criminal and civil court.
Take everything they've got!
I take no issue with Joe Paterno as he did his part with the second hand knowledge that he received.
Please just answer this: A little girl gets molested by Mr. A and Mr B covers it up. Then another little girl gets molested and another and another........and Mr. B covers up each instance and he isn't culpable? Had he stopped the actions of Mr A, several little girls would not have been molested by Mr A.
Wow dude.......you're evil and pretty ignorant. I think you've just taken the prize for stupidity.
Friends?
Such a sick twisted egomaniac as him deserves no halo. Did he call 911? NO!
WIth both criminal and civil cases upcoming, they're going to need more insurance than they've got.
The taxpayers are paying for the court proceedings, the defense attorneys for the state school, and the restitution to the victims. I guess it wouldn't both anyone other than PA residents, we are footing his bill.
At the high school level other educational programs are cut while funding for the 30 or 40 football players is increased. Cut the orchestra and art program to get new turf on the feld.
The outrageous million dollar salaries for football coaches is often double or triple of the Dean's and school Pres. The athletic scholarships are not free, the entire student body pays more for every single free ride. Then they have to pay other students like me to do their work while they go exerise and party.
The entire scandal shows just how much the school cared about their students, especially the email and hand written notes recently released. Not at all, many many people knew what was going on and hushed it away for their Friday Night lights.
Penn State should be an example of what happens when a school puts their athletic program above the safety of children.
Most years, the football program at the University of Tennessee makes a profit to support all other sports both male and female. Fortunately Pat Summitt build a dynasty in women's basketball to help with the costs. Most years the Atheletic program has contributed their surplus as high as 5 million dollars to the general school fund. I know most colleges and universities don't but we and I know Texas do. This and we have not had our normal top flieght teams in football lately.
I live in LA and work in Hollywood in the entertainment industry. Do you really feel these incomes are justified? However, the social pressure for our escapes into neverland is so great we tend to look the other way.
I am sure the NCAA will act, though I don't agree they specificly have that authority. I believe they will have the football program suspended for one year. Players will have the option to transfer to another institution but I think many will stay and just be students for a year. Those with the most to lose wil...

Those with the most to lose will be upperclassmen and most will probably transfer if they are peak level players. After all, for those premier talents, college is just a stage to show off their talents for Sunday ball.
I played basketball and softball outside of school run privately by the CYA (Catholic Youth Org). I'm glad to say I'm not a Penn Alumni, since my undergrad classes were during the late 90's.
Is is mostly paid by our property tax dollars plus tuition, avg spending per student is NOT equal from a teacher's and a homeowners perspective.
This state school shamed more than the Penn State "heros" of the NCAA, it shamed then entire school especially those there during the time of these incidents. Even the innocent question themselves, what if they could have done something to help that messed up kid? TRUST is lost.
NO ONE CALLED 911?
What kind of people are they?
No I don't agree with the incomes of many athletes, celebrities, entertainers, CEO's and yes coaches but they do have a right to earn what people are willing to pay. I don't envy them.
The NCAA will do something but whatever it does will be invented and not a part of their by-laws, by-laws that will change by vote of members very soon. The victims will carry their scars forever. The school will recover someday and this will be a bad memory. Is this real justice? So very sad for everyone.
The insanity of the protestors rioting over decision to fire Paterno have now been replaced by protestors trying to rip down his statue.
Chaos rules at Penn State these days.
The times sure are a chaninging.
