Nebraska better rape Penn State this Saturday. They are a better team than Penn State and they haven't had to deal with a mid-week coaching change. Although, based on recent play-calling, that might be a negative.

If JoePa gets fired for using the chain of command but nothing more, shouldn't the grad assistant, who is now a recruiting coordinator, get fired for doing the same?

Hmm...


100% agree!

Best line of the news conference. Figured it was just some radical kid from the school newspaper, tryin' to be heard on that shitty Sportscenter.

This dude on SC telling us this is a monumental event that we will remember where we were on this night forever is stupid.

As it is sad that this actually happened to the kids of course.

but to tell me that I am affected by Paterno being fired????? I could careless. In fact I am glad he is gone. Never like the guy as a coach.

Good move by the Board for sure. Dude was a walking fossil.

The talking heads have gone completely retarded. It is a damn shame all of this came out on a Wednesday and not, like, NFL Sunday. Then we would hear about it for two seconds and we'd move on.

There would likely be some collateral damage in terms of coaches that didn't have anything to do with it, but I think it needs to be a 100% flip in order for recruits to be willing to buy in. If you put a name like (god I hate typing this because it's so cliche at this point) Urban Meyer in position, the recruits are still going to show up.
agree 100% and i said this about 10 pages ago.

its absolutely what needs to happen and should have happened yesterday.

the thing that i have a hard time with is McQ could have completely turned his back and pretended he never saw anything and still been on the fast track to a great job at Penn St. Instead he made the decesion to report it to Joe Pa with the faith that Joe Pa would do the right thing and he never did, or did enough. my problem is there might be 1 or 2 or a dozen other coaches/players who saw stuff and just never said or did anything that might still be around.
Not sure I get this. The only difference in Joe's situation and McQ's situation is that McQ saw the act first hand.

Here's to hoping that the college kids don't act like college kids... oh boy.

1 more game... really? He's fired. We want Joe... really? He's fired. Next up... Occupy Paternoville.

So after bashing Joe Paterno most of the night, Trevor Matich just confused the hell out of me.

LoL, the media is reporting that the students who believe that the BOT caved in to mass media, are now upset with the media and yelling at the media that are present and a group gathered and flipped over a media van. Shocking.

Heading to sleep... as I said, hopefully these college kids don't act like college kids. I don't condone it, but I do find the irony in the media van getting flipped to be pretty funny. I really think ESPN is trying to feed the frenzy and create something more out of the gathering than really would be there. That part is kind of sickening to listen to. It's like they are begging for something more. Hopefully they don't get it.

A few things from Twitter....

@JacobTamme: If u r a man & u see a sexual assault, don't TELL anybody. Go FIGHT the attacker & help the victim. Then tell the police, not your boss

@TheoFleury14: Hey survivors of sexual abuse you are not alone. The world is finally standing up and taking notice. May you all be empowered. God speed. (He will actually be on the CBS Morning show tomorrow to discuss this; I support his work 100% in these causes)

@DanielTosh: if you feel bad for joe paterno it's because you are an awful person

@sportspickle: a football coach loses his job over a child rape scandal = LET'S RIOT!!! #NotRhodesScholars

@MattJonesCBB: Lost in tonight's hoopla is report from ESPN's @schadjoe that Paterno was not told of rape or sodomy,, but told instead of touching/fondling

Does not matter.. you dont know of any unwarranted touching of any kind to a child and just go about your business. His excuse of I told someone will not make him innocent
