A Pennsylvania judge said Tuesday he would decide later whether to allow a lawsuit filed against the NCAA by the family of longtime Penn State football coach Joe Paterno and others to go forward.
A new report commissioned by Joe Paterno's family challenges the conclusion by former FBI director Louis Freeh that the late Penn State coach conspired to hide child sex abuse allegations against former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky.
Penn State's president is methodically seeking input from trustees, alumni and other constituencies about the fate of the Joe Paterno statue outside the football stadium.
The latest million dollar questions surrounding Penn State are “Should the Joe Paterno statue be taken down?” and “Should the Penn State football program receive the death penalty?” It is the harshest penalty a school can receive. Does Penn St. deserve it?
Penn State says it will respond within days to the NCAA's demand for information as the governing body decides whether the university should face penalties after the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.
Since sports always seems to defy any kind of moral compass, don’t you feel it’s time that a message is sent to the sports world in particular and to society a a whole? Handing down the death penalty to Penn State sends a message to the sports world know that this type of behavior that allows administration officials to stand on the sidelines while immoral acts are being committed, all in the name of saving the reputation of a sports program, will not be tolerated.
The president of the NCAA says he isn't ruling out the possibility of shutting down the Penn State football program in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.
