Does this mean Joe Paterno won't be answering anymore questions?Comment

It is a shame to see such an Icon as Paterno go out like this. He apparently did tons of good things for the university and was obviously respected and loved by his student athletics.
While at the same time there is no excuse for his lack in following through once the situation was brought to his attention. He acted, but it was the very minimum he could have done. He was the Coach! He was responsible for all his boys. Especially for their safety.
There is even probably little doubt that this whole damning episode even hastened his passing.
What a sad and unfortunate situation all around.Comment

the "powers that be" knew about Sandusky years before the McQueary incident. I do not know if Joe knew back then, but my guess is that he did.Comment

Penn State to pay $59.7 million to settle Sandusky sex abuse claims
Penn State announced Monday it will pay $59.7 million to settle claims by 26 young men who said they were sexually abused by former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky, capping a year of negotiations.
News of some of the settlements has been trickling out in recent months. The university said six claims are still outstanding. It has rejected some of them and is in talks to settle the others.
“We hope this is another step forward in the healing process for those hurt by Mr. Sandusky, and another step forward for Penn State,” University President Rodney Erickson said in a statement.
“We cannot undo what has been done, but we can and must do everything possible to learn from this and ensure it never happens again at Penn State.”Comment
