| 3 weeks 2 days ago | I know about all the problems... |
...but after reading the article I can't help but be really really excited for the first college football playoff. It's true there really isn't any minimizing the importance of the changes taking place. This is huge. |

Like I said, I hope I'm wrong |

I obviously know he is next on the chart at the moment but I'm not exactly confident Miller can handle the job. I hope I'm wrong. Maybe Burzynski will move over you never know. |

Great to see a kid mature beyond his years. Looking forward to him calling the plays for the lines of the future. As to who'll play C in 2013 while he (hopefully) redshirts....that I don't know... |

He is quickly becoming one of my favorite recruits in the class - not just from his background, which is obviously compelling - but he clearly has a maturity beyond his years and has his head in the right place |

Love these things |

My thoughts are summed up perfectly in this article: http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/colleges/20120124_Sam_Donnellon__Nam... |

so you don't think a head coach would have a close relationship with his DC of 30 years? As to the "10 years of seeing him come and go" part, see my comment above re everyone else who saw him "come and go" and could have prevented it |
| 17 weeks 3 days ago | Fine |
Then where is the vitriol and the hatred for the innumerable other people who were in a position to potentially prevent this? When McQueary dies will he have people proclaiming him forever tarnished and be upset when they say nice things about him at his funeral? What about Bradley, or the AD, Sandusky's grocer, the other people at Sandusky's charity, everyone who ever had contact with Sandusky? They are at least as liable, and yet people seem more upset at Paterno because he'd done more and built up a better reputation before that time. It's was a difficult and terrible situation. He didn't do the right thing. I hope all the people bashing him would do the right thing in the same situation, maybe most would, but certainly not all. |

it's what happened. He made a terrible horrendous mistake by not reporting his friend he was told was molesting children. Is that specific enough? I don't think he had a malicious intent to harm children, but given the extent of his former friend's treachery I'm sure he wished he'd done more. I think he is guilty of not fully grasping how evil his friend of 30 years was. It's not an easy thing to do or an easy situation to be in, so while I don't excuse him at all, it's not enough to look in hindsight using moral absolutes and say he was a terrible person. He's not the one who raped any kids, and he is the person who guided many, many, of his players with integrity and class. That should not be forgotten and can be rightly honored in his name. |
