I'm sorry but this stinks of the vendetta the BOT had against Joe.

I mean they called him to fire him over the phone.

My parents attended Penn State, I attended Penn State. I love the institution, but not after this.

I am done.

I feel for the kids on the football team, what a circus. This is a tragedy of the first degree.

I am done. No season tickets renewals, no giving, no support. I'll use my degree for professional reasons but I disassociate myself from the university.

Sounds like they need a John Currie there

Crazy way for JoePa to end his career. A humongous black eye on the face of a man whose only blemish up to this point has been his GIANT rough ridin' NOSE.

^what I would tweet if I were a tweet-guy

JoPa has been guilty of similar hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil behavior with his players for years and years.

I think the kids just have shitty grades and want to disrupt the semester....finding any reason to riot...they're tearing up campus like Sandusky tore up those kids' backdoors and lives....ahhh the symmetry.

Holy crap at the last question. "What do you say about the board gunning for Paterno since 2004 and you're using this as an excuse to finally finish that?"

Holy rough ridin' eff Pennsylvania is terrible.

My god there's been hundreds of students and scores of media camped out at his house, how in the holy hell do you think they could have fired him in person? Also with the nature of the situation why do you think he deserves that right?

How do you think this makes the victims and their families feel? I mean they are cleaning house of people who knew of their abuse and did nothing, and then thousands take to the streets to protest the firings?

I think Penn State should give the victims full rides to whatever college they want as part of this settlement that will inevitably come.

ESPN reported that he was given a phone number by messenger and that number had two BOT members on the other end who did the deed.

That is a CHICKEN crap way to fire this coach.

Bring him in, get to him with police escorts either way.

That's why I have decided to announce my retirement effective at the end of this season. At this moment the Board of Trustees should not spend a single minute discussing my status. They have far more important matters to address. I want to make this as easy for them as I possibly can.

eff you JoePa...trying to be noble about stepping down, as if it were for any other reason then to spare the BOT from "discussing his status." eff you straight to hell. He just wanted to do it on his terms, no matter the circumstances and the BOT said eff you. If he were able to stay and finish the season it would only diminish the focus and make it more of a circus than it already will be. BOT was right.

This is what you happen when you have an isolated University with its complete identity tied to a football program and a coach. The things we complain about with tucks are ten-fold there. That city is smaller and more isolated than Manhattan but the University is much larger. Tonight we see an extreme example of the dangers of group think. People with sane opinions will only speak off of the record for fear of being beaten up.
