Penn State played Navy this weekend and after the game the teams sang each other’s fight songs. Nittany Lion supporters were touched by this display of sportsmanship, but once more criticized the NCAA ban based on the Freeh report accusing the university and its football program of enabling a child molestor for decades.
Alumni are incensed by the firing of the late Joe Paterno and Graham Spanier without recognizing their complicity in the sex abuse scandal. They express their anger at the situation with a total disconnect to the cause for their shame.
According to ESPN a judge announced that he will sentence Jerry Sandusky on Oct. 9, nearly four months after the retired assistant football coach was convicted in the child molestation scandal.
Sandusky was convicted in June of 45 counts of sex abuse involving 10 boys. Prosecutors said some of the assaults took place on the Penn State campus. Sandusky is likely to receive a sentence that will keep the 68-year-old in prison for life. He is jailed pending sentencing and maintains his innocence.
Ask the boys who were raped in the shower room, if he feels innocent so many years later..
Joe Paterno did nothing to protect those boys and that is the truth no matter how songs the football sings after a game.
