Buckeye fan here, very classy thing to write in the title. Nice to see fans of all schools acknowledge this.

Greatest coach in history, RIP Joe! The U family will always respect you for beating us in the Championship, and always being classy. Huge loss for collegiate sports.

R.I.P, Joe Pa, his legacy to me is that he was a great football coach, great man and a great molder of young men to make them into great people! I see his Legacy when I see our HC Al Golden, cause I know without Joe Al wouldn't be the man of great integrity that he is today!

My thoughts and prayers are with the entire Penn State community who have lost an icon...he accomplished much in his life and did so with a humble perspective...I don't think there will ever be another coach would would be as committed to a single organization as Joe Pa was to PSU...over 50 years...never again will we see that. He didn't let money or fame go to his head. I hope he is remembered for ALL that he has done and not for the past few months of his life.
RIP Joe Paterno...you were a great man and a great leader of men.
The U and The Strip - life doesn't get much better than this! P.S. - I will always stand with The []_[]

It's really amazing to see all of the well-wishes from fans of other programs. Joe was truly an amazing man.
If I might - if any of you are willing, please consider donating to THON, as Joe requested. Let's make this one a great year.
