Wins stripped from Paterno, PSU

    How about when Joe said he didn't know anything about 1998 in his washington post interview? That's a lie. Or when he said he reported it and never discussed it again? That's another lie.

    I was correcting the original answer to the question...I wasn't saying Joe didn't lie to the washington post. I would just like to argue facts and every detail out there. I would rather here about everything done wrong by every person connected to JS...

    The reality is that Joe's testimony is in the gray area and not enough for perjury...if it was the AG would have released a statement making it clear that Joe may have perjured himself...it is within her right to do so...

    It should be from 2001 as 98 was investigated by police and the DA and nothing came out of it.

    Agree with this. Taking away wins from 1998-2001 is bush. Then again, the only way the NCAA is supposed to vacate wins is by playing INELIGIBLE players, like Florida State did, like Ohio State did. They applied their own rule wrong here. Stripping PSU of two Big 10 titles is a bit much. Last time I checked, we weren't on probation and we didn't play ineligible players. I didn't like what he did, but I will still say Joe is the winningest coach in college football history and PSU won two BIG titles, not the bungholes in Columbus. NCAA went against its own rule. Big shocker. Nothing they did during this whole thing went by the book.
