don't hold your breath. If he's good enough they won't hold it against him. If fact, the NFL was the driving force, most likely, in him wanting to transfer to a national contender. You shouldn't blame him. Blame your former head coach and school administrators. Not trying to be a dick but I'm looking at it from a neutral perspective.

Hi folks, I'm interested in compiling a comprehensive list of all of the academic accomplishments of Joe Paterno's football program over the years. Everything. What I am thinking of is to produce a full page ad to place in national newspapers like the Wall Street Journal and the USA Today. The idea is to compile a comprehensive bulleted list of all the academic accomplishments of Joe Paterno's football program throughout the years, including rankings vs. the rest of division 1, and challenge all those who insist Penn State had a win-at-all-costs, football-is-king culture that completely subjugated the university's academic mission to explain how each individual bullet item supports that idea. I envision the challenge addressed to Mark Emmert personally but it would be open to all the haters out there There's some good stuff in last year's football game programs such as numbers of academic all-Americans and grad rates but I need help compiling a comprehensive list that will show overwhelming evidence to show that the idea of a win at all costs football-is-king culture existing at Penn State is a complete and total lie. I want a knockout punch thrown to that slanderous notion and I want it thrown to the chin of Mark Emmert. I have a vision for the design of that ad but will need help putting it together getting it out there an also obviously with funding and hope the PSU community can help with all that. We are at war and this war is a media war and we'll have to fight it on their terms in order to win.
Some other things that we need to get straightened out is that I noticed that Joe's Wikipedia page still features some of Louis Freeh's lies like the notion that Joe orchestrated a cover up for Sandusky and also is still making the debunked claim that Joe lied to the Grand Jury about the 1998 incident. If there's anyone out there who knows Wikipedia it would be very helpful if they go clean that crap up.
Also, does anyone have any idea how to put a stop to Vicky Triponey? Her fingerprints are all over this media onslaught. She was all over the Freeh Report. She was all over Emmert (perhaps literally) and now she'll be all over ESPN. How can we put a stop to her nonsense? I need ideas.
We're at war and we're fighting it without allies. Even our own leadership might have strayed beyond incompetence, ineffectiveness and fecklessness and might be actively working for the other side in direct opposition to PSU's best interests. We need to get organized and start formulating and enacting a coherent resistance and I want to contribute my ideas.
If you havent signed up for premium 247 yet..take my word for it...its worth it!

MIke Fisher was the AG in 1998. He had to authority to take CYS off the case and put the DPW on the case and he also had the inlfuence to have Ray Gricar take over the case personally and take his prosecutor Karen Arnold off the case. It was the state's DPW that wrote the report declaring that Jerry Sandusky was absolutely not a pedophile (ironically the exact same agency that Curley and Schulz would get hit with failing to report Sandusky as a pedophile to in 2001 - the same agency that had already declared their opinion that Sandusky did not fit the profile of a pedophile) and it was that report that played heavily in Gricar deciding not to prosecute in 1998. Fisher was also taking tons of campaign cash out of the 2nd Mile as well as Corbett. Just a few things to chew on.
